Photos From Trip to Disney World

We took the kids to Disney World (first time). My (Rex's) best friend, Mike, and his son, Dominic, had a nice place to stay and invited us down, so we took advantage of the free lodging!

The kids had a blast... it was a quick trip - 2 days at Disney - but was well worth the trip!

We're really here!!!

Dylan tried his best to crawl inside mommy when he saw Captain Hook
Maryn was so excited when she saw Cinderella. She stared up at her and waved
and covered her mouth in excitement!

Fun in Gatlinburg, TN

We went to stay a night in Gatlinburg to ride the Trolley and see their Christmas lights. Their Christmas lights were pretty much unimpressive for the hype... Maryn was asking to get off the "bus" just 15 minutes into the hour ride.

We at least has fun earlier in the day riding the tram to Ober Gatlinburg. Then once we were there, we rode the ski lift to the very top and then again to ride the alpine slide. The kids enjoyed that, although riding the ski lift with a 3 and 4 year old was pretty frightening at first. But they sat still and didn't really move... and even if they wanted to, the kung fu grip and of Mommy and Daddy's hands would have saved them from certain peril!
