We had a great time, and great weather..rained some, but thats what ponchos are for. We stay at Saratoga Springs, we love it there.
So this was a surprise trip for my girls, they thought we were going to see my DH's uncle who wasn't feeling well..lol they were not happy about going.
So right before we board the Magical Express, we took them to the side (Dh had the video camera going) and i said "i know you are not happy about going to Uncle's house, but remember i sad if you were good on the plane i'd get you a good surprise"..them" Yes", me "well you want know what it is"? Yes ..all confused..well we are going to Disney! They had the most confused looks on their faces, and my 5 yo says when..NOW!!! They were so excited jumping up and down laughing and yelling YEAH!!!! The Mgical Express lady who tells you what line to go on had tears in her eyes...it was really cute.
So on to the trip..The crowds were pretty good, i think i was expecting less, but no biggie, we go the last week of August, it was about the same.
We were asked to be in the Family Fun Day parade in MK one day, which was really fun, the girls had such a good time..we were in Daisy's group and had to do a little routine with pom poms...Dh was so funny..
We didn't do the Christmas party this year..i think we will do it next year when my girls are a little older (they are 5,4 and 1) i want them to really appreciate it...But the decorations were beautiful, the Osborne lights were great and we visited a lot of the resorts to see their special decorations. The Gingerbread house at the Grand Floridian was Awesome!!!
We also saw Beyonce taping her performance for the Christmas parade..im not a big fan, but it was still pretty cool to see, she does have an amazing voice.
All in all we had a great time, we were all bummed about having to go home, but we willbe back again next year.....
