Disney Day 3

Day three had some bumps in the road at the beginning of the day but by the end of the day it was maybe one of my favorite days there.  Shawn started the day at the conference and we went into the park to meet up with Sandra and Phillip.  Devin wasn't too thrilled that he couldn't go on whatever ride he wanted but I reminded him that Shawn would be with us later and that seemed to keep him happy.  We tried going on a few rides by ourselves and I thought it would be lots of fun and it would have been if Devin wouldn't have thrown a huge fit because he had to sit by Caroline.  I was trying to be patient with him but on the second ride when I had to physically put him in the ride and push the bar down to keep him from moving I was done.  We then split up and Sandra and Phillip were saints and took the boys while I took Caroline and Maya to see Rapunzel.  Thankfully Shawn left the conference early and met up with us not long after.  I was so happy to see him I almost cried.  I can't explain how much better our vacation was when Shawn was with us.  The kids were a little more than I could handle on my own at times.  He was constantly cheery and optimistic.  Anyways once we met up with Shawn we hung out with Sandra and Phillip some more then said goodbye to them and headed over to Hollywood Studios for some low key fun.  We started off at the Tower of Terror which was really fun but I held onto Graham's shirt the entire time because I was sure he was going to fly out of his seat.  We took more time walking around finding things to do.  Caroline, Graham, and I watched a short play of Beauty and the Beast play while Shawn and Devin went on a real roller coaster that does flips and  everything.  We later went back to the hotel and ordered dinner from Chili's.  Not fancy but after walking around Disney World and days eating trail mix and beef jerky, Chili's was one of the best dinners I've had in a while.  Enough talk, onto pictures.

Waiting in line for the carousel. 

Devin was only willing to ride this as long as we found a boyish horse.

And Devin on his very masculine horse. 

Caroline and Maya waiting to see Rapunzel and Snow White.  These girls are so cute!

Caroline was very shy and refused to tell her she was Caroline's favorite.


And Snow White, I kind of felt bad for Snow White because come on I don't think kids like her nearly as much as Rapunzel.

I was so tired from walking around so while Shawn took the big kids on Space Mountain Graham and I went on the People Mover.  Sounds lame and little it is but it was really nice to sit down.

Sweet baby Castle. I never heard this kid cry, he was so laid back.  He wasn't too pleased I was watching him while his mom and dad went on a ride.

We actually got a group picture!

Watching a Muppets show together.

Come on, how cute is that?

The kids were so tired and ready to go back to the hotel.  We were smart enough to take a boat straight back to hotel that night.


I'm not sure what the kids are doing here.  Shawn took this one.  Yet another awesome day at Disney.
