Thanksgiving in Disney!


Well as we all know, I am not the best at keeping up my blog. Too busy raising my two....I mean three (husband included) boys! So, here is some info and pictures from our great trip to Disney World this Thanksgiving.

We were fortunate that Mom and Chuck offered us the opportunity to go to Disney for the Thanksgiving holiday. In addition, I had been furloughed the beginning of that week so it offered Lucas and I some additional time to go spend with Nana and Papa in sunny warm southern Florida! Luke and I flew out on the Saturday before Thanksgiving and had a blast doing our favorite Florida activities; shopping, boating, breakfast on the water (Lobster Benedict), and dinner on Las Olas. Magnificent!!! We packed on Wednesday and drove north to Orlando where we met up with Daddy, Trenton, and Aunt La La.

Disney was action packed! We had a great time at the resort Thanksgiving day playing in the pools and lazy rivers. We were able to enjoy a traditional feast with turkey, candied yams, cauliflower salad, and cranberries. Yummy...... The following four days were filled with trips to Epcot, Animal Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, and Magic Kingdom. We also enjoyed the Very Merry Mickey Mouse Christmas Party where the kids were able to take in the snow (fake of course) and parade festivities with all the great Disney characters! What a special and very memorable experience. If you ask Lucas I imagine he would tell you that his favorites were meeting his hero, Mickey Mouse, in person and then there was Buzz Lightyear...... Trenton would tell you that one of his favorites was the Tower of Terror and Expedition Everest. He would also probably tell you that I screamed like a little girl on those rides....and maybe, just maybe I did.

Enjoy the pictures! I hope to continue to play catch up and post some Christmas pictures too!
