Disney World

Last week we experienced an amazing time in our life. It was our first time visiting Disney World. The boys were so excited, but had no idea how much fun they would really have. They understood they would meet Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy, Pluto, Woody among other Disney characters but never really thought how much they would love it. We headed to Florida on Sunday and made it safely to a nice rental home where all our family would stay. This was a Hopper/ Lancaster family vacation, unfortunately Matthew, Cacey and the kiddies couldn't be there. We sure did miss them, but thankfully we know that we will see them very soon and have vacations with them. It was so much fun to be around family all week. We played in the swimming pool, had dinners together and had the best times at the park. Here are 100+ pictures of our wonderful adventure. I had to leave some out since we took over 600.

 Packed and ready to go!

Here we are at the rental home. The boys saying a blessing.
