We had a fabulous time at Disney World! While we were there, Geoff and I kept saying to each other "Now we know why people keep coming back!" There is SO much to do and see---there's absolutely no way to get it all done in one trip.
We started off our Disney adventures with a SUPER cold day. According to the weathermen (even the day before), the 1st day was supposed to be in the 50's. Boy, were they WRONG! The temps barely made it into the 40's, and with the windchill it felt like it was barely in the 30's. We were NOT prepared for that kind of cold. Thank goodness we had packed some long-sleeved shirts and a couple of blankets because we definitely put them to good use that day!
We quickly learned that Arden loved meeting the characters. It didn't matter if she knew who they were, she was jumping at the chance to have her picture made with them. Little did we know that this would be one of the highlights of the trip for her. She wasn't a fan of riding anything (or even watching shows) but she was ecstatic to meet the characters :)
Tucker was such a trooper! The first day was brutal for him; thankfully my mom offered to take him back to the house mid-afternoon. We had plans to stay until the park closed and we all knew that once the sun went down, the temps would fall quickly and he would be miserable. We are so thankful Nonna was willing to help out and keep our little man as happy as possible! The other days were definitely warmer and he hung in there the best that he could. He enjoyed watching shows and seeing the characters, but did not care too much for waiting in lines. We can't wait to take him back to Disney when he is older--we know he will love it!
We ended our trip with sunshine, warm weather, and some kid-free time. Thanks to our parents for taking the kiddos so we could enjoy Disney on our own. We really appreciate all you do for us and our kids!
Disney truly is a magical place and I can't wait to return when our kids are older and can experience so much more. Who am I kidding? I can't wait to return so I can experience it all again!
Enjoy the pictures!
Waiting to enter Magic Kingdom--can you tell it was COLD?!
Arden's 1st character meeting!
Waiting to ride Dumbo...she wasn't a fan of the ride but we made her do it anyway!
Quite possibly my favorite picture from the trip :)
Tucker loved "It's A Small World"
She didn't keep these glasses on for long. Apparently 3-D movies aren't her thing either!
someone's getting sleepy...
....and he's out! What a trouper :)
Even Auntie April had some fun with the characters!
On TriceraTop Spin....again, she wasn't a fan (it was just like Dumbo). This picture was taken when the ride was over so that's a smile of relief!
Our last day @ Magic Kingdom
Dancing with Goofy during the street party!
We love the princesses!
We LOVED the teacups! I was the only brave soul that would ride with them :)
Enjoying some kid-free time!
Stay tuned for pictures from Arden's Cinderella make-over!
