Disney Day 8- December 29

 Jordy started off the day with a cup of coffee...

 Only joking, of course-

 We went to Epcot for lunch.  We ate in Germany and had a wonderful experience.  We really enjoyed the food, and we also loved the musical show.

 We walked back to our room for a short break before...

 Before we decided to be crazy people again.... Magic Kingdom here we come!

 First stop- we got to see Anna and Elsa!  So much fun!  We have no pictures of this- those are all Disney Photos.  But, they are beautiful- once we decided what we will purchase, I will post those.

 Next, we rode on the carousel...which makes me happy, happy, happy!

 We headed over to Gaston's Tavern for a quick drink of Frozen Apple Juice...

 We had to stop for another snack which was one of my favorites- a white chocolate marshmallow covered Olaf!

 Then onto my favorite ride at Magic Kingdom- Under the Sea...

 Love this new ride... can't wait for Disney to make more new rides!

 Next, we headed over to It's A Small World... because we can't leave Magic Kingdom without riding this ride at least once!

 Then, we ended up our night back at Epcot beside the Wishing Well where Snow White usually stands getting her picture made with everyone.  We got some popcorn and sat in a quiet spot enjoying the evening.  We had a really busy day today, but we enjoyed every minute.

Disney Day 7- December 28

 Woody was ready to go today...If we heard do you have a snake in your boot once... we heard it a thousand times!

 We ate lunch at Beaches and Cream which was a lot of fun!  This is located at Beach Club which is right across from the Boardwalk.  So, it was a quick walk over.  This is a small place to eat with only about 12-15 tables.  It looks just like you have stepped back in time.  Jamie said his burger was the best one in the park. I ordered a hot dog just so I wouldn't be full - since we had to get ice cream!  It was the best hot dog ever!

 Afterward, we went to the beach to take lots of pictures... and for Lily to play.  They have the best beach ever.  There were only two other families that were out there that day.  It was truly magical!

 Nothing like doing some gymnastics on the beach...

 Or drawing Mickey Mouse in the sand...

 Or making a castle for a princess...

 We walked back over to the Boardwalk for a quick break....

 Before going back to Hollywood Studios...

 We ate at Pizza Planet which is actually one of Lily's favorite places to eat.  She loves their little pizzas, and I love the caesar salad that comes with her pizza.

 Finally... we made it back to the lights...

 This year, to go along with seeing the lights- we also got to look for all of the hidden Mickeys.  There are around 80 or so hidden in the lights.  We loved looking for these!

 The Osbourne lights are always on the top of our list for one of our favorite things at Christmas...

Lily also decided on her second scroll present.  This one was very thought out...she chose BayMax for her Myrrh gift because her scroll gift said that it was believed to be good for healing hearts.  She said BayMax was a personal healthcare companion who helped to heal so he would be perfect to represent her Myrrh gift.  Plus, she loves him with her heart.  We thought all of that made for a perfect choice!

Disney Day 6- December 27

 We started our day just taking some fun pictures outside our door in the hallway.

 There aren't many pictures for today because this was a Magic Kingdom day and it was CRAZY.  I love Disney World more than you can imagine.  We love it so much that years ago we traveled to Paris, France and we went to Disneyland Paris which was also wonderful.  It was also at Christmas, and we loved it.  But, I seriously love all the parks at Disney way more than I love Magic Kingdom.  I love being there when no one else is there...it is magical, and the rides are wonderful.  But, being there with a crowd can be completely awful.  So, we always get really pumped up about going and we talk about how crazy it is going to be.  We have to prepare ourselves for this park...

 So we hustled and bustled through this park all day... riding rides and spending time rolling our eyes at each other... people watching is always a fun thing to do here.  By dinner time, we were ready for Casey's Corner.  It was a madhouse, but we prayed and of course- God provided us with a table so we could eat.  Lily enjoyed a few bites of cotton candy after our yummy corn dog nuggets.

 Then, we stopped by the BabyCenter for a few moments of calm and peace to watch Boba Fett feed Batman.  Love Disney for providing these areas to feed your baby in a calm environment.

 We watched Elsa freeze the castle over and over again throughout the night which was seriously cool.  The major renovations that Disney is doing to this park also didn't help the crazy feel.  But, that is just part of Disney World.  They are always building and making it better.  It does help to know some different ways to go... so that at least helps while you are here.  Of course, it doesn't hurt that we have been so many times before when no one was there- and then Magic Kingdom is just as magical as ever.

 Before turning in for the evening, we stopped to get some Olaf Cake Pops.  Lily chose a caramel apple for her treat for the day.  But, we had them to cut it up for us so we didn't take a picture of that!
