Disney Adventures

We got back from a mini vacation on Sunday. Marc and his father had their conference near Disney this year so it turned into a family trip. Both Marc and I had been to Disney as kids so it had been a while. But I was hoping to create for Lucas the same kind of magic that my parents did when I was 11. I know that he will probably not remember most of the trip but I always will. I had my list of things that I wanted to do with him and at the top was see the 3pm parade down Main Street. I remember sitting near Cindarella's Castle watching it with my family. It was amazing. I staked out two spots right on Main Street in front of the Emporium. And as the parade started, I was almost in tears experiencing it through Lucas' eyes. I think he was in complete awe of the characters-all he did was stare at them. I was able to coach him into waving at a good number and he even got a high 5's from some of them.

The other thing we needed to do was get him a pair of Mouse Ears. How can you not go to Disney and get a pair? I was so excited to give them to him. I placed my order before the parade and when it was over we picked them up. Once again, I was close to tears when he put the hat on for the first time. And the best part was that when he got his picture with Mickey and Minnie, he had them on!

I will post pictures and write more after Thanksgiving!
