The Jacobs Do Disney...day three

On our third day, we visited Hall-lee-wood!!!


Daisy Duck was waiting for us as soon as we got to the park...she's pretty sassy!


We ran/walked to Toy Story Mania and thankfully, we didn't have to wait too terribly long!



Fun ride.  Everyone loved it!


After that, we met Princess Sofia.


  Jake was a nice pirate...I think Grace may have a little crush on him!


Then, we got to hang out with Minnie in her fabulous dressing room.


She's so fancy!!!


After watching The Voyage of the Little Mermaid, it was time to liven things up a bit with Aerosmith's Rock 'n' Roller Coaster.  John and I just giggled for the entire ride.


"Where should we go next?"


Beauty and the Beast calmed us down after that wild ride.



It was finally time to ride my most favorite ride!!!


Carter was so upset that he didn't get to ride the Rock 'n' Roller Coaster and I felt bad about not letting him ride this too. (I should have just felt bad!)  I explained everything that was going to happen and that it was scary and it feels like you are falling and everything.  He was convinced that he wanted to do it, so...


He did not like it.  Not even a little bit.  I felt HORRIBLE!  When we got off, we were led into a gift shop where I spent around $8 on suckers for him.  He was happy after that!  We then went to Disney Junior Live...more his speed.  All was right in the world again!


We had lunch and naps at our hotel and then went back to Hollywood Studios and watched Muppet*Vision 3D.  It was great!  While we were at the show, it started pouring.  We swam to Pizza Planet for dinner.



We were planning on going to Fantasmic after dinner, but the rain had other plans.  So...Toy Story Mania AGAIN! 




A fun and scary and magical and wet day!

The Jacobs Do Disney...day two

We woke up bright and early and headed to Magic Kingdom!!!


Grandpa and Grandma got in late the night before and we were so excited to meet them at the bus stop.


We got to Magic Kingdom in time to see the Welcome Show!  It was a fun way to start the day!


♫ Good Mornin'
Good Mornin' to you ♫ ♪ ♪


We met Mickey Mouse first thing!



Next, we headed to Adventureland where we rode the Magic Carpets!  Carter was super excited about this ride and it turned out to be his very favorite!  "Watch out, the camels spit!"





After an unsuccessful adventure with the Pirates of the Caribbean which both kids did NOT like, we went to Frontierland.  We rode Splash Mountain.  Carter liked it "a little bit" and Grace loved it!


When we got off Splash Mountain, we met Woody and Jessie! 


Next was Grandpa's favorite...Country Bear Jamboree.  Grace giggled throughout the entire show.  So, Grandpa's tradition may live on!


After lunch, we headed to Fantasyland.  Our first stop was Enchanted Tales with Belle.  This was super cute especially since Grace was chosen to be Chip!




We rode Peter Pan's Flight and got to meet him.


It was getting hot and we were all pretty tired.  We grabbed some ice cream and left to go take much needed naps!



After our naps, we came back to the park and met Tinkerbell.



She was so cute and Carter loved her!



Grace is at the perfect age to visit Disney World and she was enjoying every little thing!


She really had a wonderful time at dinner!  We ate at the Crystal Palace with the characters from Winnie the Pooh.  That girl giggled and bounced the entire time we were there!


Carter only liked Piglet...he waved goodbye with his ear and that may have been Carter's favorite part of the entire trip!




After dinner, we gathered around Cinderella's castle for the Celebrate the Magic show on the castle and the Wishes fireworks show.


Celebrate the Magic was like the neatest thing ever.  Look it up on YouTube.  It was amazing!  Of course, the best part is when the entire park sings "Let It Go" all together. 


Carter doesn't really enjoy fireworks so, he just watches them through his fingers.


Once, we made it back to our hotel...we crashed!
