Magic Kingdom {2015}

While we were in Florida, we spent one day at Magic Kingdom. We weren't sure what we were in for with the kids but we hoped for the best!

The kids were super excited to ride the tram to the park from the parking lot. Such boys!

Evelyn was a champ and did great in the baby carrier with daddy all morning.

The castle! the boys were in awe!

Bentley in front of Ariel's Grotto

While waiting in line to meet Ariel, Evie decided to poop. In the baby Bjorn, which I was wearing. Her, the BB, and I were quickly covered in baby poop. Such good timing, princess! ;)

We got out of line to clean up, so we missed the boys meeting Ariel, but Andrea got some great pictures. They were pretty excited, and now they love "merbaids", as Harry says!

We also rode a buzz lightyear ride, which I got no pictures of. After that it was time for some lunch. Harrison was fading fast, so we actually got him to nap in the stroller wile we were walking around. We found a shady spot on Main Street USA for the Fantasy Parade. He slept and woke up to relax and do some cuddling with his tired sis.

Such a cool parade! So glad we decided to take a break and watch it!

Beauty & The Beast

Cinderella and Prince Charming

Anna and Elsa

Peter Pan and Wendy

Tinkerbell

Snow White

Fire Breathing Dragon - the boys were in awe!

After the parade, the younger ones woke up crabby. So Brandon and Jake headed home with Willa, Harry and Evie and Andrea stayed with the two oldest to do some more things and get the most out of our expensive admissions! :)

We headed to grab dinner, a little early to beat the crowds...and we werent sure how long the kids would make it. They enjoyed a slushy together. Such lovebirds! ;)

We waited in line to ride "its a small world" which was a big hit for us all!

The line to meet Cinderella and Rapunzel was super short when we went bye so we quick stopped in there. Bentley was just smitten with Cinderella. He thinks he is a prince and that wesleigh (or sometimes his sister) is his real princess, and the first thing Cinderella did was call him a prince. He for real thinks he is a prince now! :)

He even got a smooch from her before we left!

He showed Rapunzel how big his muscles were from climbing towers like Flynn Rider. Of course, she was more than impressed.

So fun to see so much magic come to life for this little dude. He was all smiles!

For our final ride the kids picked Aladdin's Magic Carpet ride.

Before heading home we stopped at the Emporium on Main Street USA and picked out some toys. Bentley picked out something for his brother and sister too, since they weren't there.

Evie got her first Disney Princess' and a bracelet of sparkly mickey mouse ears. Her first jewels, from big brother! :)

He and Harry got swords and shields so they could be REAL princes to Wes and Willa. They haven't put them down since!

Such a fun day, making memories with our family and friends! Tho it will be a while, we can't wait to go back!

Florida 2015 {pt two}

Most nights we grilled out at our house but one night we did take the kids out for dinner. Evelyn even put a dress on for the occassion! ;)

We had a great time at dinner, the kids did great! and Bentley ate all his food, so he got ice cream!

The girls had an awesome princess room across from the boys mickey room! It was magical!

Wednesday we hit the Florida Aquarium in Tampa...it was too cold to swim. The kids had a great time and we saw some awesome sea creatures!

Evie even liked hanging out in the stroller and looking around!

we spent some time on the outdoor play land before we headed back home!

no naps made for a lazy night with some popcorn and a movie.

Thursday we woke up and Gama & Gapa came over from the Villages. The boys were soooo excited to see them again, and Evie wasn't shorted any attention either!

Gapa went to meet the guys at the auction so Gama took us to Rainforest Cafe for lunch at Downtown Disney.

Then we hit the lego store, as a treat for eating our lunches really good. The boys had fun seeing buzz and woody and showing off their muscles with hulk.

While the big kids napped, Evie hogged the attention. :) Not sure who loved it more; her or G&G.

Friday was our last day, and was cold...again. Its pretty annoying to be somewhere that is supposed to be warm and then freeze the entire time. I would rather be home, snowed in. :p

Evie was a big helper and full of smiles while we packed and cleaned to get ready to leave.

It was a whopping 55 degrees but the kids took one last dip in the hot tub after naptime. It was wayyy warmer than the air and they had fun!

Saturday morning we got up and headed out by 530 for another big day of driving home. The kids did great, again, even Evie this time. No blowouts that required throwing clothes away, not many tears and lots of sleep // i think we can make a traveler out of her yet! ;)

We got home about 1 am to a few staple groceries and a warm house, thank you to our sweet friend Sarah and the best sister, brother and nephews ever. So nice to wake up and not have to rush to the store for breakfast food and milk!

We are happy to be home, back on our own spaces and beds...there just is no place like home.

Now let the unpacking and laundry begin. Or what I like to call, the vacation hangover!
