Disney Day 3 September 2011

October 8, 2011 | Uncategorized

 

Happy Saturday! I am busy selling Running Skirts at Varsity Sports in Mandeville all day today, and will be running a half marathon in the morning with Team in Training! Tonight is our inspiration dinner, and my parents are coming, I can’t wait to go to it. I have heard great things about these dinners and hope it will pump us up for the race.

——————————————-

I thought today would be a good day to do some more recap from my September Disney vacation. We left off after the Saints game and Whispering Canyon Café dinner with some friends.

The next day, Monday, we went to the Magic Kingdom. All the fall decorations looked great…even though it was 90 degrees outside.

I was still really excited about the Saints win from the day before…

We rode Big Thunder Mountain, and decided to go over to Tom Sawyers Island. It was a hot day and we thought walking around in the shade of the trees, etc. would be a bit cooler. It was a lot of fun to explore the island!

why, hello mr. scary bird. I will move away slowly…

 

Bobby found it funny I had a hard time running across the barrel bridge…

We found some rocking chairs and sat down to relax for awhile.

 

Doesn’t the blue Bag look great on Bobby? I think so.

It was soon close to lunchtime, so we rode haunted mansion then headed to Liberty Tree Tavern. This is one of our favorite places. They have my favorite dessert, and really good turkey, dressing, and masked potatoes. We split the entrée and dessert and each got an appetizer.  I scarfed down that dessert so fast…oh it’s SO good.

 

After lunch, we rode Buzz Lightyear, the Peoplemover, the carousel of progress, and the Train.

QOTD: Would you rather order an appetizer or a dessert at a restaurant?

Some days, the scoreboard doesn’t look the way we Some days, the scoreboard doesn’t look the way we want it to, but that doesn’t change how proud we are. ❤️

Yesterday we didn’t win the championship, but that didn’t stop us from remembering what really matters, that our daughter is an amazing human who deserves to be celebrated even on the tough days. 🍧

Parents, it’s SO easy to get wrapped up in the game. Let’s always remember that our kids’ worth isn’t measured by a trophy or a score. Celebrate them. Encourage them. Love them unconditionally. ✨

They are enough. Always. 💛
