We made our way to Disney World for some fun in the nice warm Florida weather. Ha! There was plenty of sun but it was c-o-l-d there!! Luckily we had our jackets with us because I only shed mine for a few hours during our entire trip.
After checking the kids out from school they eagerly awaited our departure at the airport. They were fascinated by the construction crew which helped pass the time.
Lin-Ley began right away on her Vacation Journal.
Tru was all ready with his Mickey Mouse bag which contained two toy trucks.
Although it was cold outside we changed Tru into shorts to help with the additional security measures he must endure with his prosthetic leg. The TSA folks are always kind and he takes it like a champ as long as Mommy is there with him.
Finally in the air and watching a Mickey Mouse movie on Mom's ipod.
Once we arrived at Disney it was dark and we were tired. We ate and retired to our room. The person who would be servicing our room greeted us with some towel art.
After much discussion we were unsure if Jacob, our Christmas elf, would follow us to Disney World or take a vacation in the North Pole. The first morning we woke up in Disney the kids discovered Jacob hanging on the light above their bed.
We started our first morning with breakfast with Mickey Mouse and friends.
Chef Mickey.
Chef Goofy.
Chef Donald.
Chef Minnie.
Chef Pluto.
Then, as we entered the Magic Kingdom, Snow White was there to greet us.
We always have to stop for a shot with Cinderella's castle.
More Princesses.
Sleeping Beauty.
Cinderella.
Belle.
And one of our most anticipated character encounters...
Princess Tiana and Prince Naveen!
During Lin-Ley's first trip to Disney four years ago, she practically waved her little arm off waving at all of the characters in the parades. Some things (luckily) have not changed.
And it pays off too because the characters make eye contact with her and wave back often speaking directly to her.
After a long, cold day at Magic Kingdom Tru finally gave in to a nap in his trusty stroller. As Dallas, Lin-Ley and I snacked on popcorn Tru snoozed away. Guess who shared his popcorn with Tru??
(Bad Daddy!)
