Disney

Yes notice the Tinker Bell toy he is holding...ahh, my manly man.

Jack loved dumbo! He can now say elephant quite clearly!

Right after Ethan's birthday we took a vacation to Disney! Thanks mom and dad! It was an action packed week. First we took an airplane to Orlando. Each of my kids had a piece of roll luggage to bring on the plane. I have to say it was so cute to watch them proudly tote the luggage through the airport. It was a bit slow going, but well worth it! The kids did awesome on the flight and loved every minute of it!

While in Disney we visited all the parks and spent a day swimming at the condo. I do believe the kids will have many memories of this trip!

Highlights:

• Ethan rode all the rides and loved them! We were really shocked!




• Cam loved the fireworks. He had so many cute quotes. During the fireworks he said, " ohh, the red one was my favorite"




• Jack loved everything, but the fireworks.




• Meeting Mickey Mouse, both Cam and Jack waited all week to meet the mouse. They gave him kisses and were so excited. Ethan wouldn't go near him!




• Eating lunch in the castle ( my kids loved it), However, I was a little concerned when they gave each of them a plastic sword before lunch (umm whose brilliant idea was that?)




• Eating dinner during the hoopdie Doo (sp?). Fun dinner show that we all enjoyed.




• Swimming at the condo. All three children got into the pool and swam for hours.




• The monorail. A fav of all my children.




• Animal Kingdom..All 3 children loved.




• Eating at the Rain forest Cafe. Again a big hit, well until Jack fell asleep:)




• Watching my brother with my kids. He was awesome and a huge help.




• Having grandparents helping hands and sharing memories.

Low lights:

• Hot hot hot...Not cute with a pregnant lady




• Tantrums from tired kids.




• Long lines




• carrying around children in the heat (do you notice a theme?)




• Ethan being stubborn and whiny (mostly tired and hot)




• Cam not riding anything inside because it was dark (umm that's a lot of the rides)




• Jack screaming through fireworks




• Cam pooping on a bridge in Magic Kingdom (nice)

Overall, I think it's a trip we will have many memories from and we are grateful we were able to do it! Thanks again mom and dad. Having said that I think we'll take a few years of beaches before we do that again!
