A Week With Mickey

The week went by as fast as the Dumbo Ride. It seems you stand in line forever and then in the blink of an eye, the ride is over. So it was with the whole week.

Each one of the grandchildren had their own favorite rides and memories

Hunter didn't get to go on as many rides, but he found some good hiding places where only he could go.

 We all met with Mickey for a family picture.  Some cast members used our cameras to make sure that everyone of us got into the picture.
We had to rest from time to time. Grandpa did pretty good, but still isn't as strong as he used to be. 

On Thursday morning, we had a breakfast with in Ariel's Grotto. Several of the Disney Princesses showed up to meet with the guests. Here they are with Sleeping Beauty.

Minnie Mouse showed up. She was Kennedy's Favorite

Cinderella took time to pose with Ben and Kennedy


Ben and Peter competed in the Bumper Cars. I wish I had video of the first part of their ride.

Friday Morning, our grandchildren found Mickey just inside the park entrance. The park hadn't officially opened yet, so we got some good pictures. Our family was the last ones they let take pictures before Mickey had to go with his escorts.

Kennedy loved the car rides. She didn't want to get out of this car, but luckily it was stationary. When she rode in the car for the Monsters, Inc ride, she WOULD NOT get out when the ride was over. I think she liked the little TV screen that was there for her to watch.

The week went by quickly.  We are tired and sore, glad to be home, but feel  blessed to be able to spend Marriott Points building memories in this way.

Such a great week! I love the picture of all of us with Mickey. It's a great picture.

Thank you for the wonderful week! Our whole family (but especially Peter and Ben) loved it.

I LOVE the pictures from the Dumbo ride. The expression on Peter, Ben, and Kennedy's faces perfectly describe the trip. Thanks!

Looks like SOOO much fun, and tremendous memories for all. The only thing missing is the picture of Prince Charming for me to admire as well. :D
