This week is Evie's spring break. We've been celebrating by sleeping late, having play dates, watching movies late at night, and yesterday we took a day trip to Orlando to go to Disney's Animal Kingdom. As an added treat, Aunt Kelly and cousins Owen and baby Knox joined us! The weather was beautiful and all the kiddos were sweet. We all went on "safari", watched a show (Nemo), let the kids run free on the playgrounds, and the grown-ups took turns riding roller coasters. It was a perfect day!
Evie wore her Minnie ears for nearly 2 days straight!
Annie rode her first roller coaster. She didn't like it. Here we are afterwards - so triumphant ;)
And here is Annie on the train - much more her speed! "Cheese"!
We started out with an Anabelle favorite - the "Memo" ride
And then we were off "globe trotting" and meeting more characters
Alice was sweet, and Evie introduced her to her new friend Lola from the "UK"
The girls sported chocolate mousse goatees in "France"
And Evie stared in a show in "Italy"
And Annie, after ruining her leggings and chucking her hair bow...
... formed a little crush on a "Mexican" Donald Duck. Sweet Silly Girl :)
The hubs finally offered to take a few photos of me on the last day ;)
So, here I am with my little ladies!
We met this cute little Viking girl that looked just like Evie!
Here she is with her lovely older sister (JK - it's actually William - fooled you!)
We celebrated Maisie's 4th birthday with a princess lunch at Akershus Royal Banquet Hall in Norway. It was so hilariously sweet that it deserves a slide show - COMING SOON!
Anabelle and I (just plum wore out) split off from the group to "globe trot" for the afternoon. We leisurely strolled through the World Showcase (here she is in Morocco), it was a PERFECT afternoon with my little girl. She fell in love with a little Steiff piggy ("Peepee") in Germany, and I simply couldn't resist buying it because I was missing Reed!
Finally, we finished off the day (and the trip) with a "bath" ;)
Look at their faces - ha! I can only imagine that this must be a really serious conversation about Ariel and/or Belle - pretty much all they talk about. 
This little rascal stole my popcorn, but I love him and he's cute, so I just gave him the whole darn bucket!
Meanwhile, my little one was busy swiping my Aunt Julie's snacks!
On Daddy's shoulders again!
Annie with Pappy - this little girl loves her mans!
We took an afternoon "break" to swim at the resort (We stayed at Disney's Caribbean Beach and they had the greatest kiddie pool!)
This little chickie could not get enough of that stinkin' pool - wild girl!
On the "Kickey bus" (Mickey bus) going back to Magic Kingdom for the evening
What way too much fun can do to the best of us!!! 
Annie on Ben's shoulder's in "Africa"
Bless it! But what is a day in the parks without a meltdown? (Me too, Ev, me too!)
But a healthy snack helps you to forget a multitude of troubles!
Each DW park has a fruit stand - just check your map!
