Who's The Leader of the Club that's Made for You and Me....M-I-C-K-E-Y- M-O-U-S-E-

Well, we are home and nothing less than a wonderful time was to be had!!! Like Disney says, "It was Magical!" The plane ride there was very pleasant and smooth, the boys were wonderful! So excited to see The Magical Express waiting on us at the airport to take us to our weeks long destination of fun and excitement! Who wouldn't be pumped up after getting off a plane and having Mickey send a driver to pick us up along with all the other families going to Disney resorts! Doesn't get any better than that! The boys were filled with excitement as you can only imagine. Once we got checked in and got our Magic bands working Grandpa and Grandma and Sarah and Justin came over to Boardwalk Villa's where we were staying to have dinner on Boardwalk with us, how exciting!! We had pizza and then headed over to' Beaches and Cream' for Ice Cream!!! While on our way over, we stopped along the 'Beach Club' Disney resort and the boys roasted marshmallows!! Yummy yum! Mickey knows how to start our week off to a great beginning! Rogan was also chosen to be a part of a very fun magic show! After eating ice-cream, we went to the bridge leading to Epcot and sat along it because the fireworks were about to begin!! Ahhh and OHHH! Beautiful and what a treat to start off every one's vacation!

Our first day there we went to Holly Wood Studios for Star Wars Weekend!! Wow!! So Cool! So glad we just happen to be at Disney during this very special time! We saw Wookies and had lunch with Darth Vader and Storm Troopers to name a few! Rogan was able to ride The Tower of Terror for his very first time! He was so excited after hearing about it for years and years from Big Brother Grayson! Well, Rogan loved it! He went on it 4 more times! Brave one he is! We also saw Fantasmic!!! Oh it was just awesome, nothing short of amazing and beautiful!!!!! What a great day! It is a must on places and things to see while at The Studios!

Following our day at The Studios, was a nice relaxing day in the sun around the pool with the huge clown head and his mouth was the open end of the water slide! Fun stuff!!! Tuesday we went to, wait for it...."Magic Kingdom"!!!!' Where dreams really do come true'!!! How lucky we all were to get to spend such an awesome day together riding almost every thing as a family and I mean entire family! Grandpa, Grandma and Sarah and Justin!!! What fun we all had! Wow!! We had lunch at The Crystal Palace with Winnie the Pooh and all his friends!! Lunch was yummy and the boys loved all their one on one with Pooh and Tiger and Eore, and Piglet getting pictures taken with them and having them sign their autograph books! We rode "It's a Small World', 'Pirates of the Caribbean', 'Space Mountain' another first for Rogan and he laughed his was through the speed of light adventure! I was just happy to be off the ride! We were lucky to ride everything on our list and most through our fast past with our Magic Bands!  Later toward evening, the rain came and it never stopped from that point on! We figured we'd had a very Magical Day and made every magical memory on every ride we had wished for!

Wednesday, we relaxed from our busy, busy, fun Disney Day and played at the pool again and then had dinner at the Dinosphere Restaurant!! What a super cool place we love to go to each time we come!! The dinos are all animated and each room is a different scene where everything comes to life!!!While we were gone, Mickey came by our room and dropped off balloons and cards for both my birthday and Marc's! I got to spend my 41st birthday at Disney! Every Disney lovers Dream!!! That Mickey! Thursday, we decided to venture over to Animal Kingdom! Its such a beautiful park! Love 'The Tree of Life'! We went on a jungle cruise and saw all kinds of animals, silver back apes and giraffes and elephants just to name a few.

Friday, we went to Epcot! I love Epcot too! It has such neat scenery and I love traveling around the world per say! Lots of great food and the boys got to see many, many characters and do some pin exchanging! They love all their Disney pins! I was happy to be spending my birthday at Epcot. That morning, we started to go back to Magic Kingdom and as we were waiting for the Disney bus to arrive, we just changed our minds and walked over to Epcot since it sets close to Boardwalk resort where we stayed. It's so nice when you're  staying on property and you can change your mind like that and it's a short walk away.

As our week was coming closer to the end, I could feel what I call "The Mickey Blues' closing in on me!!! Even Marc started getting Mickey Blues! We loved all our walks around board walk and our fun family times and getting to spend such great times with Grandpa and Grandma and Sarah and Justin! The boys certainly loved spending time with Sarah and Justin. We were sad when everyone left to head over to Vero Beach. Marc watched Tangled out under the stars on Friday night! Out side at Luna Pool right under our balcony, they showed nightly Disney Movies beginning at 9:00! The rest of us were too wore out from Epcot earlier. Luckily we were so close to everything, we could see the fireworks from our balcony coming from The Studios! They were huge, loud and the best ever!!! How excited we were to see them again not from being at the park this time but standing on our balcony!

Saturday, we went back to Magic Kingdom and almost walked onto a lot of rides! I guess Saturdays are one of their least busiest days (early in the morning) because everyone is traveling that day! Who knew! We never went on Saturdays for fear of the very opposite!  We are lucky and feel very blessed to be able to go to Disneyas many times as we have! We all certainly love Disney and are huge Mickey fans...it runs in our family! We have made so many wonderful, wonderful memories that just keep getting better! Just when I think,"'Oh' this was the best trip ever!" Well, the next time we come, it seems to be even better than the last! I don't know how they do it, Mickey and all his Magic but it's true, they make it like no other place...Magical!!!! We are home and happy to be back but not going to lie...We all had "The Mickey Blues"!!! Until next time! We will be back, back soon I hope! Rogan asked after we tucked him in that very first night, "Mommy, how many more days until we come back to Disney again?" And there you have it! Mickey will always hold a very special place in all our hearts and it's true.... he is Magical!!!
