Thank you for all the replies. You are all very welcoming.
I have been to DL many times and love it. I get teary leaving. This is our first trip to the east coast. We live in the Pacific Northwest. so Disneyland is not to far of a trip. 19 hours away by car. maybe 3 hours by plane.
We Are so looking forward to this trip. I have 2 children 9 and 6. My son is looking forward to doing the Buzz lightyear ride, and My daughters only concern is that they have all 6 princeses.

We had thought about staying at the all star movie resort. But it will not accomidate 5, my husband my mother myself and then the 2 children. We have never stayed at a DLResort. Disneyland does not offer moderate priced hotes. So this would have been a good opporitunity to try one. We had really heard good things about the NORiverside, the thing is that they are not even quoting prices for February. Write now the price is close to 200 a night. That is alot, I dont know how much time we will spend in the hotel room to justify paying that. any way enough wining. I will look into some of the suggestions that you wonderful disney fans have given. Thank you.
