While Julie was in Afghanistan she made Chief! Yes; I know; she is awesome. While she was stationed for so long; and going through the process; she decided she needed something to look forward to. Thus the trip to DisneyWorld was born. My mom; Julie; and I took off for five fabulous kid free days in Orlando.
We flew out of Phoenix after Thanksgiving and left the boys home with Loren. We chose to stay in a Disney hotel and do the meal plan--which was fabulous. We had great meals at grown up restaurants and didn't have to break down a stroller once. We got to sleep in and leisurely stroll. The kind people at Disney also heard about Julie's service and gave us tickets to Cirque Du Soleil.
I love my girls! It was so fun to hang out with my favorite women ever. We actually didn't spend much time in Disney World; preferring to go to Epcot and the Animal Kingdom.
The Finding Nemo show was amazing. The costumes were just unreal. I wasn't really looking forward to the Animal Kingdom; and just went because my Mom wanted to go. But it ended up being great fun. The safari was interesting and the shows were fabulous.
My Mom liked the Lion King show the best; it was also very entertaining. We brought home a little Mickey for McKay; it has surpassed brown bear as his new lovey. It was hard to come back to reality but I sure did miss my boys!

Wait! What did you think of Cirque Du Soleil? I've always half wanted to go to one of their shows / half assumed I wouldn't like it. Your review?
