On the drive down, I had this fabulous idea to pack a lunch - have a picnic - and some outside time in the middle of our long day of driving. This was a great idea minus all the technology that we had to have during the picnic. (exhibit A - the iphone in Mary Margo's hand) I made flower crowns while Dusty had his face buried in the Ipad and Mary Margo was consumed with wanting the Iphone but not being able to see it in the sunlight.
Needless to say, things aren't what they uses to be....picking flowers at the rest stop is just not exciting.

Our first day
EPCOT |
Our very first ride was "the land" (you know the grandma ride, the one the green thumb gardners like) Mary Margo started crying because she was scared of the dark. Made this Momma a little nervous. If she is afraid here, we have a VERY LONG week ahead of us. Not to worry by the end of the day we got her on the Test Track ride. She didn't like it and whined the whole ride saying "WHAT ARE WE DOING". By the last night at Disney she was back on this ride like a big girl.

 |
MY MOST FAVORITE PART OF THE WHOLE TRIP!
I love the parade. |
Best line from Mary Margo.
When she saw tinkerbell in the parade, she said
"there's tinkerbell. I bet she still remembers my name."
She said is again when Cinderella went by.

The fam early in morn before the park opens.

Cinderella telling Mary Margo something about the blue birds and making her hair smell good.
Who knows what she said but it has worked like a charm every time I wash her hair.
Thank you Cinderella! |

What an awesome time we had. Mary Margo can not wait to go again and "show Dottie". We have been back for a few weeks now and she ask me almost daily when we are going back. One day I told her we would go back when Dottie could use the potty.
Her response, "Awe Man, that's going to be a LONG time."
