Disney - Part 1

I decided to split my Disney pictures in half - it would have been one really long post! We were in Disney World for 5 days - 2 of those days involved travel so really 3 full days. Since we got up for the airport at 3 am we had a lot of early evenings, we were all exhausted! We had a great time and visited 2 parks this time - Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios. We had a few new breakfasts with the kids and met a few new characters. Here are all the kids with the people who made this trip possible, grandma and grandpa!


We ate breakfast at Chef Mickeys, everyone loved it. Jackson really loved all the characters this year, he couldn't stop looking at them!

This was the first day it wasn't really crowded. We had to get the kids at the entrance to the park.

The kids loved this people mover ride. It took you above and through a lot of the rides at Magic Kingdom. The adults liked it because you got to just sit for a while, very relaxing.


Outside of everyone's favorite ride - the Buzz Lightyear ride!

The car racing was new for me this year. Elizabeth was my partner and she had a great time driving me around.

My mom and Cooper, Jessica and Jackson. I can see my mom reaching around trying to help Cooper steer! :)

My dad rode with Ben. I guess none of the boys wanted any help steering so it was a little slow going banging back and forth along the track.


My kids in front of the castle.

All our kiddos.

We saw some familiar faces,

and then we were off to Magic Kingdom at night!

We watched the parade,

and took pictures by Mickey and Minnie.


Here's the castle at night. We were waiting for the fireworks to begin.

Last year we didn't see that there was a Fairy Grotto where Tinkerbell hung out. We had to go get a picture with her.

Ben got soaked by the camel on the Aladdin ride. He thought it was hysterical!

Grandpa and Cooper on the Aladdin ride.


Now we are at Hollywood studios. We're waiting in line for our favorite ride there, Toy Story Mania! This was our second time at Hollywood. The first time was so incredibly busy, the line was 120 min for the ride, and the fast passes were all gone. We had to skip the ride and hope we could do it again our second day. Luckily, we could, twice!

This was a fun line to wait in, there was so much to see!

It was a 3D ride so we all wore these crazy glasses.


Even Jackson kept them on!

(notice Ben and Cooper are holding hands? Those 2 are inseperable!)

Phew - it was a busy, fun trip! I'll post the rest of the pictures next!
