Continuing to Adjust to Regular Life...(and it's really hard!)

We were truly spoiled with being in Disney for 9 days (and we enjoyed every minute of it). We are all having a hard time adjusting to our regular life. We've had tears every morning from Aaron who keeps saying, "I miss Disney SO MUCH. I love it there. I want to go back." Donovan continually asks, "When can we go back?"

I truly am jealous of people who are able to travel to Disney every year. With being a teacher and having just the school vacations/summer vacations off (which is exactly when we DON'T want to go to Disney since it's super duper busy, and in the summer busy and unbearably HOT), it makes it highly unlikely we will be returning anytime soon. I do hope we will return in a few years, once our daughter joins our family...

We LOVED our first day at Magic Kingdom (Friday, May 5th) as it was absolutely not crowded at all. We arrived at 8:15 to find the park already open and rides running (it was NOT Extra Magic Hours that day, but rather the park was closing early at 7 pm for Grad Night for Florida students, and due to that there was no evening parade or fireworks, making it much less desirable to most people). We literally walked onto every ride and did not have to wait in line at all! It was incredible. The following day (Saturday) was busier, and the following week (Wednesday the 11th) was VERY busy. We had gotten so used to riding Pooh 3 times, then heading to Dumbo for a couple rides, but on that day, we rode Pooh twice, and by the time we got to Dumbo, the line was over 30 minutes long (for a 2 minute ride!) I cannot imagine if it had been like that on our entire trip. I'm also glad those first few days the boys got all the characters' signatures and photos with them, as those lines were HUGE later during our time at Disney.

We just ordered our Photopass CD with the photos the Disney photographers took, and I'm starting to work on scrapbooks of the boys (photobooks, done online) of our trip. It's so much fun looking through the photos. What incredible memories we have!
