Got home yesterday

actually right around dinner time. Just chilled out last night. This morning we had a soccer game, thankfully we got it in before the rain. (Speaking of...I heard it rained here all week. Made the cloudy days in Florida not so bad) So yes we had a great time even though all the days were not brilliant sunshine, but we did manage a few which allowed the kids to get in a few hours at the pool.


We had a great time spent most of our time divided between the Magic Kingdom, Epcot, and Disney's Hollywood Studios...with a few trips over to Dowtown Disney for a couple of meals (we could walk there from Saratoga Springs) Got quite a few rides in on Soarin (my fave ride). New this year is a ride at Hollywood Studios...Toy Story Mania(only got 2 rides on it...the lines were SO long, but it is very cool) it is now on my MUST DO list when I return. Caught a couple of parades....




this is a shot from the one at Disney's Hollywood Studios...loved all the fun bright colors. It was filled with all the characters from the Pixar productions.

It's called.....



they threw out a bunch of these balls towards the end of the parade. Luckily we were able to catch a few. :wink:

Here's a couple of twilight pictures I took at Hollywood Studios.




Later that night we attended the "Fantasmic" show. AWESOME, AWESOME, AWESOME...it's the 3rd time we've seen it. It's hard to explain, but it involves some cool effects with water. They somehow project movies thru a wall of water as they tell this story.

Here's a picture of Mickey after he pulled the sword out of the stone....






So on Thursday while waiting for the bus at the Magic Kingdom....guess who I run into?

Angela & Belle. Yep, teachers convention in New Jersey so everyone heads to Disney!


Well since we headed down on Nov. 1st when we got there the parks were all still decorated for Halloween by the time we left Christmas decorations were up.

Here's the lightpost in the Magic Kingdom......



So that's our vacation in a nutshell. Like I said had soccer today, picked up the dog from the kennel, have soccer again tomorrow, did some laundry....back to the everyday.

Hoping to do some creating soon. (especially now that I have some fun new pictures) Got my box of goodies from Fancy Pants right before I left and I got a box of stuff coming from Coordinates Collections.
