We are back from our trip! We had such a wonderful time! Time went by so fast its hard to believe that we were gone for a whole week! It was a great time of year to go, the lines were short and then weather was beautiful in the mid 80s and low humidity the whole week. On the first day we were there, we went to the Magic Kingdom. That is by far the kids favorite park. Shane got to ride Space Mountain, Splash Mountain and Big Thunder Mountain, which are the biggest rides at the park and he absolutly loved them. He was so excited to ride a roller coaster! While Jim took Shane to the bigger rides, Debbie and I took Kayla to the smaller kiddie rides like Winnie the Pooh and Snow White. That evening we went back to the hotel and swam for a little bit. Felt wonderful to be able to get into a pool again!!

Here is Jim with Kayla in front of the castle. It was perfect timing, since the fireworks had just gone off! May - Disney trip 017

The following day we spend at Typhoon Lagoon, which is a Disney Water Park. That was SO much fun! We had never been to one of their water parks before. It was a great time.
Here are Shane and grandma playing at the water park!

The next 3 days we spent each day at the other 3 Disney Parks. We had a great time at them as well, although they didn't have as many rides for the kids. The day before we left, we went back to the Magic Kindgom so the kids could ride some more of the rides again and then we went to a "Pirate Dinner Show" in the evening. What fun that was. Shane got to participate on the show and he had an absolute blast. It was wonderful to see him so happy!!

Here is Shane with Chef Mickey the night we ate at Chef Mickeys!
