We....
HAPPY 4TH BIRTHDAY....
Addie turned 4 on New Year's Eve....the park was at full capacity so we couldn't leave and risk not getting back in. We celebrated with dinner and cake at the Main Street Bakery. This child really is an ANGEL.
Main Street Parade....
As you can see Addie really enjoyed the parades....dancing to the music & waving to all the characters.
Pooh Bear & Dumbo....

EPCOT....
DINOSAUR....
Expedition Everest....
When we were at Animal Kingdom in '05 this coaster was being built. Well worth the wait....when you get to the top the tracks are broken, you have to go backwards for about 12 seconds to get to another track. :-)
Safari 2....
The baby giraffe and baby elephant were adorable. We were thankful the big kitties were napping or wanting alone time.
Safari....
After we grabbed a danish & coffee for breakfast, we headed for the Kilimanjaro Safari. The pics speak for themselves.

HARRY POTTER....
was off the chain. As soon as the park opened you had to wait in line for stand-by tickets just to enter the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. You could only go in during the time on your ticket and once you left, you could not reenter. It was by far my favorite ride. I've never seen the movie or read the books but this ride was awesome. I even tried butterbeer, butterscotch & root beer....yummy.
Of course, The Incredible Hulk coaster rocked and I couldn't help but take a pic of some of my favorite childhood sites, Spike's doghouse and Olive Oil's cry for help.

We're here....
We made it to our condo this afternoon & you can see the first thing on the kids agenda. It was freezing....the pool was heated and all 3 of them had to hit hot showers as soon as they got out.
In memory of....

C'mas Day @ Aunt Sue's....
Gabi woke us up at 4:15 this morning to let us know Santa had been to our house. We managed to keep our eyes open long enough to see what the girls got then went back to bed for a bit.
We later headed to Aunt Sue's for Christmas dinner. I think everyone ate way too much, but it was awesome.

Christmas Eve @ Jenn's....
We always go to Jenn's on Christmas Eve for our family get together. And of course, the more comfortable the better so PJ's were in order. Mom ordered an Edible Arrangement for the kids & Jenn melted chocolate to dip it in. The kids had a really good evening & even Uncle Howie had a blast playing with Julien's helicopter.
