Orlando Part 2

Day 4:  Tuesday, November 15th:  Universal Studios

Another fun day at the theme parks.  We had so much fun at Harry Potter World last year, we had to do it again.  I think I go there just to get the butterbeer and these awesome Chocolate Chunk cookies.  So sad that my excitement seems to always revolve around food.

Melyn....here is the picture of you guys that I forgot to send to you.
BTW...these aren't random people.
That's my cute sister-in-law Melyn and her studly husband, my brother, Jordan

                                                

We also love SuessLand for the kids.

Then we were off to SuperHero World.  One of the big goals of hitting 40 inches for E was to go on the SpiderMan ride.  He loved it!



 

That night, we took the kids swimming at the hotel pool.  Got to love when it's 85 degrees in November.  Yeah, we did. 

Day 5:  The Darth Vader Duel & Magic Kingdom

We woke up bright and early, again, to make it to Hollywood Studios before it opened to wait in line for the boys to sign up to become Jedi Warriors and get the chance to defeat Darth Vader.  We stood in line and finally got our time for 1:00 that afternoon.  Sadly, E wasn't old enough, but surprisingly he didn't complain.  We went on Star Tours enough times that I think he got enough of his Star Wars feel. 

It was so fun to watch them.  I think Creighton was the youngest one there and the Jedi Master kept making fun of him.  This was quite humorous, especially because Creighton laughed along with them. 

I will try and remember to upload the video we took of this for all those people that have kids that are Star Wars fans.  I think we watched other people's home videos on YouTube dozens of times before they got to do this themselves.  So fun.

We rode more rides:

Saw more characters:

And then headed over to Magic Kingdom for the rest of the day and rode all our favorite rides again. 

I love these pictures Melyn took:

 Such a fun day!

Day 5:  Thursday, November 16th

We had nothing planned!  It was needed too because our kids were worn out.  We went over to downtown disney and looked at legos, ate my favorite pretzals, and went to a few of the disney stores.

Since it was a very warm 85 degrees that day (gosh that sounds so good right now), we spent the rest of the afternoon at the hotel pool.  It was a nice way to end the trip.

The following day we boarded the plane (after Easton throwing up a few times...while on the plane too) and headed home.  Thankfully, it was Friday and I had Mitch home the next two days while we all recovered from such a fun trip.

Yes, we are spoiled.  So much fun.
