happy birthday, disneyland!

the happiest place on earth is 60 years old today!  while we're not able to go down and join in today's festivities, it gives me a good excuse to trot old some old photos and take a walk down disneyland memory lane.

it all starts here:

we've celebrated countless special occasions here.

 attended lots of exclusive gatherings:

spent lots of quality family time together:

and that castle.  boy, do we love that castle.

well, mostly.

we like disney food, too.

the old lady and i have shared lots of good times here.

we've even had playdates with friends here.

of course, we've done a lot of bonding with other friends too.

and some of my most favorite disney moments have come from running through it at an ungodly hour on a weekend morning.

thanks for all of the wonderful memories so far, disneyland.  here's to many, many more years of fun, friends and family!
