Happy Magical Birthday

We planned & saved for a year and took the boys to Disneyland to celebrate Carter's 6th Birthday!  It was such a wonderful trip.  Sean and I definitely had just as much (if not more) fun than the boys did.  We told Carter a week before that we were going to see Mickey instead of having a birthday party this year.  He was fine with that!
Carter woke up to birthday gifts from Mickey!

 Disney has people taking photos at all of their major photo op spots, so we got several family pics!  This was just after we got into Disneyland on Oct. 11.  We stopped at City Hall for a special birthday button for Carter.  He got several "Happy Birthday" wishes from strangers throughout the day.  So cool!
 We watched a Star Wars show & even got to see Darth Vader (coming out of the fog here)!

 And see all of the original Iron Man costumes from the movie!  Sean loved this one...

 Yes, we did wait in line for an hour BUT we got to meet Mickey!!!!!!!

 The birthday boy on the Teacups.
 I love these two stinkers!  So glad we rode the Teacups when we did--they were closed for refurbishment the rest of our trip.
 Carter and Davis built their own Light Sabers with their Disney Dollars.

 We ended the big day with dinner in Downtown Disney, but both boys fell asleep before we could finish eating, so it was a very anticlimactic cab ride back to the hotel for us.  BUT, what a birthday to remember!
