Disney World 2009

After a week in the sun and running around all of Disney and to a couple of Orlando Magic games we're back at home and enjoying the much cooler weather. I think Bryan and I have decided that we're true Northwest peeps!

We had so much fun down there though despite the heat. Seeing all of the parks and especially enjoying the Orlando Vs. Boston playoff games 3 & 4 was a blast. We were supposed to sell tickets to one of the games, but didn't really try so, well we had to go! BJ was not sad about it at all and it made us miss the Sonics just that much more. So now the Magic are our new "adopted" team.

Brennen loved seeing the characters, but we were a little disappointed as he was about 1/2" too short for all of the 40" rides, which are most of the fun ones - like Splash Mountain, Big Mountain Railroad & some other ones as well. We've decided the next time we visit Brenns will have to be at least 48" then we can go on everything as a family. With poor Brennen looking to follow my side of the family, that may not be until he's 10!

One of my favorites was Epcot & their country showcase. I know BJ loved all of the rides and he was thrilled he got to go on most everything twice, once with me & once with Bryan. I think his favorite was the Hollywood Tower of Terror. I also loved the waterparks, they were so much fun and everyone had a great time. Plus it helped beat the heat just a little bit!

Here are some pics from our journey - with slideshows at the bottom!
