We left for Disney World on Friday, August 7 with all three boys and Nana! It is an eight hour drive from Atlanta - and so worth it! We stayed, once again, at Disney's Wilderness Resort. We love staying here because it reminds us of Montana AND it is only a 10 minute boat ride to the Magic Kingdom!
We conquered FOUR parks in FIVE days! Magic Kingdom (twice!!), Animal Kingdom, Epcot and Disney's Hollywood Studios. It was Tyler's first trip to Disney and his brother's were anxious to show him around and introduce him to Mickey, Minnie, Donald and many more. The first characters that Tyler got to meet were Buzz Lightyear and Woody (from Toy Story) at Hollywood Studios. Tyler ran and gave Woody a huge hug, smiled and posed for pictures...and then Buzz ruined it. Buzz tried to give Tyler a high five - Tyler looked at him and went screaming towards the door. That was it. No more character greetings for Tyler - he wanted NOTHING to do with any of them. Even his beloved Mickey. Oh, well, maybe next year!
We also discovered this trip that Bryan is the BRAVEST lil' 3 year old boy we know! He went on Splash Mountain - twice! It is a ride that plummets over a mountain peak on a 5-story - 50 feet - fall that ends in a massive splashdown! He LOVED it! Drew, on the other hand ,was scared out of his mind and begged Mommy not to go on it. I truly believe he thought I wouldn't come back alive.
Drew was so sad to leave - he cried and told me that "Mickey's House" is his favorite place to visit with his family. I couldn't agree more. Life doesn't get any better than watching magical parades, amazing fireworks over Cinderella's castle and the expressions on Drew, Bryan and Tyler's faces! We love going to Disney World with our kids. It was extra special to have Nana (Alene) with us at Disney - what memories!
