Disney World Surprise!

















What a wonderful week and the Happiest Place on Earth!!!!  We surprised the girls with a trip to Disney World.  They knew we were pulling them out of school early to go to Florida, but they thought we were just going to Miami to visit Kylie and Alaina.  They had no clue we were going to Orlando to do Disney.  Ryan and Emma did ask why we were flying into Orlando instead of Miami and we just told them it was because it was a cheaper flight.  They bought it!  Poor Ryan even made the comment at the airport about how unfair it was that everyone else flying to Orlando was getting to go to Disney.  LOL
What an awesome surprise it was at the airport when Alaina and Kylie arrived and we got to surprise them with the news!  The video is priceless, I will never forget their expressions! It was a wonderful week.  We stayed at the Hilton Grand Vacation in a two bedroom suite that had 2 kitchens and a living room.  It was HUGE!  We did a day at Magical Kingdom, a day at Hollywood Studios and a day at Universal.  We broke it up with a pool day in between.  It was the perfect trip.  Since Alaina and Kylie were with us we got to take advantage of both their fast pass and Kylie's disability pass.  Basically, we never had to wait in line. It was unreal.  Our girls are so spoiled now, I am not sure we can ever do Disney again without them.  Polly was a total trooper and lasted all day at the parks, she did catch a couple 10 min stroller naps, but overall she hung with the big kids.  The girls did all kinds of rides.  The Rockin' Roller Coaster (which goes upside down), Hollywood Tower of Terror, Space Mountain, Harry Potter roller coaster, The Hulk roller coaster and Toy Story Slinky Dog were a few of the favorites.  We did it all!  It was a trip of a lifetime that we will never forget!
