Magical!

That is the word I would use to describe our trip to Walt Disney World! We met up with Eddie's two brothers and sister and their families along with Eddie's mom in Florida. All 19 of us! Sometimes we all hung together and sometimes it was just the four of us. It is safe to say that I think we did everything Disney has to offer including both water parks. It was so fun to watch all the cousins interact while riding all the rides and having fun. Here are just a few pics from the week.

This was taken during our dinner at Chef Mickey's. We got to eat dinner while visiting with Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Donald and Pluto.

Love this pic of my boys walking down Main Street holding hands with the castle in the background.
Fantasmic. This was the best show EVER and well worth the wait! It is in Hollywood Studios and it a water/firework/pyrotechnics/laser show in an outdoor amphitheater. Mickey is having a dream and battling some of Disney's popular villains. A definite must see.
My boys loved Expedition Everest. Zachary and I sat in the first car and I think I had my eyes closed the entire ride. I never even saw the Yeti!
Eddie was picked as an extra in the Indiana Jones Stunt Spectacular show. That's him in the orange robe and blue turban. The show was very cool and I must say that Eddie was the best extra!
One of my most favorite moments is one that I don't have a picture of. We were on Big Thunder Mountain at night while the firework show was going on in the Magic Kingdom. You could almost touch the fireworks in the sky! It was amazing!

We enjoyed the fine dining of Disney as well. We ate in Cinderella Castle, The Coral Reef, Mexico, Italy, and the Grand Floridian Hotel. Gotta love the Disney dining plan!

I absolutely love fireworks, so I was thrilled to get to see the firework displays at the Magic Kingdom and Epcot!

I know there is so much more I am forgetting so I will just stop there. More to come soon.

Ahhh, fun! It's still fresh in my mind... missed the fireworks at Magic Kingdom, but caught them at Epcot. I just loved Epcot. Sounds like you had a great time! And how fun for your DH to be an extra! That was a cool show. My DS loved it.
