Florida-The Magic Kingdom

On the last day of our trip to Florida we decided to go to the Disney World's Magic Kingdom. The last time we went to Disneyland with the boys I was pregnant with McKay and I couldn't go on very many of the rides, so I was excited about actually riding them.
We were pleasantly surprised that they were getting ready for Halloween and everything we decorated so fun! I love fall and I love Disneyland, so Disneyworld decorated in fall decorations is right up my ally!




To be honest being around all of the kids and seeing things that the boys would be thrilled with made Josh and I pretty homesick for our kids. I can't even tell you how many times we said "the boys would love..." It was a lot. I guess it was a good thing we were going home the next day.

Once again, it was a great time to be here as the ride lines were so short! We had to wait about 10 minutes for everything. Most of the people there were speaking different languages as well.  I couldn't believe how many people from different countries were there, it was so fun.  We met people from Germany, England, and a lot from Brazil.  
It was fun to see the things that were different about Disneyland and Disney World. This was one of them. It was funny, every once in a while this sculpture would hiccup bubbles.
I have never had a Dole Whip in Adventureland before is that crazy or what? I saw a recipe for them on Pinterest and everyone went crazy over it. I thought it must be something that I needed to try. It was so good!

They had a great parade going on. We took pictures on Josh's phone and sent them to the boys.
Can I be honest that I love the Disney princesses every bit as much now as I did when I was a kid. I still get butterflies with the romance of it all.
We ate lunch at the Plaza (because everything else was closed! We came on the one day that they were closing early for some sort of celebration...lame) It was pretty good though.


The castle in the Magic Kingdom has as stage built into it and shows going on every so often. It was really cute. We stopped to watch it quite a few times...





We had such a great time on our vacation and can't wait to bring our boys back here!

Poor boys, I don't think Cody would ever forgive me if I went to all those fun Florida places without him. He already wants to go to Harry Potter World and of course anything Disney. So cruel to send the boys lots of pictuures of everything they missed. I think you really owe them big time :)

You are hilarious! We so do not owe them. Do you know how many adventures I have taken those boys on? Not feeling bad at all :) Although we did miss them!

I am so jealous that you got to do all of that fun stuff with just your husband. I told my husband that he needs to go on a business trip to Florida, but he didn't think that would happen anytime soon! Loved all of the pictures, but it made me really want to go to Disneyland during Halloween time!

Kristen you will love it! I think Disneyland is really cool too. It really was fun to be just with Josh.
