Pierce outside our cabin the first day. Yes, that is his pajama shirt with his bathing suit, he still had pj's on from the car ride.We just returned from 4 amazing days in Florida. I am not one to use the word magic or believe in magic but there really is not many other ways to describe going to Disney with your children other than ‘magical.’ Jason and I had the chance to go in college and it was amazing then after not going since a kid but to go with kids who have no idea what they are about to experience and to watch there awe and wonder was such an experience. I’ve never seen a place done so well in so many ways from the rides, the food, the parades and shows, the lodging, the people who bend over backwards to be nice and help you to the grandness of it all. I know a lot of people thought we were crazy to take three small children to Disney but we wouldn’t of traded the time there for the world. Yes, we were beyond exhausted when we returned and we also could not of done it without my parents but the exhaustion was well worth the joy of it all. I had good intentions of journaling while we were there so I wouldn’t have to bore all with it all my blog but time did not allow for barely a shower there much less time to journal so here it goes the highlights and little things that made it special that we won’t ever want to forget.
Day 1:
We awoke at 4 am to drive down. The boys were excited but mostly because they thought they were going to see pirates. Not quite sure where this came from other than daddy does some kind of pretend nighttime drama with them every night and they had talked about pirates at Disney one night. They also were disappointed to miss their valentines party at school this week since we were missing a week of school..yet after Disney never even remembered this. They did great in the car and Camden had a good car trip again too. Some of my favorite memories from the trip down were dancing in the bathroom with Holt as we waited for Pierce who decided it would be a good time to do his daily #2..which is never fast for him, at a gas station. Another favorite was listening to Pierce laugh from his belly while watching Peter Pan…he has this great innocent real laugh that he can’t contain..love it. Last highlight was Holt’s art project in the car..when we arrived I went to check in and left Jason with the kids in the car. When I came back he told me Holt had done some coloring..oh yes he had colored the ceiling of the car with brint blue crayon above his seat.
We arrived shortly after noon and headed to our cabin. We stayed at Fort Wilderness Cabins..LOVED them!! Highly recommend. After the boys got out all there pent up energy from the car and excitement over the bunk beds they got to sleep in we put Holt and Camden down and I headed to the pool with Pierce.
Once my parents arrived and everyone was up we went to eat at the T-Rex CafĂ©. This was the only time I saw Holt scared. These dinosaurs were the closest thing I’ve seen to real. Once he realized they weren’t they loved the place and enjoying digging for fossils after dinner. We then walked around Downtown Disney and spent a good hour in the lego store. We headed back to Fort Wilderness and daddy took the boys to the campfire and sing along and I met them afterwards to watch the fireworks from Magic Kingdom at the beach on Fort Wilderness. Then we called it a night.
