The most magical place on earth!!


Now that I have updated you about our Christmas and travels, there is more to talk about! After a week of being home in Alabama, we found out that Disney World put out a great deal for active duty military and their family! Arthur and I talked about it in depth and decided to bite the bullet and go for a couple of reasons:
1) I am getting bigger and more swollen by the day
2) Take a vacation before we have the baby
3) Aden is a great age to remember this experience
4) Arthur had 4 days off from work

We quickly planned the trip, bought groceries (we packed our lunches/snacks everyday), and headed down to Orlando. We kept telling Aden what we were going to do, but his little mind had no idea what was about to happen! We were able to go to all 4 parks and see amazing fireworks/shows/rides! Some of our absolute favorites were the Indiana Jones show, stunt shows, Finding Nemo live show (Broadway worthy!), Disney Playhouse show, Toy Story ride, thunder mountain, It's a Small World, the train ride around the Magic Kingdom, Dinosaur roller coaster ride, the fireworks over the castle and Epcot, the 3-D movies, and every parade that we could possibly see!


Aden had more energy than Arthur and I put together! We were there from the time the parks opened until they shut down! He ran everywhere we went, including to the car as we left each night! We kept seeing kids asleep on their parents shoulders, but not our little tyke! It was a great adventure overall, and we hope to go back again someday! With the military, we also get discounts/free days at Sea World and Busch Gardens, as well as the Disney water theme parks!! They expire before the end of the year, and I'm not real anxious about getting back in a swimsuit anytime soon...so we'll see! Hope you enjoy the pictures!
