Day 5.

Animal Kingdom.

ok. this park runs a close second

to our favorite park of the trip.

we had a blast at animal kingdom.

it is such a beautiful low key park.

it was nice to take it slow and just enjoy the sights.

so this is everest.

it is the best roller coaster!

when you get to the top it looks like the

track has been torn apart by a yetti

so you shoot backwards for a minute.

awesome!

i can't count how many times we went on it.

the safari ride was awesome.

just to be out there with elephants, tigers,

lions, giraffes, and what ever that thing is was awesome!

animal kingdom, you treated us right

and we love you.

Day 4.

the kids were excited for magic kingdom.

its just like disneyland, only more spread out.

griff wasnt so sure about the characters sometimes.

other times he ran right up to them.

i think the ones he loves the most

he was scared of the most?!

griff was dying to see buzz all day.

well, here it is.

sound asleep!

we took him back another day.

Night of day 2. Day 3.

our second day we just hung out and recovered from

the previous days activities.

when my mom, dad, and step mom arrived

we all headed out to downtown disney.

it was so fun and got us all pumped up for the

rest of the week!

emmas friend told us about this place

so we headed there for dinner and

it was really good.

she wants one in utah now.

Day 2 Epcot.

the kids had a lot of fun

going through the different countries.

they kept saying,

"is this what its like there?"

disney does a great job of making it seem that way!

i thought my kids might be bored at epcot but they loved it.

favorites:

test track

turtle talk

the countries

the yummy samplings from each country

captian E.O.

communication ride

jumping water

i'm so glad you come and visit once in a while.

with that being said i'm going to blog our trip.

and its going to take a few days.

it was that good.

airport.

the morning started off so great.

we were all so happy to finally be going on

our trip.

then griff fell at the airport.

right on his head.

he was pale.

unresponsive.

lethargic.

we didn't know what to do.

i was a mess, the kids were a mess.

we decided to go forward and get on the plane.

he threw up 4 times.

we knew he had a concussion.

he also slept for 3 1/2 hours of the flight.

then, out of no where

he sits up and says,

"i feel better. i go see mickey mouse!"

nothin like a little hot tubb'n to soothe the soul.

it started out rough but ended up ok.

we were glad to finally be there.

we didn't win the super bowl or anything but....

we're going to

DISNEYWORLD!!!

i hope to be able to

post a few while we're there

but if not,

we'll catch up in 9!

hubby is back in town

after 5 days away.

exhale.

he came in and

handed me flowers.

sigh.

"it isn't good to be alone,

you really should join hands and

be together....together..."
