DISNEY WORLD!

In May, we had a great time at disney world. It all started out with a free week to any resort we wanted to go to, so we choose FL so we could have the chance to see Rob's parents again and let them see the kids. It was a nice visit with them. The girls were overwhelmed with excitement as they got to see many of the charactors they love so much. It was a long trip down there. 3 days to travel, over 24 hours total for us. We decided to break the trip up so we wouldn't be so tired once we got there. We stopped at two different Air Force bases and stayed on the base hotel. A lot cheaper to do that!

So once we made it to Mickey Mouses House (that would be Orlando), the girls wanted to know where Mickey was. They were so excited and wanted to see Mickey. I won't be going into minute by minute details, but I've posted a few pictures that will add to some of the cute stories.

Here's the girls first time to see Mickey mouse. Madison was so excited that she let go of our hand and just run right under the rail to keep us in line. It took all we had to pull her excitement back to us and then she couldn't stand still. Her little feet just pitter pattered in place until she was able to get to him. It's something that just touches a parents heart. Emma was always a little hesitant to greet each character, but eventually slowly made her way to them.

I thought it was so nice that the disneys photograhers took pictures with our camera for us.

They were both excited to see Pluto. He was ready with arms wide open to take them in and give them a great big hug. Wasn't it nice that Madison didn't run off and leave Emma this time?

Here we are at Magic Kingdom. This was such a fun day. The girls loved all the shows that we saw, especially the one where some of the characters come out with the princess' to perform a show. Their eyes never came off the stage. We ended up watching the show twice. The second time around, they remembered what was going to happen next. During the scary part, Emma and Madison was hiding under Rob's legs. They didn't like the scary looking lady that they called "Kingdom" because she would say, "...and this kingdom shall be mine!" But they loved the show.

Here they are watching the show.

This is the first time watching the show and the "Kingdom Lady" came out and fireworks went off. Priceless picture!

This is pretty much how Emma watched the rest of the show. ha ha

Our picture after going through Mickey's house. That was fun. We didn't know Minnie was going to be there as well, so it was a nice surprise.

Gotta love Pooh!

And Kaylee loved him as well!

This was Emma and Madison's first ride. They had to ride it with their daddy since they were under 42" and had a lot of fun. Wanted to ride it again! I didn't post pictures of their first roller coaster ride. That one, they road 2 times each. It was great!

And we got to experience Sea World. Bush Gardens gave free tickets to military and family for one day. I've always wanted to go and I'm glad we were able to. We were all amazed at the animals and all loved it very much.
