Florida: MICKEY Ice Cream

Boyd and I wanted Mickey Mouse ice cream so bad!
So we bought one to share. 
Totally worth the $3.50
Of course I took a picture.



Florida: Hollywood Studios - Beauty and the Beast

 This picture totally describes our whole trip. Boyd played 20 questions with Micah and Zoe pretty much the whole time. That is what they are doing here. The game went a little like this "Is it pink? Yes, Is it a pig? Yes! Is is pink? Yes, Is it a flamingo? Yes! Is it black and white? Yes, Is it a penguin? YES! Is it brown? Yes, is it a brown bear? Yes! Is it black? Yes, is it a black bear? Yes! So on and so forth, but the ones I named were pretty much the only animals we covered. It was pretty funny!

 While we were waiting for Beauty and the Beast to start we took pictures, again.



 I absolutely Loved Gaston! He was hilarious!!!!

 We had awesome seats, like in the 4th row.



 Brooke loved Beauty and the Beast. Especially the Beast! She was glued!  She flipped out and was screaming/laughing/jumping up and down when she was watching because she liked it so much.

Florida: Hollywood Studios- The HIGHLIGHT of our trip

 Boyd and I LOVE Phineas and Ferb! I got so excited when I saw them. I was totally like a little kid and was beaming! Seriously, this was the BEST!





 

 Ducky MoMo for real! haha

Florida: Hollywood Studios Part 2

 Zoe loved getting her autographs. Especially by "green army man"

 Jake the pirate? No clue who he was but the live show we went to was pretty sweet!


Florida: Hollywood Studios Part 1

 Micah took this picture! Pretty good huh!

 
Poor Dave. I made him take like 50 pictures of us. I always tell him waist up.


 This picture cracks me up. It's such a nice picture, oh wait, where is Eli?


BEST RIDE EVER!!!!!
 Do you like how we each have a camera in our hands, just waiting to take the picture.

Star Tours! SO COOL!
 Micah was hilarious! He totally was sucked into the ride. He kept saying "remember that real ship we rode on!" 
I totally got sick. Every time we went into "hyper space" or whatever I had to close my eyes

 This is proof that they still have red and blue glasses.

For lunch we ate at PIZZA PLANET! From Toy Story! How cool is that. (p.s the pizza wasn't that great) The salad was delicious! I'm kinda disappointed in the lack of theme. I was expecting to walk into the restaurant and have the whole thing be themed, but the only thing they had were the aliens hanging from the ceiling. 


 After lunch we saw this TOTALLY AWESOME AMAZING JAW DROPPING car show. It was disgustingly cool! They had these stunt cars that did all these tricks and mid show they had Lightning McQueen! It was fantastic! My mouth was literally open in awe the whole time!

On the drive back Micah totally fell asleep. Boyd played puppeteer with his arms and he still wouldn't wake up. So I started flashing him with my camera (What a good aunt I am) He loved it and kept pretending so I would take more pictures of him. Funny Kid. 



Mickey power lines: Sweet

Florida: Part 4- MEAT

 Boyd has always dreamed of getting a meat stick (I have no better words for it).
He said it is like being in a cartoon.
His dream came true! 
That thing was HUGE! And quite delicious!


 Micah and Eli totally wanted in on this Manly meat business! 
They snuck in a few bites when Boyd took Zoe to the bathroom. 
 Seriously the thing was as big as his face
 Who took that giant bite?

Florida: Magic Kingdom Part 3

Zoe was SOOO excited to meet the characters and get their signatures. 

 Pirate GOOFY! 
 He was So funny!

 I LOVED Tiana. She was seriously so nice. 
When Zoe and Micah were walking away she asked Micah to give her a little sugar on the cheek. I'm sad I couldn't whip my camera out fast enough. It was HILARIOUS! He totally kissed her and then turned red and ran away.
 Fast pass to see Mickey? Yes please!



 After the long long long day, the fireworks, and everything else Micah totally fell asleep while we were waiting to see the princesses. I don't blame him, it was like 10:45 p.m.
I was outraged they made people wait that long. We waited until the very end of the day to see them, hoping the line would be shorter. Plus we really didn't figure out where they were until mid day but the wait was over an hour. So while Micah, Eli, Boyd, and I were watching the fireworks Dave and Amber took Zoe to see the princesses. The fireworks ended and we walked into the place where the princesses would be. The sign said it was a 10 minute wait, mind you. We found our crew sitting there, STILL waiting! They had been there for over 40 minutes. We heard the ushers talking and saying something about how the princesses weren't even there! The workers were joking with some of the kids saying that sleeping beauty must have fallen asleep or something. They were being stupid (yes I said it STUPID) and wouldn't tell us how much longer we had to wait. Everybody in line started grumbling and we found out that the family in front of us had already been there for over an hour! About 20 minutes later we were ushered in to see the princesses. UGGG! Poor Micah.


 Boyd said that he figures on of the princesses must have gotten sick. He said he thought it was Belle because she was so didn't look anything like Belle. This is his train of thought: the real Belle must have gotten sick. So they grabbed some random girl that sort of looked like Bell and slapped a dress on her and told her to pretend to be a princess. That is why we had to wait so freakin' long.


 Cinderella was SO nice! The other ones, meh. But she totally made it worth the wait!




 Late night dance party with Chip N' Dale: SO MUCH FUN!


 Seriously, how cute is this!
 So, while we were waiting to see Woody and Jessie, Zoe could hear the people screaming on Splash Mountain and it totally freaked her out. We told her we were going to go on the ride and that she should come. She was terrified, cried, and kept saying NO! (I would be freaked out too if I heard screaming like that) So I bribed her, I told her I would buy her the picture if she went on it with me. Just like that, with a smile on her face, she agreed. While we were on the ride I would warn her before a drop. The first drop I said "Zoe, we are going to go down a drop" then we did. I looked at her to check to see if she was crying and turned to see a HUGE smile. "THAT WAS SO AWESOME!!!" she kept saying. Needless to say she had a blast on the ride. (I'm sad I don't have the picture, Dave and Boyd were in front of us and you couldn't see us at all). Micah, on the other hand, doubled over the entire ride, clinging onto the lap bar for dear life. Maybe next time Micah.
