My three favorite people…
and my whole entire world…
even when they’re like this! 🙂 ha!
I love them.
Walk
Sunday morning stroll to Starbucks…
as good as it gets!
Veterans Day
On Veteran’s Day last week the kids were out of school and we made the most of it! The boys went to a Top Golf camp that morning while Samantha got to take a friend to Let’s Play. So fun! After lunch, we all headed downtown to watch the Veteran’s Day Parade. Apparently Birmingham has the largest Veteran’s Day Parade in the country! It was a beautiful day and we were able to get a parking spot, find some friends, and had a prime time place from which to watch the parade.
A great day all around!
Final Disney day
We finished our trip with a half day in Animal Kingdom sans guide. Ready for a fun day…
After Samantha didn’t get on to Space Mountain the day before, I wasn’t messing around and put 3 sugar packets underneath the gel inserts in her tall shoes! I was going to get her onto Everest and Flight of Passage!! It worked!!! Look at this happy roller coaster rider!
The boys loved it too!
They checked Samantha’s height 3 times before letting her on Flight of Passage but she passed each time and got to ride it. It was so cool and I’m so glad she got to do it! We also did the Safari, the Rapids, and wasted money on the games in DinoLand. A good day all around!
We then headed to the airport to fly home after the most awesome Disney experience ever! I may never be able to go back to having to wait in lines again!!! A huge thanks to GJ and Daddo for making it all happen!!
Disney day 3
The next morning we had plans to head to the Magic Kingdom with our VIP guide bright and early – but a tropical storm changed our plans! It was pouring down rain that morning so we delayed the guide until 2:00 and went over to the Contemporary to get a caricature drawn of the kids.
He did ok…and spelled Samantha’s name wrong but, oh well! By the time 2:00 came, the sun was out! Hooray!
Again, it was cool to get to go into the parks through the back entrance!
We had a fun filled day doing all the rides we wanted to ride! We did go back to Space Mountain and, for some reason, Samantha’s shoes and inserts didn’t make her quite tall enough for the ride. Major bummer but we didn’t let it spoil our day!
Such a perfect day in the happiest place on earth!!!
