Anniversary Trip to Disney

Charles and I celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary on March 3rd with a camping trip to Disney with the kids. We spent Friday and Saturday at Disney's Fort Wilderness campground and then Sunday we spent the day at Magic Kingdom. Friday night we went to the Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue dinner show that's held at the campground. Before the dinner show started we took Cameron for a pony ride at the stables, which he really enjoyed. The food & dinner show were great but not really aimed for younger children so the kids got quite antsy. After chasing Olivia around for 20 minutes, we left 10 minutes early. Saturday we spent the day swimming, walking around the campground & playing at the campsite. After an early morning thunderstorm (6:00 am), the skies cleared for a beautiful day at the Magic Kingdom. Once we arrived into the park, we rode the train & then headed to tomorrow land where Cameron & Charles rode the race cars. Then we did the tea cups, waited a long time for the Winnie the Pooh ride (which scared Olivia at the end), watched a 3d mickey movie, rode on it's a small world & then ate lunch while both the kids slept in the stroller. After lunch we went to the country bear jamboree, swiss family treehouse & watched the parade before heading out. Some of the rides (like Dumbo) were closed due to an expansion at the park. We definitely did a condensed visit to the park since the kids were tired after a long weekend at the campground and also because we had to pick my cousin Graham up at the airport on our way home. Graham stayed with us for 5 days while on spring break from college. He spent the time visiting my grandparents & playing with the kids (who loved him!) I'm so disappointed I don't have pictures from Graham's visit!
