Disney World!

Amy, Brock and Sami came for a visit the last week of July. We love them so much and we always have a great time with them. They spent a few days here in Virginia with us. We spent a day at Luray Caverns. We took the girls to the new American Girl store in Tyson's Corner. The boys went to a Nationals game. And we just had a nice time hanging out and relaxing.



Then we all piled into our cars and headed south to DISNEY WORLD!!! Amy and Brock have never been down to visit Andrea and it's hard to pass up the great deal we get whenever we go visit her.
We arrived in Orlando just in time to meet Andrea and sweet little Xander at the Dinosaur restaurant in Downtown Disney. Then we did a little window shopping and took advantage of some picture moments with all the grankids.

We started the first day at the Disney Junior Character Breakfast. It was a delicious breakfast buffet in Hollywood Studios where we could sit, eat, and relax while all the Disney Junior characters came around to each table to meet the kids, give autographs, and pose for pictures.
Then it was off to do some cool rides!







The second half of the day we spent in Animal Kingdom. We had VIP seats to see Andrea perform in Nemo. She does such a great job! It's always so fun watching her. We did a few more rides, had dinner, and then went back to our cabin to CRASH!


We spent day two in Magic Kingdom. Even though it was way HOT, I still think it's the most magical place on earth! I think the heat kept the crowds down too because it really wasn't too bad. We spent the day doing lots of fun rides (and drinking lots of water!) The highlight of the trip for me was the end of the day. Andrea arranged for us to enjoy an exclusive dessert buffet and front row seats to the light parade and fireworks on the Tomorrow Land Terrace. It was the perfect way to end our trip.




Even though we were only there two days we had a blast! And we can't wait to go back someday!
