The Roberts Do Disney

Well, the title says it all. We returned home this afternoon from our "magical" trip to Disney World. The magic here would be that the kids were angels... even Hayley, and we had a very enjoyable three days!

Our trip began with a visit to Downtown Disney and a T-Rex dining experience!

Hayley is enthralled with all things dinosaurs right now and T-Rex was right up her alley!

Todd spent most of the trip flirting with every lady he saw. He did take a moment to enjoy the dinosaurs though.

We visited the Lego Store where Hayley got to build to her heart's content...
... while Mommy and Todd hung out together!

Then we visited the Disney store where the kids tried on some mouse ears...

... and Hayley found herself right at home with her favorite friend!

On our first full day, we visited Magic Kingdom where we took in a Mickey Mouse show on the steps of Cinderella's Castle...

before venturing to several FantasyLand rides, including Todd's favorite, It's a Small World. He really enjoyed the dancing hula girls serenading him.

So much so that by the end of the ride he had drifted off to a blissful slumber.

After an afternoon nap, we headed to Epcot where we got to see Nemo... and be swallowed by a shark!

All before catching the fantastic fireworks show!

The next morning, we got up and headed out to Blizzard Beach for a day of water park fun! We spent our time in Tikes Peak where Hayley got to fly down some slides...
... and splash in a waterfall.

All while our ladies man spent his day flirting with an older woman in a polka dot bikini...

... and flying down some slides with Daddy!

For our final day, we headed back to the Magic Kingdom where Hayley enjoyed getting to drive her own race car.

By far, Hayley's favorite ride was Pirates of the Carribean. And while the cast members kept calling Hayley "princess" and directing us to the the princess characters, Hayley only had eyes for a photo op with Captain Hook. Which I found ironic, seeing as how Haley has never seen the movie Peter Pan.

We are all exhausted and glad to be home, but cherishing the wonderful family memories we made together over the past three days!
