Fun with the space ranger

What a spud

We use whatever works when waiting at the bus stop

The week is taking its toll

Well...I'll be...these things aren't so bad...

No words to describe how great this was

One last ride with Pooh

What beats Donald Duck in 3D?

A last look at Spaceship Earth

We all felt this way...why did we have to leave?!

The week wasn’t long enough…finally had to come to an end.  Day 5 started off at Downtown Disney and ended at Epcot…with a trip to the Magic Kingdom in there for good measure.

It was a day that included shopping, Planet Hollywood, lots of bus riding, a monorail journey, and a forgotten key to the world (nobody that knows me well is surprised by this).  I’m not sure how many miles we covered that day…

We were so blessed to be able to have this time with the boys.  I know they will only remember this through pictures, but Erika and I will always cherish the special moments we shared with them…  Hope you enjoyed the pics…

Sawyer's smiles got worse as the week progressed

He'll get it in there one day

Fish are friends...not food...

A badly needed recharge

Preparing for a long night

Christmas at the castle

Perfect ear choice by Saw-man

Sullivan was less than enthused about the ears

Small World was Sully's favorite...it grew on me...

Perfect night to kick off Christmas

Day 4 was our favorite!  We woke to freezing temperatures (mid-50s are brutal in Florida), but it didn’t slow us down.  The morning started in Epcot, and we followed that up with a much needed nap. 

All this in anticipation of an amazing Christmas party at the Magic Kingdom…  The magic included snow falling on Main Street and hot chocolate at every corner.  The boys loved the opportunity to ride their favorite rides without any lines, and we have many special memories of their excitement.  Sawyer and Mommy were the last two on the Winnie the Pooh ride (his favorite) as the clock struck midnight…such an awesome experience…

A day in Hollywood...here's our star...

Sully finds another slide

That's a pretty big bug

Mommy loves those kisses

Who needs a parade when you have a parachute

At one time those were goldfish

About to see Buzz and Woody

The emporer Zerg eyes a new recruit

Such a ham

Handy Manny for the win

Day 3 was spent at Hollywood Studios.  The adults enjoyed the rollercoasters, and the kids enjoyed everything else.  We were able to see an excellent Pixar parade, and we finally got to meet Handy Manny!  Terrific Day!

Another day, another park

Abby and Debbie take flight

Ready for a safari

Sully running away

This rock was waiting to be conquered

Lesson learned: Do not headbutt a dinosaur

Strolling is a tough job

Look closely for Saw-man

Cooling off after the Florida heat

All of these are from the second day of our adventure.  Animal Kingdom was alot of fun, and the boys enjoyed the afternoon in the pool.  Sawyer was pumped to find a pool “just my size, Daddy!”

Happiest place on Earth

Just got back from a terrific trip to Walt Disney World!!  What is there to say?!  I wish we were still there…  The next best thing, though, is to put up pictures of our trip for our permanent enjoyment.  I literally took hundreds of pics, and I’ll try to post as many as possible as I find the time.  Enjoy!!
