I'm late but here!
we did take a 26 hour road trip with 2 small children to see the Osborne Lights one last time!
You are definitely brave, but it was for a good reason after all
and I almost didn’t want it to happen!
Yikes! Is it possible that two DIS'ers didn't want to go to WDW?!?
Crazy that we both thought the same thing, but in the end, aren't you so glad it happened??
We couldn’t imagine not getting one last visit to say a proper farewell to the lights, and we wanted at least DS to have a chance to experience them when he was old enough to remember.
Exactly, I wanted to see them one last time. Too bad our new baby won't be ever be able to see how cool they were.
The benefit of driving was that we had brought DD’s Pack’n’Play so we didn’t have to wait on the hotel to bring us a portable crib.
That and sometimes the hotels are pretty gross
What a vibrant tree, how fun!
It took her a bit of time on the phone, but she was not only able to get us a first floor room, but we were upgraded to a water view preferred room in Trinidad North!
Pre-kids, all I wanted was upper floors, now i'm just praying for first level floors
This was our first time renting from Orlando
Stroller Rentals, and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking to rent a stroller for their trip!
Cool, i'll have to remember this company. DH was really set on the idea of renting through a company or even renting the strollers at WDW, but I knew there were tons of places we could rent them from, and really, I didn't want to do any type of research this trip. Super lazy!
How are you taking these pics?!
This is a kids platter?! Good grief that is an adult sized serving, IMO! Or at least, my size serving
You guys take some beautiful shots. What camera do you use? My poor DSLR has been neglected for a while now. I remember in 2010, I took my video camera, DSLR and my P&S. Every trip it seems i've dropped an item out of the 'list' so it would be less to carry around. This was the first trip ever in history, I only used my iPhone to take pics/video with!
But boy was it nice not having to carry multiple items!
Aw love the running shot!
How cute you are with the carrier!
There’s DH’s and DS’s scores. I can only assume that since there is no photographic proof of my score, I must have wiped the floor with them!
That's my kind of thinking!
Agh, I just LOVED watching Dinosaurs growing up!
I think they also played the one where you pick up the body parts off a conveyor belt and place them correctly. Yes, that’s a thing.
Since typing all of this, they have closed Habit Heroes permanently!
Oh no! I hadn't even heard of this before, but the way you talked about it, I thought for sure DS would be interested in something like this for next time. Geez, that's too bad.
When we got to the end outside part, DS looked at me and yelled, “But I didn’t make a fast car!” lol It gets him every time!
You don't hear boys wanting that often!
I spotted some Cheerios on the floor and pointed them out to DS, joking with him that I’d found him something to eat for a snack. He dropped down to his knees to pick one up and I barely managed to swat it out of his hand before he put it in his mouth! He thought I was serious!!
I find it hilarious how serious they take us! Just now while putting DS down for a nap, DH and I were in there helping him and he was looking for his Woodstock stuffed animal to sleep with and I stupidly said (mainly to DH), "maybe it's up your butt!" Wouldn't you know, his hand starts going for his butt before I stopped him
Not going to be saying stuff like that anymore
I just didn't think I could go all the way to Disney during Christmastime and not see the Castle lit up.
Her outfit is so sweet!!!
I'm pretty sure we've all made that face when the monorail leaves without us
That is adorable!
Will be back to finish the rest!
