Disney

Ok...so I've been MIA for over a month now! I've been so unbelievably busy yet I can't seem to figure out exactly what I've accomplished. I think the 3rd trimester of pregnancy is catching up and the lack of sleep due to construction is not helping with my level of fatigue!! I plan to post several updates to try and catch up, so hold on for the ride!

We took Rylee to her first Disney trip on October 30th. My sister and her family were at Disney for the week and we made a day trip to see Mickey! I have never been much of a Disney buff... I don't get into the over commercialized stuff that is out there, but let me just say that Rylee is in LOVE with Mickey and has been for a while now. She was sooo excited to get to go and her excitement was very infectious. Damon and I were tickled pink to get to take her and see her experience Disney for the 1st time. It truly was magical watching her! My brother-in-law treated us to lunch with Pooh and Friends, which scared her to no end, but it was fun anyway...and the food was fabulous! She was absolutely mesmerized by the princesses, but totally petrified of the other characters. We decided not to wait in the VERY long line to let her see Mickey up close for fear of the the trauma it might cause, but she LOVED watching Mickey perform at Cinderella's Castle and in the parade. We left the park at just before dark and rode the monorail back to my sister's hotel. They had a pool where the kids could cool off and play. It overlooked a 'lagoon' and you could see fireworks over Cinderella's Castle to end the evening. As always, the day with my sister and her family went way too fast, but we had an amazing time. The pictures don't do justice to the fun we had, but I thought I'd share some anyway. I must say that we will definitely be going back!!
