Disney 2019!

Disney 2019

We made our trip to Florida!  We drove for 2 days and arrived at Disney. We were greeted by some of Peter's family. We went to Magic Kingdom on Monday and Tuesday, Animal Kingdom on Wednesday, and Universal Studios on Thursday.  We spent Friday and Saturday in Bradenton (Sarasota area) with family. Then driving back home for 2 days.  The entire trip went really well and I am so thankful we were able to go! 

 Ella was ready for all the roller coasters. Ty was ready for the ones he was tall enough to ride. He was cool and calm on the rides. Cort was nervous for many of the rides and roller coasters were out of the question.  Tripp was all in for everything.  He was on every roller coaster he was tall enough for, with a huge smile on his face.  

As far as the characters were concerned, Ella Ty and Cort enjoyed meeting them. Tripp only wanted to meet Goofy.  He met Goofy at dinner and then didn't say hi to another character for the rest of the week!

We have so many pictures, but here are a few!

Ty liked to leave messages in our Lion King room


Ella in the favorite chair. Our Lion King room was fantastic. There was a bedroom with a queen bed and its own bathroom. The sofa bed slept 2 and the table was a murphy bed that came down and slept 2.  Along with a kitchenette and a second bathroom.  All of it was excellent for the 6 of us!

More characters but no Tripp :)


Peter and Ella did the Expedition Everest roller coaster and got a picture, complete with effects!

Day 5 in Bradenton - we did some swimming at the hotel, the went to the ocean to find shells and have a picnic at sunset!





Day 6  We went to look for Manatees but saw some really big fish and stingrays. We also did more swimming, then had dinner and watched the original Star Wars for the first time!


Thank you Gma and Gpa for this time in Florida with you! We certainly enjoyed it all!!
