What NOT to Wear-Disneyland Style
Our recent trip to Disneyland not only provided my 10 year old with a fabulous birthday memories, but somehow, my camera became filled with disturbing images of bad fashion. While I'm usually not terribly snarky about what others are wearing, there were just too many fashion faux-pas to resist on that lovely January day. Upon exiting the parking tram, the above jeans (circa 1982) were spotted. Pocketless, high-waisted jeans with "v" sewn on and the back and embellished with metal snaps were NEVER a good look-especially with visible panty-lines. I have a feeling if there HAD been pockets in these pants, her lover's hand would have been snuggly ensconced in them!
The next sighting (thank you Rach), was of a lovely teenage girl. In case you can't see, her shirt reads, "I LOVE SHOES, BOOZE, AND BOYS WITH TATTOOS". Her mother must be proud.
This picture doesn't even come close to doing the "real-life" version justice, so you'll have to trust me a bit. The above offender was at LEAST in her early fifties and sporting PURPLE hair, with bleached blonde tendrils curled around her face. Lovely.
Now this is something I'll never understand. Disneyland requires walking-lots of it. WHY in the world anyone would want to wear high-heels is beyond me. Plus, tights with bright yellow shorts are ALWAYS sexy. Right?
This guy was too cute, and obviously aware I was taking his picture. That said, no grown man should wear a t-shirt sporting Donald Duck-even at Disneyland. He's also wearing a nice collection of Disney pins-complete with lanyard. And oh yeah, his wife was wearing Daisy Duck. Awwwww.
"Um, Lady???....I believe this is a family park." I couldn't get a true front shot, but it was tremendous.
Awwww...the lovely newleyweds. Nothing says, "I'm happy to be married" like wearing bride and groom mouse ears. The crack is a nice touch too.

More of The Birthday Boy
The night before Jake's Birthday, we celebrated with a night out to Chili's. Jake opened his presents and shared the sliders with me. Then, it was off to home for his requested "Pizza" cake. Jake had informed me a couple of days before his birthday that his best friend's mom ALWAYS made him whatever cake he wanted for his birthday. Jake asked for a pizza cake and this is what I came up with:
The next day, it was off to Disneyland. What better way to celebrate your tenth birthday than with a day at the happiest place on earth! Because Jake already had a pass, Disneyland gave him a $69 gift card! He thought he'd died and gone to heaven; nope Jake, just Disneyland.
OF COURSE...no day with Rachel would be complete without a celebrity sighting. These two are on this year's American Idol. The guy is Kai, we haven't "met" the girl yet.
My daughter has a fear of roller coasters. This mean mommy made her go on Tower of Terror. As you can see, she was super excited!
The cutest part of the day was when Jake surprised his buddy Maddie with a new pin for her pin-collecting lanyard with some of his money. Jake also started his own pin collection.
