Disney...Soooooo Much Fun!

Our awesome friend Carolyn convinced us to meet her in Florida for a Disney vacation. She was going to run her first marathon and needed us there for moral support. We needed a family vacation to re-group after Daddy had been in Afghanastan for 8 months. So, our desired Disney Cruise turned into a Disney World trip as she paid for our stay there. We only paid to get there. An offer we couldn't refuse. A week to remember always.

This entry is about our last day.

Magic Kingdom

This was our last day in Disney World. It was quite cold but beautiful.
I was really glad that I listened to that quiet voice that told me to pack winter coats at the last second before we left Vegas.

"Hey guys come back here! Let's dance with Mr. Incredible!"

We didn't want to dance with Mr. Incredible because he was kinda scary looking. But then we saw Jessie and Woody.
We missed getting their autographs the first time we went to Magic Kingdom. So there was no way we were going to miss the opportunity to dance with them!

Carolyn and Lily gettin' their groove on with Jessie.

I thought the men dancing on stilts were quite impressive.

Lincoln normally loves to dance...I mean really boogie! Unfortunately he was REALLY tired and just couldn't get into it.

Woody

Chloe gettin her groove on!

Then we made our way over to Space Mountain. After riding that a few times we got to meet, as Lincoln calls him, "Butt Year"...........otherwise known as Buzz Light Year!

Linc couldn't take his eyes off him!
We thought about letting Zurg keep them for awhile.

Moving on to Thunder Mountain!!
Daddy riling them up!

Mommy soothing their fears.
Thank goodness for Fast Passes and the courtesy child switch passes. The girls were able to go on again and again!

Then onto the train to take us to Fantasy Land.

Carolyn!!!

Linc was mesmerized by the steam engine train. Until they blew the horn and scared the crap out of him!

It was rather impressive.

Face painting fun. (Chloe only kept hers on for about 30 minutes. She washed it off in a huff and would not tell me why).

Lily wanted to keep hers on for days.

Chloe became a magical rainbow.

Lily became the Water Fairy.

This was also the day we lost Chloe. I took the girls on the merry-go-round. Chloe insisted on running off to get a particular horse. I of course chose to stay with my younger child who wanted to do her own thing too. Well, when you exit that ride there are 3 exits. It took us about 20 minutes to find her amongst the crowds of people. Luckily this nice couple that didn't speak any English stood with her until Daddy found her. She was all tears. Needless to say she never "ran off" to do her own thing again.

Here we were waiting in line to see Rapunzel and Flynn Ryder. Chloe is holding Pascal.

The kids got to color while waiting to see Rapunzel and Flynn Ryder.

Dancing with Flynn Ryder! Lily got to hold his hand!

Linc got tired while we waited in line to meet them. He fell over and then decided to stay on the ground for awhile. It reminded me of the little boy in the Christmas Story....all bundled up and unable to get up on his own!

Autographs

These two actors were incredibly good at their roles. They never came out of character while talking to us. Definitely worth the wait!
