Disney Countdown

Only a few days left before our trip to Florida and we are so excited! AJ and I did a fun project in anticipation of our vacation.

He gets to take one link off the chain each day and see it get shorter and shorter until the day we leave for the airport. It's been a good visual reminder to me to get organized too.

Ever since our last trip to Disney World, I have been dreaming of the day we go back. This time with two children. I think my favorite Disney memory was AJ hugging Mickey Mouse. He was almost 3 years old here (and JJ 28 weeks in utero).
Do you have any favorite Disney memories you want to share? Leave me a comment and let me know. I can't wait to make more memories with my boys!

You guys are going to have a blast! Tower of Terror would be my favorite memory. The drive to get there and back, my least fav memory. :)

I believe i went at the same time as you did many, many years ago!!! Really...no good memories from that trip for me. I was motion sick all the way there and back! And the weather!!! UGH!!!! I'm sure you'll have a wonderful time though! I can't wait until we are able to take Carter!

When Michael was 3 we went to Disney because I had a conference there. He rode a roller coaster 5 times in a row until we finally said ENOUGH!
It rained almost all day every day. That part was not so fun. :)
Don't forget Flat Baloney!

Kas insisted on riding It's A Small World ride everytime we walked by, we started walking around it sometimes. We all loved the Buzz Lightyear ride because we were so competitive. Everyone loved the character meals. I think the princess breakfast at the castle and Christmas breakfast with Mickey were highlights. Just hated the airplane portion of the trip, Kas has extreme motion sickness. yuck!

Just being there with all the people I love so much was my favorite thing! Hanging and watching the kids have so much fun.

I think my favorite ride would have to be Rockin Roller Coaster....I think I almost wet myself from laughing so hard! Have fun you are going to make memories for sure! YOU BETTER RIDE THIS...you said you would!


My favorite thing K ever said was when we were watching the fireworks over the castle and Tinkerbell goes flying by...( Understand he could not stand FIREWORKS!) "Mom my worst nightmare is coming true!" Who says that at Disney....it was so funny!
