Disney World

So it's been a while since I posted last, but I just HAD to share some of our Disney World experiences!!  The girls, Rebekah, and I invaded Ruth and Phil's anniversary trip to Orlando. (They invited us!)  We only went for a few days, but we had a blast!  We spent 4 days in Orlando and 2 days at the park!  I won't bore you with all the details, but....

Outside the World of Disney
I'm terrified of heights, but Bella wanted to ride this.  Emmie Kate did too, Charli chickened out....Did I mention I'm TERRIFIED of heights?!
Day two....Heading to the Magic Kingdom....The girls were so excited they started screaming!  Charli said "Oh, this is even better than READING!"  Gotta love my little nerd! ;)




Day two at the Animal Kingdom!  Bella was my "riding buddy."  This is us on the safari, which was AWESOME!
After standing in line forever to meet characters, we walk around the corner and Terk from Tarzan was just standing on a hill all by herself!  Bella was the only one who would go up and hug her!  We thought she would be scared of everything, but after two days of riding and loving everything and meeting everyone she could meet, we nicknamed her "Bella the Brave!"

While we were waiting on the big "kids" to get off a scary dinosaur ride, Uncle Phil, the girls, and I decided to ride a not so scary dino ride!  Charli informed me she wanted to ride by herself :( 
Emmie Kate and Uncle Phil on the dino ride!
Charli and Bella with Lilo & Stitch.  Emmie Kate was scared of ALL of the characters we met except Winnie the Pooh.  This is before the rain started!  

So, halfway through the day, it started raining, and raining, and raining, and raining...you get the idea!  It started while the we were on the roller coaster Expedition Everest.  Do you know how bad it hurts to ride a really fast outdoor roller coaster in the pouring rain?  Well, unfortunately, I do!  It stings really, REALLY bad!  Haha!  Anyways, after that, our day was pretty much over, so we headed back to the hotel. The girls were exhausted anyways...
Emmie Kate was out before we got out of the parking lot.

Bella fell asleep watching a movie!  She was snoring even! 
We really had a wonderful time! The girls cried when we left!  We are already planning our next visit, and can't wait! I have so many more pictures, but these were some of my favorites!
