I couldn’t resist this photo of a little girl dressed up as Snow White

Is she adorable or WHAT?  She’s even picking up her skirt!

My lunch at “Morocco”  (Epcot has different countries you can visit, it’s so fascinating)

It was a lamb wrap and it was GOOD!

It’s amazing what you can do with shrubbery and spare time!

Mommy is happy after finally making it to France for coffee and pastries.

The cream puff was dreamy!

It took great effort to get this next picture.

Because Ethan was full of mischief and kept putting his hand in front of my camera just as soon as I clicked the picture!  I had an audience of strangers by the time I was done (we were in the way).

They all thought Davy was cute though.

Cute indeed!

  1. I had a comment all typed up and xanga ate it or something. Anyway, how did your kids enjoy Epcot? I’m sure nothing compared to the Magic Kingdom itself.The pictures are beautiful. How did Grace get a private audience with Sleeping Beauty??? 🙂

  2. I loved the second one and the one of your daughter sitting on the ground next to the shrubbery! What precious memories you have captured of this holiday! ~Colleen~

  3. After looking at the pictures yesterday and today I really want to plan a trip there.  I’m 36 and I ‘ve never been .  With having children that will be 10 years old and 5 years old this summer I think it would be a good time.   Maybe this next year we can go.  Thank you for posting the wonderful picutures!!!  Some of them could be post cards. 🙂

  4. the photo of your son getting into the founatin is hysterical!  LOL  it reminds me of my oldest when i took him to a fancy upscale mall as a small child with a new friend who was very much “just so and proper” with her son of the same age.  my child looked into the coin fountain at this beautiful new mall and jumped right in.  LOL  at the time i was embarrassed and i had NOTHING to dry him off with (no diaper bag because he was about 3 or 4).  i had to get maintenance to bring us a towel and then we headed to the nearest department store to buy dry clothes.  LOL  what fun memories your photo brought back!  🙂

  5. I think, if you were a mind to, you could sell the picture of Davy and Nemo to Disney. It is so sweet. I love his expression.  Those topiaries are amazing!

  6. Since I just lived vicariously through your vacation pics, I want to thank you. It’s the closest I’ll come to a vacation this year! Hope I wasn’t a pest! Thanks for a good time! LOL

  7. Those are great pictures, as usual:)   Your lunch looks very good!!   I’m glad you were able to have such a wonderful time & share your precious memories with all of us!

  8. Wow.  Loved the pictures (again!).  I remember the food at Epicot!  We ate in france when I was there and we also had to go to the pastery shop!  It is amazing how that sticks with you.  I went 13 years ago and I still remember everything I had and how great it was.
    I love the picture of Grace holding her dad’s hand.  That one was my favorite!

  9. What a fun time you guys had!  Brings back memories of my honeymoon.  Matt and I are bemoaning not bringing the kids down here with us, they would have had such a fabulous time.  I loved Epcot the most!

  10. No, you can’t have too many pictures! I too love the one of David with Nemo – it looks as though they are making the same expression! Oh, the last one of Davy was also adorable. You got so many great pictures of your kids; WONDERFUL!Thanks for sharing about your trip – we’re all glad you’re back and having fun seeing the pictures!

  11. Cute indeed:-. Looks like your day at Epcot was spectacular. I was sad we didn’t visit the different countries on our last trip there. Being 8 months pregnant and 100+ degrees I will simply say…I was a bear. The cream puff sounds so YUMMY.

  12. How fun! ….. that wasn’t too many pictures at all.  Sounds like you did enjoy Epcot.  Nice to go to different countries in the same day…isn’t it?  Davy and Nemo are a crack up.  I enjoy them all.  Little girl laughing at the show is so sweet.  My outgoing husband was in two different shows when we were there.  He stands out in a crowd.  Cute picture of you in France!  Jenny

  13. Love all the pics! I am such a happy aunt knowing how great of a time all the children had.I can’t wait to hear all about it tonight 🙂
    What a great day I am having today in my garden…Naomi and Weston have been outside with me all morning too. See ya later…

  14. What beautiful pictures.  My husband and I are huge Disney fans, and can’t wait to take the kids when they’re a little bigger.  I first went to Magic Kingdom and Epcot when I was 7 years old — they were still working on Epcot when we went, the “golf ball” was only half finished!  I remember getting “recruited” into a silly roadside play in “England.”  My brother was away at college (final exams) and it was his birthday, and we called him from “China,” I think…
    I think my most unique experience, though, was marching in the Main Street parade at Disneyland in California with my high school band…SO fun to see some behind-the-scenes stuff!

  15. WOW, and more wows. What a great time and great pictures. I only know the CA Disney. What a gorgeous visit. The picture and caption with Grace and Rich holding hands seemed especially dear to me, having just sent my littlest hand off to Europe. (sighs and tear drops). blessings and love from SC

  16. Oh what fun!!  It looks like a beautiful place and something you will never forget.  (I went in 1972 when I was 10 years old) and still remember it.  It has changed dramatically of course.  It looks like there was something wonderful for everyone!  Thanks for sharing your pictures……  : )

  17. Absolutely not … 22 pictures is never too many … do you have more?  Please do share!  I’m working on putting up 26! :o)  Although they’re not as interesting as yours! It’s a lot of work, too!  It looks like you all had such a special time together … we’re due for a vacation, and that it looks like we’d have a lot of fun, even if we are a couple of older, empty nesters, right?!  You have to tell me, please … what kind of camera are you using??
