This week is going to be a treat for me. We are in Kissimmee, FL at Bible Baptist Church. They have a Christian school of 600 kids and have invited Audrey to attend classes with them. It was so nice to day to get things done in the morning that normally have to wait until the end of the day.
Yesterday we went to Walt Disney World. We were taken to the park by a retired employee. Every time she gets inside, she can bring three people in free of charge. The church has several of those, so two families went together to help us get in. We had a blast! Upon entry in the Magic Kingdom we met Pluto and went to have him sign the kids' autograph books. Jordan went right up, but Joey wanted nothing to do with him. Next we went to Mickey's house to have him sign the kids' books. They waited in line for about 30 minutes, but when they were finally there it was worth it all. They take the kids one family or two at a time to another room where Mickey is and they can have pictures taken with him. Jordan and Joey were so excited. Jordan kept telling Mickey that he had him on his clothes. Joey wouldn't stop hugging him so we could take a picture. When we finally got him to turn around, we took the picture and started to leave. Joey ran back and kissed Mickey on the nose. It was so cute.
Audrey especially liked the Princess room. She got to meet Belle, Snow White and Cinderella at the same time. That was great. Afterward, we went on lots of rides. The kids' favorite ride was Splash Mountain. I was amazed that Jordan was tall enough to get on it. I was very nervous that he would scream the whole time, but he did great. In fact he wanted to get on again, but we didn't want to wait in line for over an hour just to ride it. Our first time on it we had fast boarding tickets. You can get one at a time for quick boarding at a set time of the day.
The kids got a special treat when we were leaving. They got to ride in the front of the monarail car with the driver. When they got off they received a "co-pilot" license for the monarail.
We saw the parade and Jason and I enjoyed seeing the kids' faces more than the parade. They were in awe of the whole thing. We are tired after the full day, but we have a lot of memories of a great day.
