Until Next Time Disney...

Today was our last day of vacation.  We were planning on going to Animal Kingdom, but decided to spend the day at Magic Kingdom again instead.  Animal Kingdom didn't have a ton of things for the boys to do, and we've all had so much fun at Magic Kingdom
and wanted to spend more time there.

After a long week it was safe to say we were all exhausted and wanted to take it easy.

We spent the day walking around and revisiting our favorite rides....Dumbo,

  
Peter Pan, Haunted Mansion (or "Spooky House" as the boys like to call it),

  

and Pirates of the Caribbean.

 

Then we took a break and the boys tried one of my favorite treats, cotton candy.  I had been smelling it in this one souvenir shop all week so I finally broke down and got some.  Owen wasn't quite sure what to think.  He liked the taste but wasn't a huge fan of the weird texture.

Joe wanted no part in it, but was just happy to be there.

 

 We finished the day off with an old classic, the People Mover.  Ryan had never been on it before (gasp!).  The boys thought it was fun looking down and seeing all the rides we had been on and it was a nice, relaxing end to our day.

 This was honestly such a great trip.  Exhausting? Yes.  But so worth it.  Going as a parent and watching your kids experience something so magical is incredible.  I love looking back at these pictures and seeing how genuinely happy they were, well, most of the time. ;)
These are memories they will have forever and hopefully we can continue to build on them in years to come.  Now that we have this first trip under our belt, I've learned a lot and know how I can do things differently to make things a little easier on everybody.  And hopefully next time no one gets sick the day we leave.  That would be a huge help too.

Until next time Disney....
