Disney

7 Adults, 5 kids....2 of which are infants, 3 strollers....Disney World for a week.  Are we crazy?  Possibly.  But we did it anyway and had a wonderful time.  The only ironic thing was that it wasn't until we were leaving the airport...in the car....on our way home....after our vacation...the older boys were watching a movie, Luke was sleeping and Chad and I were just sitting.....sitting there in complete stillness and silence that we said, "this is the first moment like this that we've had all week!"  Hmmmm......restful vacation? Maybe not....but certainly one that made alot of very sweet memories...

 like when we arrived and grandma had matching Mickey pj's laid out on the beds for all the kiddos... and when the boys met Mickey and all their other favorite characters for the first time.  so cute as they all held out their autograph books to be signed. and when we rode Dumbo.....and when Jack couldn't help but be a 6 six year old and smile that sweet cheesy grin.....and when we all rode the monorail for the first time....and when Chase saw Lightening McQueen (his absolute favorite racer), or even better when a birthday cake appeared for him with Lightening on it!.....and when we got to watch their faces when they saw the fireworks over the castle.....and when Luke rolled over for the very first time!!....and when every night we went out to eat and mommy did not need to cook or do any dishes.....and when we saw all of the amazing animals on the Safari ride at Animal Kingdom......and when Jack got to go swimming at nighttime with daddy....and when I remembered how much I loved doing that when I was little......and when they would climb into bed exhausted from their day and snuggle up with Mickey....and when Chase got his birthday button....and wore it all day......and then for three more days after that....until it finally broke!  Ha!  so many wonderful moments.....here's a look!
