Thursday - Magic Kingdom

I took about 4 pictures on Thursday - I think we were past tired at this point!  We had a full day and rode a TON of rides.  Some of our favorites were Pirates of the Caribbean, Tea Cups, Little Mermaid for Shelby, 7 Dwarfs Mine Ride, Big Thunder Mountain, Splash Mountain, Flying Elephants, and Tom Sawyer Island.  We headed to Downtown Disney that night to eat and hit up the Lego Store! 
 
Friday we were suppose to go to Sea World, but we were ALL exhausted and did a pool day/relaxing day!



 


Wednesday - Hollywood Studios

Wednesday was my favorite day.  I think that Hollywood Studios is my favorite by far!  We did lots of fun things!  David took the boys first thing and got them signed up for Jedi Training while the rest of us stood in line for Toy Story Mania since we couldn't get a Fast Pass for it (the boys rode it later by the way and it was lots of fun!).  We played in Honey I Shrunk the Kids a while (the kids have been enjoying the movie at home), watched many shows (Indiana Jones, Disney Jr Live, Muppets 3D), the boys did Jedi Training and fought Darth Vador at the end which was super cool, Star Tours (which may have been my fav even though I am not a Star Wars fan) we rode twice, and lots of other fun rides!  We ate there that night and stayed and watched them turn the Christmas lights on which are also set to music! Shelby and Matthew were exhausted by the night, but after dinner David took Jackson back to Magic Kingdom and rode some big kid rides!







 
 







Tuesday - Magic Kingdom/Epcot

Tuesday we started in Magic Kingdom and pretty much stayed in Tomorrowland and Adventureland.  We loved all the rides we did, especially the race cars, Toy Story, Monsters Inc Show (which my dad made the big screen on) and lots of the other rides!  It's kind of an overwhelming place!  We headed to Epcot after bc we had dining in Epcot (which was delicious in Mexico).  There we walked though the countries fast (although the adults said we could spend the whole day there) meeting Belle in France and grabbing a beer in Germany.  Then after eating- Shelby was not feeling well, so I took her back to the hotel while the rest stayed for more rides (test track) and fireworks!   













Monday - Animal Kingdom

Monday we spent the whole day at Animal Kingdom!  It was fun, the weather was overcast, and we even got a quick shower of rain.  I think our favorites from this day were the Safari, It's tough to be a Bug, the Boneyard, Flying Dino ride (Shelby's fav), small roller coaster that reminded me of the game Mouse Trap, Dinosaur (my favorite), Everest (David's fav), and the water ride (the boys fav and they got soaked). It was a good day and we even ran into friends who where there on their last day and said Hello!












Art of Animation

We stayed on site at the new Art of Animation resort!  It was fabulous!  There were 3 pools (this was a smaller pool outside of our room) and there were 4 sections (The Little Mermaid, The Lion King, Finding Nemo, and Cars) and we stayed in The Little Mermaid.  I would stay here again in a heart beat!
