Day one is actually day two. The first day was spent traveling and was so awful that I decided it doesn't count as part of our trip. Tate was pretty much as bad as we suspected. He actually lost his voice from screaming so much and we have decided he will probably be an endurance runner cause anyone that can kick their legs continuously that long would have to be. So the actual day one was spent at the Magic Kingdom, of course, because they had to see Mickey immediately. I never went as a little kid so it was fun to see all the characters and ride the kid rides and see their reactions to all of it. Tate was still a little cranky from the day before but Ben decided Tate would have fun whether he wanted to or not. So Ben carried him everywhere and was probably kicked in the nuts at least twenty times so we're probably done having kids now. Overall it was a pretty good day except for the heat. It was soooooo hot and the humidity is killer. Here is a few highlights from the day.
Besides meeting Mickey and Minnie, Chip and Dale were the ones they were most excited to see that day.
The girls were totally amazed at being able to see Minnie and Mickey's actual houses. Everytime we went by Tia would yell Mickey house.
This picture totally cracks me up. I love the look of terror on Tates face. This is on the Snow White ride and all my kids decided it was the scariest ride in the park. Who would have thought?
This is Kennedy on the Snow White ride. She kept putting her hands over her eyes and then peeking through. After this ride, we went on the Peter Pan ride and she asked me if she had to hold onto the bar and I said no and she immediately covered her eyes and would not look the entire ride. On a different day we went back and she liked it but after Snow White I guess she wasn't going to take any chances.
Us in the Swiss Robinson Tree. We caught Tate for a second for the pic but he was running through that thing at warp speed. The Minnie mouse ears were actually for the girls but of course after awhile Kennedy didn't want to wear them so either I hold them or wear them. I wore them and I think I look pretty great as Minnie.
This is us trying to get a picture in front of the castle and this was the best we could do. Tate is screaming and Tia is running away. People were waiting to pass while we were trying to get this pic and finally I yelled at my dad,"Just take it" and this is the result.
Kennedy and Ben got as spinning pretty good. Tia kept trying to help but she was so dizzy that when she tried to grab the handle she kept missing. It was pretty funny.
Stay tuned for day two of the trip.
