Trip to Disney World

So, it has been a few weeks since we have been back from Disney World. Yes, it has taken me this long to recover! First of all, let me advice those of you who are planning a trip to the most wonderful place on earth, don't go if you're pregnant. It was still fun but extremely tiring.


Elijah was enchanted the entire time. He did so good...well until Tyler got there. He had all the attention for 3 1/2 days and then he had to share. Tyler did okay. I think he was just tired before he got there and then we forced him to miss naps and stay out late and get up early. All of this aside, I would do it again in a heartbeat. There is just nothing like taking your own children to personally meet Mickey Mouse!


We started at the Magic Kingdom the first day. Elijah was thrilled. I wish he was that happy every morning when he got out of bed! His first ride was of coarse, Buzz Lightyear. And by the way, that is the real Buzz talking to you when you are waiting to get on the ride :) I can't tell you how many times we got to ride Buzz! It was great. I had the pleasure of riding with Elijah on the race cars. He is not that bad...all though I may have gotten a little wiplash. Just talking about our trip is making me want to go back right now! I could go on and write an extremely long blog about it all but I won't. I will say that Elijah's favorite rides were the Haunted Mansion and Thunder Mountain! I couldn't believe it...he's only 4! I was told he held his arms up on Thunder Mountain! That is one of my favorite rides also but I couldn't ride :(


Tyler arrived on Thursday with Nana and Papa. We went straight to Buzz Lightyear! Surprise!We were able to get a bite to eat and then straight to find a spot for the parade. The boys loved the parades. Tyler made sure to point out all the characters and Elijah picked up a stick and conducted the music...too cute.


Friday was Epcot...not that much fun for the boys but they still had a good time. Saturday was Animal Kingdom. We had breakfast with Donald and the boys were ill this day. It was an early breakfast. Elijah enjoyed the Dinoland ride and Tyler just went along with everyone else. We enjoyed some icecreams later and caught the Lion King show. It was great!


Sunday we tried to get all the last minute things in :P Time seemed to speed up the closer it got to the end of our trip. It was a great time though. I would definately recommend Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party! One of the best parts of our trip. Also, try Ohana! It was the best dinner we had...no characters, but still lots of fun for Elijah.


Oh yeah, we are going to try and go back next year! We are so excited and really want to go back now! Craig is the most excited of anyone!


Enjoy the pictures!
