YAH another trip report!!! I can't wait to hear about all y'all adventures! Welcome to Louisiana! You need to come way down South to hear the difference in talking and the hospitality! Different from North Louisiana. I'm glad you are feeling better or at least you look like you feel better in the picture. Congratulations on the Graduation!

I am definitely finding North Louisiana to be a lot different from what I am used to as it is

Thank you I am feeling much better!

Thank you!

To heck with the fact that you just moved to a new city and into a new house where you redecorated everything. :rotfl2:

works over, let's get this party started !

PrincessCaitlin · May 24, 2013

Sorry it took me so long to get around to an update I have been busy putting my life together here and I am very happy! Finally being with my husband has been pretty great! You all aren't here to listen to my life updates so let's get to the good stuff DISNEY!!!!!

We awoke pretty early on our travel day, Mom doesn't usually sleep well and I wanted to get to the gym one last time. Yes this means I went at like 5 in the morning but don't judge After I got back to the house we packed up and headed out. This was a sad goodbye because I had to say goodbye to all of my puppies until Christmas It was also the last time I would see Dad in Michigan until Christmas It was rough but we made it through and made it through security in no time.

The flight was uneventful as most flights usually are. We had a bit of turbulence but nothing major and I spent most of my time playing Candy Crush, reading and coloring in my Star Wars coloring book.

After we landed we headed to the Magical Express. This was our first time flying in on a Saturday and boy was it packed!!!! We had to wait about 20 minutes before finally boarding but I was excited to watch clips from the upcoming Disney movie Teen Beach Movie. Yes I am 22, I color in coloring books and I have programmed in my phone to watch a Disney Channel movie.

Once on the ME the excitement really set in! Who doesn't love watching the clips of what you're going to see on your upcoming vacation?! It always makes me a bit misty and super happy!

Our first stop was our hotel Art of Animation!!!

We were here! After a few months since our last trip and even longer since a good trip (meaning sick not meaning getting married made it bad ) so it was time!

I had been looking at pictures online but nothing compared to actually seeing this resort!

I love all of the colors!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I tend to be a pretty colorful person so it was perfect!

I quickly ran to the online check in line! This was my first time using the military discount Just one of many reasons I married Andrew

The chandelier was amazing! I loved seeing all of the different artwork on it! It was interesting to see all of the ideas for different characters and compared to how they ended up looking in the movies.

It was also nice seeing all of the resort specific merchandise

After getting acquainted with the resort it was time for a snack before we headed to our room and the park!

Each section in the cafeteria is dedicated to the background artwork from the Disney movies they have on display at the resort. That picture is from the Lion King Section.

It was tough making decisions since as most of you know I am now gluten free. This means I did not have one of these for a snack.
