Disney World 2008

We just returned from a week long stay at Walt Disney World. It was fun but exhausting! The boys really could appreciate all the characters because they watch Mickey Mouse playhouse on Disney and they watch a lot of the movies. Luke would repeat "Hi Mickey, Hi Mickey, Hi Mickey" over and over until Mickey came over and then he would stick his finger in his mouth and look at the floor or scowl at him. It was really funny. We did a character breakfast and a dinner and that was when they would get up close and personal with the characters. The picture of Luke with Donald Duck really cracks me up. The crowds were not bad at this time of year, but the heat could be unbearable sometimes. Joey and I went to Disney 5 years ago, before we had children, with Christina and her boys and Elizabeth, Scott, and their children. I'm leaving him behind next time because he failed to see the "magic" this time-he thought it was more stressful with kids. I love Disney World, always have! It's been 15 years since I worked there on the college program. We went to Typhoon Lagoon this time and I got to visit my former work place. To all those college age cousins, look into the college program- it was one of the best summers for me!

We celebrated Luke's 2nd birthday at our house the night after we got back. Samuel and Luke love having their cousins over! This week Samuel will start preschool- barring anymore hurricane breaks that is. I'll just scream if another comes our way!
