Disney World

Being the spontaneous couple that we are, Jeremy and I woke up last Sunday morning and decided that since we both had the next four days off of work, that we would go on a little road trip to the sunshine state. We have been talking about taking a vacation for quite a while but our schedules just never seemed to coordinate. Although it was a last minute thing, it was a perfect time for Jeremy and I to get away and take a vacation. So, we quickly made hotel reservations, packed up our things and hit the road. I have to say that it was very nice to be able to leave Louisiana for a few days. The feeling in the air was definitely different with each state we crossed, other then Mississippi. Needless to say it was hard to come back.




Here we are like two kids on Christmas morning as we head out on our adventure to Disney World.




Here are a couple of pictures of the resort where we stayed. Isn't it magical! Just Kidding! We didn't really stay here, we stayed at the holiday inn, but we did have a pretty sweet pool and hot tub at our hotel.

Our first day we decided that we would relive our childhood and go to Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World. It definitely brought back memories to go on all of the different rides that we did when we were kids. The best part about it was that we barely even had to wait in any lines. They had the fast pass option for several of our favorite rides, but the regular lines were so short that we didn't even bother fast passing. With school still in session and pretty decent weather, (not to hot or humid) we definitely picked a perfect time to head to the happiest place on earth.

This is me standing in front of Cinderella's castle.


Gotta love those Mickey ears.

They had a place where girls could go to get transformed into a princess...dress, makeup, hair and all! Unfortunately their was an age limit, so my princess transformation was limited to only this crown. Oh well, works for me!

Me enjoying a lick of a lolly.

Just a random photo of us to end our day at Magic Kingdom. We decided that the highlight of our day was Space Mountain. This ride is even more rockin than we remembered. Jeremy was even lucky enough to score the front row seat! Even though I loved it as a kid, the only ride we could have done without was It's a Small World. That song just kept playing over and over and over...it was brutal! Other then that we had a great time!

Brooke, this looks like so much fun!!! I swear, your never too old to enjoy Disney World. Matt and I actually went to Disneyland on our honeymoon.

I can't believe you guys touched the alligators and *gasp* the snakes! I think I would have had a heart attack. Those things are number 1 on my fear list.
