Animal Kingdom!!!!

This post and the next few are LATE!  I know...Life got in the way (see previous post).  Animal Kingdom was FUN!  We had fast passes for The Lion King musical...Unfortunately,  it was shut down for the day because the sound system went down...We then went to ride Kilimanjaro Safaris.  The kids LOVED it.
We then went to have lunch afterward....We ate at Flame Tree BBQ...It was delicious.  Afterward we went to The Bug's Life show and got in on our fast pass they gave us for The Lion King being down.

 The kids had forgotten about the effects...LOL...Let's just say I had a good laugh between their reaction and their dad's.  After this we went to watch the Finding Nemo musical.  It was the cutest thing EVER!  We are huge Nemo fans here...It really is an awesome show and well done.   You can tell the cast really cares about their jobs with this show.  We then headed toward Kali River Rapids.  Along the way we stopped at Expedition Everest so my hubby and his baby brother could ride, since we still had time for our fast passes.

They are the 2nd row.  You can;t tell but my my husband really did enjoy it....

We had to wait around about another 10 minutes  til our fast pass time.  

This is how they waited....Finally we went to ride....My younger 2 and my mom opted out so we used their fast passes and rode twice!  The first time I got off and I was dry...Not after the 2nd time!  I was SOAKED!  

Wearing their pjs we got them at AK

  

Busy!

Ahh....life, it gets in the way, things happen, and you just get busy!  I know I need to finish our Disney trip posts....I will....and hopefully soon...Homeschooling got in the way and then Thanksgiving happened...For a week before Thanksgiving I started having breathing troubles....My asthma has returned...I occasionally would have a mild attack and my albuterol would help...Well, I thought it was helping til Thanksgiving night after Black Friday shopping.  My husband and family made me go to the E.R.  I am thankful they did...I had too have 2 different breathing treatments 2 times and I was put on steroids for 5 days.  Thankfully I have been doing good since...I have no idea what triggered it.  Then Christmas came.  We had so much fun and had a picnic under the tree and read stories around it.  I also, with the help of my dad, made my daughter a doll house.  We came up with a plan and bought the supplies.  He built it and I painted it and decorated the insides.  Its still a huge hit!  We also had 4 birthdays in between Dec 22 and Jan 24!  I will be updating things and getting it all put here...

Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party Pt 2

We slept in til 10 am.  We went back to Disney Springs for Earl of Sandwich for lunch. We did not go to any parks during the day since we knew we could get into Magic Kingdom at 4 pm with our party tickets.

We got to Magic Kingdom a little bit after 4 pm.  We had no issues getting into the park.  We noticed people already getting spots for the first Boo to You Parade.  We had fast passes for Peter Pan's Flight starting at 5:15, so we went and had dinner at Columbia Harbor House.  I had the seafood mac n cheese which is delicious.

She LOVED the trip!  Of all of my kids she is the one that has the biggest imaginations and definitely believes in fairy tales, princesses, and all things Disney!

My youngest LOVED Peter Pan's Flight and asked us every time we were getting on a ride if we were doing PPF next.  Unfortunately, we only rode it the one time.

It's a Small World was next!  

My youngest loved the "babies" dancing and playing.  lol...  We then went and rode the carousel and Ariel the Little Mermaid ride.  

My husband and I rode Barnstormer with the boys, while my mom got in line with Buggy (my dd) to start trick -or-treating.  We were in line for 10 minutes, rode it, got off took pictures with Goofy, and met up with her by the trick-or-treat path to Tomorrowland.  She already had TONS of candy!  

We took the boys trick-or-treating in Fantasy Land and then headed to Tomorrow Land.  The only thing we didnt ride was the speedway cars (my oldest has asthma) and Space Mt (next time)!  We trick-or-treated our way through and rode TTA and Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin 2x's.

We crossed the HUB and made our way to Adventureland and Frontierland to finish out all the trick-or-treat stops.  First we had to ride Haunted Mansion.  I thought it was supposed to be different at the parties, but it was the same.  My husband and I then rode Big Thunder Mt with my oldest.  We timed is just right so we could watch Hallowishes while we rode.  We laughed so much that ride!  My mom kept the other 2 and watched them from the bridge in Frontierland.  She said she liked her view from there, too. 

 After that we headed to Main Street to watch the parade and the last Hocus Pocus show.  We had front row spots to both!

I am planning on trying to go to just the party next year...We may just take a quick 4 day trip just for the party.  It depends though, we'll see when the time comes.
