Day 5

Hollywood Studios Day

The kids were so happy that we finally met back up with the O's at Hollywood Studios.  Kdub, Oli, Aunt K and I met up at the Beauty and the Beast show while the boys met up on some of the rides.  I am glad I have a daughter that will go to these shows with me!  When I went to Disney Land with my parents when I was 10 I wanted to grow up and be a character at Disney Land so I could sing and dance all day every day.  I think I could still do it.

Practicing for the flash mob dance before a parade

Happy cousins waiting for the parade to start

Kdub and Oli meet Handy Many

She sure loves to hug :)  I didn't think she was going to let go of Mr. Incredible.

Waiting for Playhouse Disney Live to start. (Can you tell I really liked the shows just as much as them!)

While the girls were at Playhouse Disney Live and The Little Mermaid show, the boys took in the stunt show.  I wish I could have been there too because according to Pete JP was really excited about it all, especially when Lightning McQueen showed up.

After our fun at Hollywood Studios we made our way to Downtown Disney for dinner and some shopping.  JP was in hog heaven at the Lego Store.

Kdub loved all the princess stuff.  I had each of the kids pick out an ornament for our Christmas tree and she was so cute.  She really struggled because none of the princess ornament sets had her favorite princess Rapunzel but if she just got Rapunzel she wouldn't have the rest of the princesses.  Luckily dad showed up just in time and told her if mom would get her Rapunzel he would buy her the set of princesses.

Day 4

We were supposed to start out our week at Magic Kingdom but when leaving the hotel I didn't bother to look at the first shuttle bus that came to see where it was going and we just hopped on.  Then we discovered it was stopping at Epcot and Animal Kingdom,oops!  It worked out just fine but the kids were a little disappointed that we weren't going to see the O's.

I think they would have stayed in this area all day!  This screen went back and forth between leaves that you could "push" away and fish that were swimming around.

We waited in line to do this space ride but JP opted out at the last minute but to our surprise at the exit there was this fun play area with all kinds of stuff to climb on and video games.  This was another area that the kids were in no hurry to leave.

Waiting in line to meet some characters.  This was our first time meeting any characters.  JP did a few more but ended up just having his sister get his book signed for him :).  We had to wait 30 min in this line but was so worth it.  Kdub loved it.

Finding Nemo ride & a show with Crush the turtle.  (I am not sure if mom or the kids liked it best)

All smiles after a turn on Test Track. 

Time to recharge with a Mickey Treat

Who knew the kids were strong enough to hold up that ball!

After a fun day at Epcot we caught the monorail over to Magic Kingdom so we could see the Electric Parade and fireworks show.

This was an hour before the parade started.  By the time it started there wasn't room to wiggle! So glad we got there early.
