Disney 2013

We did it!!  We took the kids to Disney World.  We also had the pleasure of both grandparents joining us.  I don't want to bore you with details so I will let the pictures do the talking.  To sum up the trip, we had a blast and would do it again.  Jack and Fernie slept very good while we were there and I think they are still catching up!  The help of grandparents was very appreciated.  Jack and Fernie did VERY well. Jack loved the rides and Fernie did great in her stroller.  Probably the hardest part with Fernie was the flight there and back...she did NOT want to stay in her seat.  We saw a whole new side of Jack.  I was worried he would be scared of the characters...WRONG and I was worried he wouldn't like the rides...WRONG again. He rode age appropriate roller coasters!!  Fernie did her best to keep up but...
 
 
Jack was smiles from Day 1!
 We had a wonderful view of the animals from our room.
 Jack has become quite the swimmer.  He LOVED the water slides!
 Each morning we would wait for the bus to take us to a new location.
 Our FIRST character lunch...a success!
 
Daisy kissed Jack...he was starstruck! 
 
 Even the little one had a good view.
 Jack was very much into the parades...he waved at everyone as they passed by.
 A Disney MUST!
 Jack was so happy!
 A happy family!
 
 HAD to take a picture here!!
 This was Jack's first splash park.  He has always been so leery of them...not at Disney!
 We waited 30 minutes to see Pluto...
 and Mickey...
And Minnie...
Fernie loved the food...
 Jack couldn't get enough of the pool and water slides.
 
 Even Fernie enjoyed some rides.
 I let Jack drive...it will be a looong time before he will get a license!
 The smiles say it all!
 
 I asked Jack what he thought of Pooh...he sheepishly said, "I felt his tummy, it felt like honey". 
 
 Pure joy!
 Fernie has discovered the slide and LOVES it!  She does her best to keep up with Jack. 
 Look at that smile!
 My favorite part of the trip was the safari ride in animal kingdom.  We were so close to the animals!
 
 
 We had an amazing time and will do it again.  I'm guessing our next trip will entail a princess or two!

While on the trip Zack's sweet grandfather passed away.  He lived a beautiful life and I am honored to have known him for a few years.  We just returned from a weekend in NJ where we celebrated Wilbur's life.

LOVE LOVE the family/sibling pics at Epcot AND Fernie's shot coming off the slide! I'm so glad you had a fantastic, overall easy trip. Glad you had a blast AND made it back in one piece! Bet you're ready to just stay in ND for a bit! Love you!
