halterhome: Dancing at Disneyland & My Birthday

January 5, 2013 from November 2-4th, 2012

Grace's dance company got to perform in Disneyland's Dance the Magic Holiday Spectacular and the best part was it fell on my birthday weekend. My birthday & Disneyland are two of my favorite things so together they are PERFECT!

We took Grandma Joyce with us since the boys couldn't join us. I don't think they were too upset to miss all that dance fun. But Look what I found in my suitcase upon arrival. How sweet is my husband?

These pictures are not in any particular order (sory), but the main event was the parade taping on Saturday. Grace's group performed a number to Route 66 (along with hundreds of other dancers). The performance was aired on Christmas morning, but unfortunately, we couldn't spot Grace in the quick pan of the dancers on TV. But here she is up close and gorgeous....

Arizona Angels dancers before going back stage for the day.

See what I mean? Hundreds of dancers, but mine was the prettiest.

Grace rode the Tower of Terror about 6 times...with her dance friends.

We got Grandma Joyce on Space Mountain 3 times!

I thik everyone should get to wear a pin that says it's your birthday on your birthday and everyone else in the workd should say Happy Birthday just like they do at Disneyland. No, I did not wear Ears the whole time, just for this photo. I did wear the pin proudly, though.

One of our favorite rides, Mr. Toad's Wild Ride. Grace does a good impression.

Our room at Disney's Paradise Pier. This was my first time at a Disney property. It was so fabulous having the early access and not having to go through the line at the main gate, that I may never stay anywhere else again.
