Day 1: Disney World

I did a little research before we came to Florida. We didn't really know what to expect or really what to do. We asked friends and did some Internet searching. We decided that we would just do Magic Kingdom at Disney World. (There are 4 different parks inside Disney World and you have to pay an entrance fee to each one. We decided one was enough for us.)

It was a magical day!

Firs things first...When we woke up it was pouring rain. While we were watching the news the weather man said, "For those of you on vacation here--you picked a bad time. This rain is going to stay around all day." PERFECT. What a way to start the day.

We had to make the best of it though. We decided to put on our rain gear and head to Disney World. As we were getting out of our car the rain clouds parted and the sun came through....and the humidity knocked off our socks (..I mean our crocs!) We put our rain gear in our bags and headed for a day of fuzzy hair! (I decided to just put the blow drier back in the bag...no use for the flat iron either. It would've been an absolute waste of time. Pony tail weather!)

It was a great day! The lines were short and we were able to ride all the rides we wanted too. We ate lunch with Tigger and Pooh (which made Carsen's day!) While we were strolling through Frontier Land Carsen spotted his dream 'a gun'! We bought it for him and he didn't let go of it the entire trip. (We had to convince him on the airplance that it had to go underneath or they would take it away from him. It was the first thing he asked for when we got in the car in Utah).

Carsen's favorite was driving the race cars with his Daddy. The funniest thing happened at lunch...It was about 3 o'clock by the time we finally ate lunch. We had been roaming around the park for several hours by that time. After we were finished with lunch we were deciding what to do next. Out of nowhere Carsen looks at all of us and puts his fist on the table and says, "Okay....I'm tired." We all started laughing because he finally was able to admit he was winding down.....(a miracle!) My parents took he and Myka on some train (for a bit of a cat nap) while Chad and I went and rode some bigger rides.

Everyone had such a fun time! It was also Chad's first time ever experiencing the whole Disney theme park...(he and Carsen were able to experience it together)!
