Back in September, we pulled off a big early Christmas surprise thanks to Mimi and Papa Jud! I told the boys I was checking them out of school early for a dentist appointment. When they saw that Josh, Mimi and Papa Jud were also in the car they just assumed they were in town to watch Drew while I was at work. Wrong! :) I had cut out letters that said Walt Disney World and the plan was for them to put the puzzle pieces together before getting to the airport. But because I have such smart little boys, they figured it out before we got out of the school parking lot!!! I was waiting for them to scream with excitement, but instead I think they were in shock because they just sat there. It wasn't until we were actually on the airplane almost to Orlando that the excitement really kicked in!
Reid and me on the plane!

Day 1 was spent at Magic Kingdom
It really is a magical place!!

In line to ride Winnie the Pooh
Riding the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train
Reid was so excited to be in the front car and kept his hands raised the entire time!
Riding Buzz Lightyear
Back at the hotel for an afternoon rest.
For the parade, Papa Jud talked his way into the VIP section. This was the best place to see the parade! All of the characters interacted with the boys.
The place was decorated for fall and Halloween!
This squirrel was loving this big peanut!
We took this picture for MeMaw who said she loved seeing the Beast the first time she went to Disney World!
Drew LOVED the parade. He waved the entire time!
Gaston from Beauty and the Beast
We had cinnamon rolls at Gaston's Tavern and they were the size of our heads! (And also very delicious!!)
And this about sums up how we felt after a long, fun day!
Day 1 was a blast! Up next: Day 2 at Hollywood Studios
