@@BallingerFamilyIf I were one of those Disney characters and Luke told me he liked blueberries I would’ve surprised him with something that involved blueberries and I have a lot of wishes for 2023 but my number one wish for 2023 is to surprise luke with blueberry stuff some how🫐🫐🫐
Christopher thank you for working so hard and giving us another long video. I love them so much. The new Disney intro is Iconic. I appreciate all of the details you put in. I can only imagine all of the Easter eggs you throw in videos that I probably miss. So excited to see Disney through your families eyes.
yes, christopher! you are truly a magical king! not just for making sure all your children had a magical time, but for tirelessly working to allow us to live vicariously along with yall! thank you, thank you, thank you christopher! 🫶🏻
@@markbarney9510 I do not think that Christopher has a separate channel. I believe he just has this family channel. Jacob has his own channel and I believe that is called Jacob Ballinger.
I love how reserved Duncan can be. He stands out amongst all of his siblings because of that and I think it’s so cool that he’s so much his own person.
Ahh! This vlog feels so nostalgic. I remember watching and re-watching your Disneyland vlogs years ago when it was just PB&J. It’s so fun to see how happy you all are to be back! ❤❤
Yay! The Ballinger’s at Disney! 🎉 I love how grateful you are being at Disneyland! Your children really appreciate everything they have and get to do! ❤ it’s so beautiful to see you all live life to the fullest! You all seem genuinely happy and thankful for each and every opportunity you have.
i would honestly love having a job dressing up as the characters seeing all the kids get so excited to see them and hug them is seriously the cutest thing and i just hope all the people there appreciate it and love it 🥹❤️ it seems like the best job
Can we just give a big thumbs up to their tour guide for being the coolest guy ever and having no trouble comforting kids and being in family photos?! What a cool dude!
@@ginagarcia1430 you don’t usually have a tour guide when you go!! i’m assuming colleen requested one. less likely to get stopped by fans, faster lines, and there to give tips and ideas!
I am a longtime fan & follower of your whole family but as a disabled person who is mostly bedridden, this has been my favorite thing y’all have done in years. Joy always happens with each vlog and video but this vicarious vacation was like food for my soul. Thank you for sharing your precious family with us… love me some Ballingers xoxo ❤🎉😊
This is making my son and I reminisce about our first trip to Disneyland, last year, when we were in CA for my son's band to march in the Rose Parade. It was both our first time to a theme park ever, and at Christmas time. It was cold and wet, but still so magical for us. We ended up getting to go to Santa Monica Pier and Knott's Berry Farms as well, so we got broken in with theme parks, in just a few days.
What an AMAZING trip. I have such special memories of Disneyland but haven’t been since just before Covid hit. Your vlog makes me want to go again so bad!! What great memories for your kids and family. Just magical!! Thanks for sharing. 💗
Luke is so outgoing and so cute!!! Teddy and duncan are so sweet. And parker just cant resist doing the flips. I love that jacob matched with mom and i love that jessica's mom could go with
I love at around 29:59 when Christopher and Parker are nodding their heads, Phillip their guide in the back joined it. That was so sweet! This has been such a lovely video, thank you for the upload. I’m in the UK and have only really started watching your vlogs properly in the past 6 months. This made me want to visit Disney Land - I’ve never been before!
I'm 12 minutes in and how many times have I cried already because of how excited Luke is? So cute and sweet. What a magical day of memories for your family 💖
I already know that Luke is having Blueberries for breakfast!!! What a wonderful way to enjoy the holiday season. Colleen is such a sweet sister, sister-in-law, and auntie along with Eric. What great memories you will have. Especially seeing that you vlogged it. Teddy will be able to see this someday when he is older!!!
The fact that also Jacob wants to be a part of the character hugs is just wonderful! EDIT: I mean... everyone (but Teddy) wants character cuddles and it's freaking adorable.
this was my first time watch you guys!! luke’s awe and excitement with minnie filled my heart to the top. i was not expecting to cry. poor teddy! i’m glad he warmed up a bit. duncan’s cuddles certainly made mickey’s day. he better be proud of going on the guardian’s ride!! i can’t do that one. parker is such a gentleman! those trampoline trick were super cool. bailey is such a bright, warm kiddo. i hope she got all the autographs she was hoping for. and jacob!! what a rockstar of a friend and brother. what a beautiful family. thanks for taking us along for the ride! “here’s a thing.”
I loved watching the WHOLE video! It legit felt like a movie! I loved it I loved it I loved it! At some points (like the starwars ride) It felt like I was there with you all!! Thanks so much for sharing!! Have a good week and an Excellent year! Happy new year! :D
I am absolutely loving chris’ dedication to the high five sound effect, even in the super long and most probably hard to edit videos they are still there, I just love it 😂😂😂
STUPENDOUS video , Beautiful Ballinger Family 😊❤️ Loved seeing the excitement Luke and Teddy had, just as much as I love seeing my Pre-K students live 1st moments. Seeing life through a child's eyes is beyond amazing. Love you all!! ❤️
I have been smiling for 58:17 long! ❤️Thank you for sharing your experience at Disney! 😍 and thank you Colleen for giving this experience to your family
You can feel them excitement! Lovely to see everyone having an awesome time, just a magical time. I've never been to Disneyland or Disneyworld since I get sick so easily on rides but I love seeing others enjoy them. It brought tears of joy to my eyes to see the kids be so excited to meet the characters like Minnie and Mickey!
Thank you for sharing your adventure with us!!!! I love Disney. I haven't been to Disneyland. I have been to Disney World like 8 times. It never gets old!! Even at my old age of 56!!!
Christopher does a fantastic job of videoing and editing through the kids eyes. Bailey and Jacob really impress me with the characters and the little kids. Not jaded at all!
Christopher, this. was. epic. I loved every minute of it and felt *almost* like I was there! Almost. 😅 I’m not sure if your excitement or Luke’s was more fun to watch but I’m here for it. Thank you for sharing your day with us!
Ok but I know exactly what Chris and Bailey meant when they said “IT SMELLS LIKE WATER” like it takes me RIGHT to the park I could smell it through the screen! Great blog Ballingers. Love from Canada It was awesome to see the littles experience this for the first time and the older kiddos experience it all over again!
The childlike joy and wonder that Christopher had throughout this whole video made my heart so happy! When he said that he was just happy to be there he truly meant it and that is where the magic of Disney comes from!
Haha Duncan is so precious. When you asked him about the characters he was like “yeah..haha..anyway LUKE ARE YOU EXCITED FOR THE CHARACTERS??” Such big brother energy. He definitely seems like an old soul ❤️
In your last Disney vlog, Duncan was obsessed with Pete, and all the characters just wanted to be with him. I'm glad Luke is enjoying these character meets. I wonder if Duncan is obsessed with Pete. If not, you should have him meet Mary Poppins next time and have him talk about the penguins with her.
Lol as a Minnesotan I’m chuckling hard. That the thought of 50 degrees is cold to Jessica. Here 50 is when you can ditch your jacket. Lol loved watching this.
HEY EVERYONE Can we get a HUGE round of applause for Christopher working so hard to put another incredible video together after the amazing Christmas one! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Thank you Christopher! ✨🤩✨ Seriously this vlog is so wonderful! I always love the Disney vlogs! I love everyones reactions to the characters. Even Teddy went from a little scared to liking from a distance it was adorable. 🥰 I hope to one day go to the Disney Parks, I will have to go before I have kids because I have never been there before and I am 30! This needs to happen 😂🤣😂 It’s literally the top thing on my bucket list. These vlogs give me a beautiful view into it like I am there with you guys. ❤️❤🥹❤❤️
It’s so weird bc I still get ready for the beat drop in the intro song where it was when I first subscribed (it was before luke was born) then the song keeps going and I’m like ohhh wait there’s more kids now 😂
Out if curiosity, with every character that came up to you all, did Luke tell every single one how much he loves blueberries? That is adorable. I love disneyland and disney world. I have not been to eother in a very long time. I want to go back so bad one day in the near future.
Luke was adorable! 🥰 And Duncan is always SO cool with his responses. 😉 Chris, thank you so very much for making me feel like I was really experiencing the whole Star Wars experience with you guys! I am bed bound and will never see Disney so that was really special for me. 🥰 Such a fun time!
@Sharon DalSanto colleen paid for the vip tour guide. I think there's a set price and you can have up to 10 or 12 people. It's pretty expensive but it's supposed to be really nice.
Growing up where you did, I love Disneyland just as much as you and Colleen. It’s so fun seeing the kids’ reactions. Luke was especially adorable. Thank you for taking us along. ❤❤❤
❤️🏰❤️ Just the intro has me in the tears!! Love the old clips of the kids growing up at Disneyland!!! As a fellow SoCal native and former Disney cast member, I totally get how important growing up with Disneyland is to us all!! Thanks for sharing your memories ❤️
Christopher's reactions take the cake! Lol It was great seeing how the kids enjoyed it, but Christopher was definitely in his happy place, and it showed.
I went to Disney World in Florida about 5 years ago and watching this is just bringing back floods of memories! I had forgotten the magical feeling that surrounds the whole place and this video has brought me right back! I can’t stop smiling! 😊
Telling Minnie he likes blueberries is my favorite thing ever
He made sure to tell EVERY character! It was the sweetest! 💗
@@BallingerFamily Luke and Teddy are Mickey Mouse & Minnie Mouse
@@BallingerFamilyIf I were one of those Disney characters and Luke told me he liked blueberries I would’ve surprised him with something that involved blueberries and I have a lot of wishes for 2023 but my number one wish for 2023 is to surprise luke with blueberry stuff some how🫐🫐🫐
They do have a P.O. Box if you want to send him blueberry stuff
@@ashleecollinsworth5039 Oh really okay yeah I really want to but idk if my parents would want me to do that but I really want to😁😁😁

What’s Christopher’s vlog channel I’m trying to find it lol
@@markbarney9510 I do not think that Christopher has a separate channel. I believe he just has this family channel.
Jacob has his own channel and I believe that is called Jacob Ballinger.
Sobbing at Luke's pure wonder and amazement that THE Minnie and Mickey were actually there in front of him. That was actual Disney magic 😭😭💓💓
Same lol I was crying and yelling awww my heart!
I got sooo emotional when Luke met Minnie!! My heart can´t handle the cuteness
@@ellenglanz8299 he couldn't stop staring at her like he was seeing the most wonderful, amazing thing ever ❤️❤️❤️
I am so glad I wasn't the only one who had this reaction haha so pure and beautiful!
Absolutely precious ❤️
I didn’t know how happy seeing Luke live his best life at Disney would make me ❤
Luke's joy at seeing Minnie Mouse made my heart melt. 😁
I’m so happy that Minnie knows that Luke loves blueberries
Further into the video now.. I’m so happy that EVERY Disney character knows about Luke’s love of blueberries.
I fully understand Christopher’s mindset regarding not wearing the jacket so he can appreciate it more at night when it gets even colder 😂
😂😂😂
I love how reserved Duncan can be. He stands out amongst all of his siblings because of that and I think it’s so cool that he’s so much his own person.
Teddy too! I definitely think he’s taking after Duncan!
Luke’s personality really fits stitch. Seeing his joy with the characters was so precious 💖
Ahh! This vlog feels so nostalgic. I remember watching and re-watching your Disneyland vlogs years ago when it was just PB&J. It’s so fun to see how happy you all are to be back! ❤❤
Duncan melting in Mickys arms…. I can’t my heart is exploding ❤
Yay! The Ballinger’s at Disney! 🎉 I love how grateful you are being at Disneyland! Your children really appreciate everything they have and get to do! ❤ it’s so beautiful to see you all live life to the fullest! You all seem genuinely happy and thankful for each and every opportunity you have.
Teddy's a tough audience, which I understand but Luke must be a character's dream! 🥰
Philip just smiling in the background on the cars ride 😂 what a sweet guide
Seeing Luke and Duncan love the characters so much made my heart happy.
Thank you for posting your family's Walt Disney video. I really enjoyed watching it :)
i would honestly love having a job dressing up as the characters seeing all the kids get so excited to see them and hug them is seriously the cutest thing and i just hope all the people there appreciate it and love it 🥹❤️ it seems like the best job
Can we just give a big thumbs up to their tour guide for being the coolest guy ever and having no trouble comforting kids and being in family photos?! What a cool dude!
Is that who the guy in the tie was? I was so confused 😂 clearly I’ve never been to a Disney park haha
I wonder if that would be a good job
@@ginagarcia1430 you don’t usually have a tour guide when you go!! i’m assuming colleen requested one. less likely to get stopped by fans, faster lines, and there to give tips and ideas!
@@ginagarcia1430you have to book a tour to get one, they are quite pricey, but sounds cool!
I love how Colleen is giddier than the children.

4:35 ‘please can I have Mickey Mouse waffles?’ Luke is so polite and his speech is improving so much!
So cute! ❤
Chris - you're absolute legend ! Carrying all those little kids. Legend.
I love Luke’s reaction to every character that comes to them. It literally was the cutest thing ever ❤❤❤😊
Duncan just attaching himself to the characters at the character breakfast was so sweet! 🥺🥰

Christopher said the most dad thing - I’m going to wait until later to put my sweater on so I feel it more 😂🤦🏼♀️
Bailey and I are the same “IT SMELLS LIKE WATER!”
I'm 12 minutes in and how many times have I cried already because of how excited Luke is? So cute and sweet. What a magical day of memories for your family 💖
I love seeing pure pride and joy that Christopher has towards Luke. Such a wholesome Father/Son moment.
Omg Duncan's face when the ride told him to raise his hands for security clearance😂
I already know that Luke is having Blueberries for breakfast!!! What a wonderful way to enjoy the holiday season. Colleen is such a sweet sister, sister-in-law, and auntie along with Eric. What great memories you will have. Especially seeing that you vlogged it. Teddy will be able to see this someday when he is older!!!
Watching Luke at the character breakfast is honestly magical! I haven't even watched the whole video yet. It's so good!
I love Luke's reaction to everything. He is genuinely having such a a great time ☺️. His giggles are contagious!
That's the longest firework show I've ever seen🤗 so magical!!
Aw Luke and Duncan’s faces are a joy to watch☺️
Man Luke was handling those uneven surface like a champion.
13:18 That's a solid slap hahaha
The fact that also Jacob wants to be a part of the character hugs is just wonderful!
EDIT: I mean... everyone (but Teddy) wants character cuddles and it's freaking adorable.
Yes my daughter is 13 and I don’t know if she would pose with characters anymore!! Great that Jacob and Bailey did!

I still remember Duncan trying to meet Mickey Mouse in Disneyworld in 2020.
It’s so weird bc I still get ready for the beat drop in the intro song where it was when I first subscribed (it was before luke was born) then the song keeps going and I’m like ohhh wait there’s more kids now 😂
Awesome video!! Im way across the united states in Maine and you made it so I felt like I there and riding rides. Loved it!!!❤
Remember to never tell the Captain the odds when he's flying through a meteor shower.
Thank you for sharing this day with us.

The guide getting to go on rides with you too is so funny haha. That'd be such a fun job.
Love! But…Who is Phillip? I don’t see that answered in the comments.
Do they have that guide bc they are RUclips famous? Or is that something you can buy?
