Wow it has been a rough December! I was sick the first few days, then we went to Walt Diseny World (ok that was not rough!) then a day after we came back, both Jeff and I got really sick - most likely the flu. A week and a half later, and I am finally feeling human again (see what i did there?). Thankfully the kiddo did not get it. Now we are off on vacation again to go visit my parents for Christmas.
I did want to post some pictures from the trip. We crammed in as much Disney Christmas spirit as we could in only 4 days! It was amazing :D

We stayed at Bay Lake Tower, of course. Love how close it is to the Magic Kingdom, and that is the park we went to most. I loved hoe decorated the Contemporary was - love being surrounded by Christmas!
 |
| Eager to get to the Magic Kingdom! |
We started in the Magic Kingdom then went to the studios. Had to see the Osbourne lights! A-maz-ing!!!!

| love this one - Santa pulling the reindeer! |
Before heading back to the hotel, we checked out the Christmas decor in the Grand Floridian.
 |
| Life size gingerbread house! |
Day 2, we went to EPCOT. Had lunch at Via Napoli - so delicious!!! Then we went to Candlelight. Whoopi Goldberg was the narrator. The shoe was spectacular. So moving.
 |
| Very cool gingerbread WDW setup, complete with a train |
 |
| had to meet Mickey! |
 |
| Just so amazing. |
Day 3 was the Magic Kingdom. We went to Micky's Very Merry Christmas party. Well worth the money. Free cookies and cocoa, tons of characters and short lines for rides. Plus there was a special fireworks show, Christmas parade and castle show!
 |
| Breakfast at Gaston's tavern. YUM. |
 |
| ready for the party! |
 |
| he got to dance with Pluto! |
 |

 |

 |
| Mickey doing the nutcracker dance |
 |
| so many characters |
 |
| GORGEOUS!!! |
Last day :( The parade was taped while we were there, so this was the first time we saw the tree. We were able to run over to EPCOT to go to the DVC party, luckily. We just ducked in and ducked out, though, since we had to catch the Magical Express.
 |
| great tree, and I love all of the stuff under it |
 |
| he finally got to meet Pluto! |
 |
| big hugs |

We had such a great trip. It was a whirlwind, but that is what happens! I strongly suggest going to WDW during the Christmas season.
