While it was sad to not be able to go to Disneyland during the summer, absence made the heart grow fonder! It was SO fun to return — especially because Lila had grown so much and was much more expressive about everything. In August we went with friends a few times, and even made rope drop for the first time! Now we try for it every time, because it’s SO worth it to be among the first in the park. We run to Peter Pan every time (makes me laugh just thinking about it) and then have Fantasy Land to ourselves for a few hours before the crowds come in. We’re so lucky to live here!
