Heidi is 10 & DISNEY

Some of these pictures will be out of order because its a blend of Chris' phone and my phone...

We decided to do a last minute Disney trip this weekend. Just a quick one - Friday to Monday. We had won the Disney tickets from the St Jude fundraiser and realized we couldn't apply them as we thought or it wasn't worth the exchange to apply them...some cheap flights and hotel room later... we had a trip planned!

The fun part was we didn't tell the girls about the trip. We literally secretly packed Thursday and woke them up on Friday morning. It was cute!

In no particular order...

Chris didn't think I would actually wear the dorkiest outfit to Disney - challenge accepted. What is sad - is I fit in - ha!

We arrived on Friday and went shopping in Disney Springs and went to the pool in the afternoon. Saturday was 13 hours at the parks! Magic Kingdom and Epcot and we had a blast. Very little melt downs even though it was 95+ degrees outside!

We stayed at Coronado Springs and the rooms were nicely remodeled, plus the front desk helped us out and gave us a room real close to the pool!

Sunday we spent a VERY long time at the pool and then ended up going to the Hoop-dee-doo revue! I would HIGHLY recommend going to the Hoop-dee-doo revue. We loved it. All four of us. It was funny, the food was great - all around - fantastic!

Monday was just a wrap up day. The girls were too tired to swim - so we wandered around Disney Springs and our hotel until we could go to the airport. Our flight ended up getting delayed and it made Monday a long travel day as we didn't get home until 1am!


Our first experience with the Minnie Mini Van! It was fun and the cast member was so much fun!

Heidi being called out for her birthday!


Now - reverse back in time - prior to our little trip - it was Heidi's official 10th birthday! She wanted and received a new bike! Thank you to the Grandparents for chipping in- who knew bikes were so expensive!?!


We also went out to eat at Fiesta Jalapenos! Its a tradition!


The servers had some fun with Heidi!


And if that dessert wasn't enough...Heidi requested Menchies too!


This was waking the girls up Friday morning...so confused!


This is when Lucy figured it out!


Oh - we finally took the plunge... we are now official pin traders... most expensive hobby ever!



The weekend was quick - but so much fun! We can't wait to go back in December!!!
