Fireworks at Disney




Disney has fireworks daily at their theme parks, and we got to watch a beautiful presentation of them one evening while there. If you look closely at these pictures, you can see Cinderella's castle in the background behind the fireworks. Our trip to Disney was amazing and truly magical! It was exhausting too, but very much worth it! Hopefully, there will be a trip back in the future!

Disney Junior Live





Two of Reagan and Hudson's favorite shows to watch on TV are "Mickey Mouse Clubhouse" and "Jake and the Neverland Pirates." Both of these are on the Disney Junior channel. We were lucky enough to see a live production that included both of these shows. Reagan was spellbound....

Cars


Lightening McQueen and Mater were hanging out in Hollywood Studios too!

Toy Story




We also got to see Buzz Lightyear and Woody from Toy Story!

Riding the Bus!



Part of being at Disney World was riding the different modes of transportation to and from the theme parks. The kids, especially Hudson, loved the bus. Of course, to help pass the time, they always seemed to want to play some games on our phones!

Disney's Electrical Parade


















After we ate at Chef Mickey's, we went back to Magic Kingdom in time to see the night time Electrical Parade. It is absolutely amazing and beautiful! All of the floats and performers are lighted! Tinkerbell, Goofy, Minnie, Cinderella, and Captain Hook were all in attendance!

Chef Mickey's

















One of the best things during our visit to Disney, was eating at Chef Mickey's and hanging out with Mickey and the gang. This included Donald Duck, Minnie Mouse, Pluto, Goofy and Mickey! As we ate, these characters made the rounds for plenty of hugs, laughs, and picture time! Reagan and Hudson adored them all! Hudson tried pulling off Minnie's nose, and then tried feeding Mickey some ice cream, but both Reagan and Hudson gave Mickey a kiss!
