Disney Trip Highlights






Our trip to Disney World was the first time that I have completely planned a vacation by myself (pretty much) from beginning to end, so I was nervous that, if we didn't have a great time, it would really be my fault.  Well, the kids had a blast, and I (humbly) label this vacation as a huge success.  We enjoyed several dinners with different characters, where the boys whipped out their autograph books to have signed (on a not unrelated note, Carson repeatedly commented on the fact that he liked to smell the signature after each character signed.  They signed with a Sharpie that I brought...Umm, should I be nervous yet?).  In addition, it was a "Star Wars Weekend" at Hollywood studios, so the boys got to see tons of their favorite SW characters.  We could not possibly have packed anymore into the 4 days in the parks, and we wouldn't change a thing.  I think all of us are going to remember this vacation!  We can't wait to go back...maybe in 3 or 4 years.

Disney Trip: Jedi Training Academy - Brady Fights the Dark Side

Brady will tell anyone who asks that this experience was his favorite of our trip.  What a cool thing for a Star-Wars-Loving boy to be able to do.  As you can hear at the end, I cheered super loud, just like I will when he plays lacrosse or stars in a play (or whatever).  I was quite proud!
