Disney World Trip

We took a week long family vacation to Disney World in Florida for July 4th week with my parents. Caleb had been looking forward to it for a while, but I think Greg was secretly the most excited. Lol! We tried to plan out our week and which parks we wanted to visit before we went. It rained the first day we arrived, but then we were blessed with nice sunny weather. Mostly in the 70's and 80's with lots of humidity. But that didn't slow us down. We stayed at a beautiful resort with playgrounds and pools available to play in as well during our "downtime."
But most of the days were spent at one of the Disney parks. We were so excited to see all the Disney characters walking around the parks, and filled the kids autograph books by the weeks end. Lex wasn't so sure about Mickey and Minnie.
Probably because they were her first upclose characters on our first day. When we ate dinner with Pooh, Piglet, and Eeyore she was really friendly and involved.I was so glad for my parents help during our trip, but I think they had lots of fun too. Papa and Gigi had never been to Disney either.Greg and I took Caleb to one of the water parks one of the days there. He really enjoyed the wave pool and the big slides. Mom and Dad left a few days before we did, so we spent the last remaining days playing in the resorts pools, and made it to the Arabian Nights for dinner and a live performance.
We had a wonderful time and made precious memories. Can't wait to go back when Lexie is old enough to remember all the fun too!
