We had the opportunity to go to Disney yesterday (courtesy of Polly and family - thanks so much for your extra day!!) and had a great time. Brian and I went and we took Rexford and Austin along with their cousins Ian and Shaelyn and my sister Alyson who happened to be babysitting them that day. It was a little more crowded than I would have liked but we had fun anyway. We started out with the Magic Kingdom in the morning and then headed over to Animal Kingdom after lunch. We didn't get to check everything out there because it was getting late and we were all pretty tired but the kids enjoyed the animals and the train ride. I was surprised that Brian actually went since he's not usually a theme park guy and he was actually still in a good mood at the end of the day :) I think he had fun going on the rides with Rexford and Rexford was happy to have Daddy there. Austin was so good the whole day. He got a little mad on the way home, probably because he'd hardly eaten all day. We had lots of fun together!
We started out with the race cars but we don't have any pictures. It was a lot of fun though for all.

Here we are outside the Magic Kingdom. Austin was sound asleep in the sling most of the day.
The kids had lots of fun together the whole day. They were silly and crazy, talking and singing and playing around. Here they are on the tram.
Shaelyn was the only one interested in getting close to the characters. Here she is with Meeko at Animal Kingdom.
The kids liked these elephant statues and wanted to take a picture with them.

Rexford wouldn't look at the camera because he was too busy checking out all the animals
Shaelyn would have staying at the petting zoo all day. She loved brushing and petting the sheep and goats.

Rexford finally crashed on our way out of Animal Kingdom. He slept even when I took him out of the stroller and on the tram ride. Unfortunately he woke up in transition to the car but at least he got a little nap.
It was really nice weather all day and we had a fun day. We went home around dinner time and I crashed shortly after on the couch with Austin.

I am so glad you were able to use the tickets. I think you did more in one day than we did all week. Brian is actually smiling on the carousel! I am so glad I got to meet you, that was the highlight of my trip.
Besides being exhausted at the end of the day, I had a great time. Thanks for letting us go with you!
