A Snowy Weekend

Rob & Susan decided to try our snow shoe gear out and of course Bear had to go along. This is the drift along the side of the house by the kitchen.

Stopping to pose for me to take a pic.....of course! : }

They snow shoed out on the golf course behind our home. It really was pretty and lots of fun watching Bear run all over the place. He's about 6 years old now.

Playing in the snow!

Magic Kingdom 2/10

This was on our way back to the condo after our 1st day at Magic Kgdm. Tomorrow Land...we rode the train throughout this area [nice, smooth and slow ride]

One tired puppy : }

Riding the train for 20 minutes to take a break from all the hub-bub.

We got to meet Mickey & Minnie. A lot bigger than I think the kids were expecting. They were all a little timid : }

Momma Tara LOVED it!!!

Micky Mouses messy kitchen [just like a mouse-man]

Outside Mickey's home

In front of Minnie's home.....it was sooooo cute and girly!

Entrance to Toon Town which is where all the kids had the most fun [due to their ages].

Papa and Will riding Dumbo's ride. Papa was having sooo much fun : }

The callosal merry-go-round. They rode this a few times.

Felt like we were in Sweden.

OK, the following pics are inside It's a Small World. The kids were mesmerized and just stared not saying a word. There was SOOOOO much to see. We sat in a boat that slowly went around to all the different places of the world while you listen to the song "It's a Small World After All" over and over and over again.

This was the line we stood in to get into "It's a Small World" ride.

Lunch time! Each day we brought our lunch from home and found a place to sit and enjoy the people-watching while we ate.

Riding Aladan's magic carpets

This is inside the Swiss Family Robinson's tree house

I couldn't resist taking this picture of all the gorgeous flowers. Made me wish Spring would hurry up!

Main Street USA

This is about 9a.m. waiting on the ferry to take us to Magic Kgdm. Noni had her latte' : }

This is the entrance from the parking lot before you get to the ticket stands. Quite a long way from your car to the actual entrance to the park itself.

Noni & Papa sitting in the very back seat of the van on our way to the Magic Kgdm. Very excited!

Magic Kingdom 2/10

We celebrated Emma's 3rd birthday since we were together. I ordered her an ice cream cake and it was really "YUMMY" Noey watching as Emma opens one of her presents which was a bag of books from Uncle Adam & Aunt Lynn.

Emma looking at the special Ballerina book from Noni & Papa.

Singing Happy Birthday To You, then Emma Mae blowing out her candles! Fun : }

What a pretty cake it was....decorated in purple, pink and yellow and made up of marble cake with Orea cookie ice cream.

Our 3 little munchkins : }

A tender moment between dad and son

Riding Peter Pan's boat. Some of the rides like Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs were actually scarry for the kids and they hid their eyes.

This is in front of Mickey Mouses house.

Coming out of Minnie Mouses backyard.

Emma sitting in Minnie's chair in her garden room.

Sitting on the hearth in Minnie Mouses living room

Standing in line for the roller coaster in ToonTown. It took 45 minutes in line for a 48 second ride, but I'm told it was well worth it. This was the kids 1st roller coaster ride EVER.

Coming out of the Carribean Pirates boat ride. One of the boats was named "Congo Connie" : }

Coming out of the ride in "It's a Small World". We went through this twice and each time saw something new. Major eye stimulation!

Cinderella's castle.....OHHHHHHH!

Trying to decide what to do next and which way to go. BIG Decisions there was so much to do....really!

Characters like this were all over the place.
