Surprise Disn@y trip!

Two weeks ago we surprised the kids with a (short) trip to Disn@y. They had never been to Disn@y and we asking to go. We did not tell them until the night before the trip and they were very excited. We have video of this but it is still on the camera. Maybe I will post it later but Kyle was so thankful he cried, Danny was clueless but like the Mickey t-shirt and play phone that came with the play phone and Paige was excited she was going on a school day.

Here are some photos. Thanks to everyone who provided suggestions on where to go. Since I had not been there since I was young, it was overwhelming to plan it before I had help.

The trip was exhausting and the kids and Ed were sure we should be spending more time in the room and at the pool and less at the parks. Next time (when Danny is old enough to remember) we will add in a pool day and more downtime.

Kid Favorites (ages 6 & 8)- space mountain, thunder mountain, splash mountain, Buzz lightyear and Lilo & Stich.

The best thing we did- got to Magic Kingdom when it opened at 8. We rode more rides the first two hours than the rest of the day with short lines or no lines.
