What we've all been waiting for...Disney Pictures

It's taken me quite awhile to gather all the pictures and go through them. There were well over 1000 picture taken between Poppy, Grammy, Andrew, myself and Miss M.

Overall the trip was really great.  We flew our early Saturday morning. Everything went as well as it could have gone minus the missing Go-Go-Babyz that never arrived.  It is the attachment that goes on the car seat to turn the car seat into a stroller to lug the kids through the airport.

So here goes our trip in pictures.

Lunch boxes packed with snacks for survival on the airplane.

 New monkey headphones for iPad watching on the airplane.

The kids were excited about the Disney statues in the Orlando airport. We almost didn't need to go to Disney.

We own two of these go-go-babyz that attach to the stroller. One never made it off the plane.

While Andrew tried to track down the missing go-go-babyz the kids and I took over the airport.  Cater is in the chair rolling around like a maniac while the kids got their craft/projects out to work on. 

We eventually made it to the Magic Express line.  We waited for what felt like eternity to get on the bus to go to our resort. Disney has everything down to a science but I don't know that I wouldn't pay for a cab next time. It's possible the wait for the bus wasn't too long but rather the lead up to the bus (i.e. waiting for missing luggage) is what drove me nuts.  The Magic Express idea is to make your life easy.  You don't get your luggage. It's supposed to "magically" arrive in your room.  There was a breakdown somewhere (I am not pointing fingers yet) and Andrew and I made more than a half dozen phone calls to the resort to attempt to get our luggage. I think it finally arrived around 10:30pm.  We all survived but it was irritating. It was probably the worst thing that happened the entire trip which is pretty impressive.

Cater riding the Magic Express. She was more than wiling to sit on the bus since she wasn't strapped in and there were tv's to watch.

We got to the resort and walked around to get an idea of what it had to offer.  It was a little chilly in the shade but warm in the sun.  The kids enjoyed the hammocks and loved the sand.  I am currently trying to decide how much I would hate my life if I decided to get a sandbox at our house.

I had packed swim clothes in our carry ons for the kids and myself but not Andrew. Big mistake.  I had to get in the pool with the kids while Andrew sat on the sidelines and didn't freeze to death. He claimed when he put his hand in the pool it felt like bath water. It was far from bath water.

The kids were so impressive in the pool. They put on their life vests willingly and didn't complain about them. It took Big Will a minute to figure out that the life vest thrust him forward. After he figured out how to not drink the pool water he floated and bobbed all over the pool happily.
