Disney Day 3 - Magic Kingdom

Our first day at Disney World! Wow, was it fun! Went went to Magic Kingdom and it really was magical. We were just in awe looking at all the surroundings. You can tell they thought about every single detail of the park. We tried to experience as much of the park that we could. We were completely worn out by the time the day was done.

Ryan and Eli in front of Cinderella's castle


Eli with Donald Duck.
We bought autograph books and got every character's
autograph and picture. This was so fun for the kids.
Daddy and Eli waiting in line for "The Pirates of the Caribbean" ride

Some of the pirates on the ride

Mommy and Miss Mia in front of the castle.
Mia was actually sick. She had been throwing up the night before and then she threw up in the car on the way to the park. So, we had to turn around and go back to the house to clean her up. My sweet parents stayed at the house with her until lunch time. She had not thrown up anymore and was running around playing. So, we came back and picked them up. Then she threw up in the car again right as we were getting to the park. So, we went ahead and took her in and GiGi and Poppa bought her a new (clean) Tinkerbell shirt. Thank you Poppa and GiGi. Then she was fine the rest of the day. Just really sleepy. Poor baby.

The whole fam with Capt. Hook and Mr. Smee
(Eli LOVES Capt. Hook and every other villain)

Then we met up with Tamra and Paul and the kids.
Here we were waiting in line again for "Pirates of the Caribbean" again.
We rode it A LOT!

Swiss Family Robinson Tree House

The kids watching Cinderella's Carousal.
Even though they called it Mary Poppin's Carousel,
because it looked just like the one on Mary Poppins.
Benjamin with the sword in the stone.
He was trying so hard to get that sword out.
Mia and Eli at Minnie's house


Race Cars

Eli drove our car. It was a little scary, but very fun!

Ryan drove Mia and she slept the whole time.
Cait drove GiGi!


And Benjamin drove His Dad.

On to the next ride. Mia still asleep of course.

Waiting in line for the "Buzz Lightyear" ride.
This was one of everyone's favorites!
Here we are shooting our laser guns!
(Or "Fo-ton Blasters" as my friend Kelli would call them)

Waiting in line for "It's a Small World".
This was a very old and kind of cheesy ride,
but so cute and the kids loved it!
Poppa and GiGi


Peter Pan ride.
One of Eli's favorites!

The Snow White ride.
This was one of Mia's favorites!
She is always talking about "Snow Wipe" and "the mean old lady"
Everyday we ate lunch at the park and then went back to our
house and had dinner (we took turns cooking).
And then we would all go swimming and head off
to bed. Magic Kingdom was our favorite park!
