Disneyworld!!
















We had such a blast in Orlando. We flew in on the 8th around 5 pm. Got our rental car and drove to the resort we were staying at for the following two days. It was sooooo large and super nice. We got all settled into our room and quickly hit the pool. It was so nice. the sun was setting and the pool felt great after such a long flight. After we were done there we drove over to Walmart and got a ton of groceries to use for the next week and a half. The next morning we all slept in then headed straight to the Magic Kingdom. It was so perfect! Hardly anyone was there so the waits were basically non existent. We played there all day then headed back to swim. We told the kids there would be a surprise guest coming. They had no idea who it was. We drove over to the airport, pulled up to passenger pick up and we had Kingston scope out the place. As soon as he saw the guest he shouted, "Grandma!". The guest was my mom. We took her to the resort and we all got a good rest. The next day we sent allof our luggage and food to the resort we would be staying at the rest of the trip which was the Disney Beach and Yacht club. While waiting to check in (which was forever), we headed over to Chilis for lunch, dropped off the rental car at the airport, then took the Disney Magical Express back to the resort. We checked in and headed straight up to our villa. I loved it! Disney resorts are so awesome. They are decorated very classically and vintage. My mom got to occupy the suite and the kids, Chez, and I in the regular room which was perfect for us. Once we got the food put away in the kitchen and our clothes in drawers, we spent the rest of the afternoon at the pool which was soooooo awesome! The pool area is ginormous. There are a gazillion (like my words?) different pools but they all connected. There was a whirlpool, deep pool, large kiddy area, and an area where the slide dropped you off. The kiddy area is where we spent the majority of our time. The floor of the pool is all sand and they give the kids fun sand toys to play with. Kingston and Chez loved the slide. They went down it over and over. It came off of a pirate ship and was pretty long. After swimming we went over to the beach where they roast marshmallows for the kids every night then watch a movie on the beach. That night was the movie Tangled. Kingston had an absolute blast. He met a lot of friends and they played in the sand and watched the movie. The next few days we did Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Animal Kingdom, Hollywood studios, and two different Disney water parks. We seriously had the best time ever. We also met up with our friends a few times at different parks with their kids which was really fun. The highlight of the trip for me was lunch with the characters in the magic kingdom. The kids dressed up so cute and got to meet Pooh, Tigger, Eyore, and Piglet. BEst time ever. I am sooooo glad we bought season passes for Disneyworld. We are already planning for another trip there soon and plus these tickets also work for Disneyland. We did break the piggy bank but you really cant trade money for making magical memories with your family. I heart Disney!!I also heart my husband who has such a passion for vacationing with his family. I feel truly blessed that we are able to plan, save, and make time for these important family times.
