Disney Sneak Peak!


We were in Disney World last Tuesday-Sunday with the Gentry's and had the best time!  Our 10 little kiddos did so well and we were able to see and ride quite a bit!  It really was such a treat as a parent watching your children experience all Disney has to offer.  We had so much anticipation and excitement for this trip that I think we were all in mourning a little bit today!  It just went so fast.

Since I took about 750 pictures, I will only be able to share a few here!  I'm planning on making a Disney book as soon as I can get them all organized.

Eden's 1st airplane ride and Macy's 2nd!  They both did really well even though neither one of them slept at all.  Macy had coloring books, a Sleeping Beauty toy, and movies on Daddy's iPad.

We arrived to our hotel around 3:00 then dashed over to Magic Kingdom because we had dinner reservations with Pooh, Tigger, Eeyore, and PIGLET!  I was so excited for Macy to meet Piglet but we were worried about how well she was going to interact with the characters.  She typically has a fear of things like that (like the Chick-fil-A cow!)

One quick picture outside the restaurant

Eden is thinking "What in the world...?!?"
This first night Eden wasn't sure about the characters but she warmed up to them later in the week.


Sweetest picture...Macy showing Piglet her Piglet.  Piglet was the only character Macy went near; she wanted nothing to do with Tigger, Pooh and Eeyore.  She gave Piglet a quick hug then ran back to her Daddy.


Tuesday night back at the hotel.  We had been up since 5:00 at this point so everyone was fading quickly!

Wednesday morning ready to hit Magic Kingdom!

First we had a breakfast with Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Pluto and Goofy!
Macy and Scarlett headed to breakfast...

The big cousins

Eden wasn't scared of the characters this day.  She laughed at them and pulled on Pluto's whiskers...

Macy still wasn't so sure but took her autograph book over for Minnie to sign...

The one and only Mickey Mouse! :-)

We got a little wet this day but it didn't slow us down!

I think one of Macy's favorite things we did was the Electric Parade at Magic Kingdom Wednesday night.  She was smiling and waving at everything that went past her.  She LOVED it!


Eden did too!

But as we strolled them over to find a good spot for the fireworks show, they were OUT!
Sweet babies, it had been a long day!


Thursday morning was Universal Studios.  All the cousins loved the Disney Junior show...


The big kids...

We saw several 3D movies and Macy did great keeping her glasses on...

Thursday evening we had dinner with Prince Charming, Cinderella, Lady Tremaine, Anastasia and Drizella

Macy loved Cinderella, acknowledged Prince Charming (but didn't want a picture), tolerated the step sisters, but wanted NOTHING to do with the stepmother!  Josh had to take her out of the dining room!


They were so fun and 100% in character the whole time!  It was amazing how accurately they portrayed the characters.

Mallory even got to dance with Prince Charming!!

Friday morning was Animal Kingdom...

These two were inseparable the whole trip.  So sweet!

Nana, Papa and the grands!

This day we had a Safari breakfast with Mickey, Donald, Daisy, and Goofy.  We figured out a secret to get Macy to approach the characters: send Scarlett with her!  We finally got some cute pics!



The Lion King show

The Jungle Safari was amazing!  Saw so many animals up close and the kids loved this!

We headed back over to Magic Kingdom and rode some more rides Friday afternoon...


Saturday we spent the day at Epcot.
First thing, we headed to the aquarium to watch a show with Crush, the turtle from Nemo...

Eden trying to see the fish!

Imagination ride at Epcot...
Eden loved every ride we put her on!

Spent a few minutes at this amazing jumping water feature...

Had to have a picture with Nemo!

Walking the countries at Epcot...
Phonebooth...

One of the last things we did Saturday was wait in line to meet Snow White!  This was probably one of the sweetest moments with Macy.  I wish we had videotaped it!  Macy just talked her ear off....she told her about her sister having a birthday soon, that Scarlett is her friend, she had a boo boo on her foot, etc....!  So precious!


The camera guy told the girls to say "Dopey"! and Macy said "Sleeping Beauty!"  Sorry Snow White, but Aurora is her favorite right now!

They even got matching kisses!

We watched the laser and fireworks show at Epcot then called it a night.

We flew out of Orlando Sunday morning around noon and arrived in Tyler at 5:30.

Such a fun trip with so many special memories!!  Thank you Nana and Papa for taking us!
