Our first pit stop was the Atlanta Aquarium
^^I asked Ellie to pose for me...she decided the yoga tree pose was most fitting^^
After the playground and a few more stops...Win would not sleep in the car so we stopped in Lake City, FL. I never saw this so called Lake...should be called Shady City, FL. But we finally made it.
We were right out side of the Ariel. Ellie loved it.
We spent the afternoon at the splash pad at the resort. I seriously need one of this in my backyard.
Fultons for Lyell's birthday dinner. The food was amazing and when we were getting up to leave, a family came up to Lyell and me to comment how well behaved our kids were. Our response was, "Well Thank You. They didn't even take naps so it must be a Disney Miracle."
^^Win could wait for a picture, he wanted to dive right into Daddy's birthday dessert. ^^
The kids loved Dumbo...We rode it three times.
Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor was one of my Fastpass choices. Weird one, I know. But Ellie loves Monsters, Inc and we really had no clue what to expect. It ended up being a interactive comedy show where they would pick people in the audience to play along. Low and behold, Ellie was picked to be Boo, the main little girl in the movie!! Ellie was flashed up on screen several times throughout the performance. Lyell captured the end credits. It was one of our highlights of the whole trip for sure. Ellie walked around the rest of the day acting like she was a movie star.
Poor guy got three teeth and an ear infection during our trip. He was a trooper though.
^^ Win might have fallen asleep but Ellie kept on dancing throughout the day^^
I was a magical day.
Our next day was spent heading our to Park Fare and had brunch with some charaters.
And what we all have been waiting for...Win meeting Winnie the Pooh. I mean, come on, it was the cutest thing I have seen to date!!!
We explored some more. Went to Downtown Disney for some shopping and one last night swim.
^^ We bought a little Fuji polaroid camera for me and Lyell Ellie. I scanned in a few we all took on the trip...
It really was a wonderful trip. Yes, we might have been crazy for taking a one and two year old. We took it slow. One Magic Kingdom day, one resort day and one character day...its all they could have handled anyway. I know they won't remember anything. But I will. And Lyell will. And it was magical!! I may or may not have already started planning our next trip for when Win turns three. We learned some things too...next time we will be flying. No question. Its not a small world after all on a 13 hour drive with two toddlers :)
