Our trip to Disney World!!!


We are home,trick or treating and my birthday are now over and I can finally get to an update and downloading the pictures...and Jen really wants to see these:)!! Wow- we had such a wonderful time...I can't say enough, October is such a wonderful time to go! The weather was overcast, mostly cool, lines were short and it was such a blessing while traveling with Hanna to have those advantages.

We left very early in the morning and we were able to see the sunrise on the airplane, that was a true thing of beauty, we will not soon forget! Hanna loved the plane ride, colored and chit chatted with our flight attendant about things she was excited to do. We landed and used Disney's Magical Express to whisk us off to our hotel, no bags, no lines, wonderful! They delivered our bags to our room for us a few short hours later, Joe loved that;).


We stayed at the Disney All Star Movie Resort, it was so fun. A Fantasia pool, Herbie the Love Bug room and great food court. Hanna got a "1st visit" pin when we checked in- she was treated like a princess from the very beginning .....

We visited each park and left 3 days for the Magic Kingdom, which was a good decision, there was so much there she loved, it was time best spent. I underestimated how much she would want autographs and meet every character possible!!! She loved this, no matter how long the line, she wanted to meet everyone. So, we did just that.

We also had some wonderful surprises for her, such as Cinderella breakfast in the Royal Castle. We kept this a surprise from her until the very moment we walked in. The look on her face was priceless. And of course the experience This was amazing, all the trouble booking it was well worth it!!




The Princess Dinner at Akershus Banquet Hall in Epcot was also wonderful! The Princesses were so nice, stopping by each table and talking with us, This is were Hanna got to spend them most time with Sleeping Beauty- her FAVORITE!!


We also did a Winnie-the Pooh buffet at The Crystal Palace. The dining plan was such a great fit for us, I highly recommend it to any family considering it.We had our reservations, no waiting for a table and ate where and when we wanted. It was well worth the money, if only for the stress it takes away, but also, we found it to be a great value.

Some of our favorite things were: The Fantasmic water and fireworks show at Hollywood Studio's- really- this was simply amazing!! The Spectromagic Parade at Magic Kingdom, Story Time with Belle at Magic Kingdom, Lion King Show at Animal Kingdom. Soarin', a flying ride at Epcot, Turtle Talk with Crush, where he talked to Hanna!! There are too many to list...:)

This was truly the best trip we have ever taken, I feel so blessed that we were able to take her at such a magical age. Joe was never able to go as a child and he was so excited that this is something she will cherish forever. So, here are some of my favorite
