Last Day

-
Saturday was our last day in the park.  I felt a little sad on the way in. The sadness quickly dissipated when I realized how crowded it was.  I don't know if I have ever seen crowds like this.  Despite the crowds, we rode 11 rides.  I couldn't believe it. 


Our "meeting" place.  This place has great bathrooms.  We always seemed to start and end our day at City Hall. 





Our first stop was Mickey's PhilharMagic.  It is the best show! All the boys loved it. Then we went to use our Fast Passes at Pooh Bear. 




Mom excels at "photo bombing." 



Then we made our way over to the circus area to ride Dumbo. 








Then it was off to lunch at "Be out Guest."  This restaurant is in the Beauty and the Beast section.  We made a quick stop at the Gaston statue.

Waiting in line at the restaurant.


We sat in the ballroom.  But we went to look at the drawing room and the West Wing. 



The "Gray Stuff" cupcake.  So good.








Next we rode the "Little Mermaid."  It got stuck for a few minute under the eels.  Sam was a little nervous. 








Impromptu, "I love you mom" moment.


We rode the Seven Dwarves Mine Train again.  We used Fast Passes. The line was almost 2 hours long for standby. 




PhilharMagic for the second time. 




Pirates of the Caribbean. 





Space Mountain.  Finn loved it this time.  Michael stayed with Cooper, Hank, Quinn and Sam.


We finished the day with Peter Pan and Small World. 





Our "exit" picture.  I admittedly cried. It was such a great trip. 

Later that evening Me, Michael, Emily and Zac went back to Magic Kingdom.  We watched "Wishes" again.  Then we walked around some of the shops.  About the time we were set to go, the "Once Upon a Time" show started.  It was so good!





They begged to have this picture taken.  It was quite embarrassing.

Today we woke up at 6:30 to prepare for our big day at Universal Studios Islands of Adventure. The shuttle from the hotel left for the park at 8:00 meaning that we had to be downstairs and ready to go at 7:45. At 7:30 we realized that we had to book our spot on the shuttle the night before. Oops. For two people with jobs requiring close attention to detail we completely fall apart in our personal life. Fortunately we were able to purchase a ticket and catch the 8:00 shuttle anyway. The shuttle ride was interesting; we ended up sitting behind a young couple that could have left about 90% of their PDA in their hotel room and it still would have been too much for my taste. When we got to the park we noticed our ticket required that we show I.D. Well, I didn't bring my purse with me. Oops. After reading and rereading the fine print, we lawyerly types figured out an interpretation that would allow me to get into the park without producing photo i.d. We geared up for the fight

Wednesday night I got a strange phone call from Michael; he asked if I could get an ice pack and a couple ibuprofen ready for him.  Check it out . . .   He went to the doctor Thursday morning and came home with a boot, a pressure sock and a pair of crutches.  Looks like he will be out of commission for approximately two months.

On Sunday morning we slept until 9:30!  Finn was up with the sun, of course, but Sam slept until a little after 9:00. When we got up the sun was shining so we decided to hang the boys gourd bird house from Mr. Gene.  So far we have really enjoyed going to church on Sunday night.  Finn specifically told me that he likes night church better because he can get up and play.  The boys had a pajama party at school today.  It was in honor of Ms. Jenn's last day before maternity leave.  Finn was very excited to show his friends his godzilla feet. Big morning for Finn.  Last night was the first night that we have not put a nighttime pull-up on Finn.  He woke up with a dry bed!
