 Yesterday we traveled home. Mom, Dad and Drew left at 3:00am and our flight was scheduled to leave at 10:00am. Thankfully, Damon was willing to take us to the airport. We made it to the airport in decent time, but when we arrived we were met with a huge line of people trying to leave like we were. We waited in a very long line and when we got to the front we realized it was the line for the kiosks--and we couldn't check in with a kiosk because Rocky is a lap child so we had to go to another very long line for full service.  Luckily we made it through by 8:50 and headed to security....another long line. Once we made it through we took the tram to our terminal. We arrived at our gate about 9:15. 

The boys didn't eat much so I decided to run to McDonalds quick. There were lines, of course, but they were moving quick. When I got a few people away from the register the cashier's register started acting up.  After waiting 5 minutes they got it working. Once I got up there it started acting up again.  The debit card machine was showing the wrong price and I wasn't working. Long story short, we got our breakfast for free!

I got back to the boys just in time to start boarding. Once again we made our way all the way to the back and took our seats. Rocky did much better this ride!! Still wasn't perfect, but we survived by playing with stickers and watching videos of himself. 

We made it to Kansas City in great time and were able to get our bags with ease. We called our parking shuttle and made it quickly back to the parking garage where we got the van. We selected covered parking so we didn't have to clear off our vehicle at all! I would highly recommend The Parking Spot. It was so easy and they were so friendly.  

After a quick stop for lunch we were on our way back to Osceola.  It was an amazing trip.  We had so much fun and will be talking about this trip for a long time! 

(Rocky was a little too cuddly for Teddy on the flight--thank goodness this was as we were unloading the plane!)

(Both boys were so excited to see Penny!)

 Happy New Year! We celebrated by going to Magic Kingdom today! As we did with Hollywood Studios, we thought it would be a good idea to get to the park before it opened so we planned on leaving the condo an hour before park opening time.  We made our way to parking and then took the monorail to the park.  It was getting busy already! Teddy and Rocky seemed to like the monorail. Thom called it the magic train in the sky so Teddy thought that was pretty fun.   When we made it to the park we saw our first characters! The train depot ride is getting redone but they had Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Pluto and Daisy up there waving as people came in! They did so great pointing at people and waving. Teddy and Rocky got Mickey to wave at them. We then made our way to the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train because we knew that line would get long throughout the day.  By the time we got there at 7:45 (park officially opened at 8:00) the wait was already 90 minutes. So we headed over to Space Mountain which we th

 Today we flew! We left home at 7:24am to head to Kansas City.  After stopping for some McDonald's breakfast burritos we were on our way! The boys did great on the car ride down.  I had reserved parking at the airport so it was very easy to drop off our vehicle, get on the shuttle and head to the airport.  Due to Rocky being a lap child we had to wait in the standard line and not use the express check-in.  It took about 20 minutes, which won't be anything in terms of the lines we'll be waiting in at Disney! After checking our perfect 50.0 pound bag (4 people-1 bag- 8 days!) we were on our way to security.  The wait for the security was quick and the boys did great going through.  We got stopped with the diaper bag because the wipes looked suspicious under the x-ray.   We were scheduled to go out of gate 39 but two gates down, 37 was empty. We found a little spot with no one around and made ourselves at home.  Our flight was delayed an hour so when the little mexican restaur
