When Chris and I were at Disneyland they were filming the Christmas Day parade!  We had no idea it was happening when we got there and soon realized the park was incredibly packed because of this event.

Apparently I was ridiculously unobservant because we walked right by Nick Cannon and Joey Fatone and never saw either of them.  Demi Lovato also performed in front of the castle later that day and we missed that too.  I can’t wait to watch the parade on Christmas parade to see what we missed.

I completely missed Nick Cannon in this picture at first, but I was probably too busy looking at all the Princesses!

Fortunately there were a few things we were able to catch.  And I got some great sneak peeks of what is to come on Christmas day that I want to share with you along with some amazing Disney Christmas decorations!

Over by It’s a Small World we got a sneak peek of some cute elves that were just passing through.

These boys will be joining in on the fun too!

I only like riding It's a Small World at Christmastime, at Disneyland.

As we walked towards the Matterhorn we were blocked by a few more floats that were passing by…

And last but not least, we stopped by Disney’s California Adventure and snapped a picture of their gorgeous Christmas tree!
