Happiest Place on Earth...Chicago?!?

Let me begin with a bit of a back story...

This vacation has been at least two years in the making if not more!!!  Papaw wanted to take the kids to Disney long before this momma was ready for that! So I made an comment about a certain age requirement...and he held me to it.  ;o)  Jesus didn't come back before summer 2013, so we went to Disney! However, we didn't tell the kids where we were going...thought that should be Papaw's joy!  So for a long time we used the code word "Chicago" when it came up with little ears around.  

I don't think they were disappointed we ended up NOT in Chicago, but Radiator Springs! ;o)

First day, First stop!  MICKEY!!!! 

Pluto is so talented he can sign autographs with his eyes closed!

Cinderella is her favorite!!!

I promise they were having fun!  On the Train in Magic Kingdom.

A late night swim!

These two got to say the magic words to open up the doors to Mickey Mouse Clubhouse!  Yes, my kids still love Disney Jr. and I'm okay with that!!!

Super Hero time!

At least we'll be able to find our way back home! 

One less tooth...here's hoping the tooth fairy can find us at Disney!

(She sent Tinker Bell apparently because there was more cash under that pillow than I ever dreamed of getting for a tooth!)

Mission time:  working with Agent P to stop Dr. Doofenshmirtz! (in the pouring rain)

Probably my favorite picture from the entire week!  She didn't know I had packed her dress and tonight dinner at the castle with Cinderella!!!!  One excited little girl.

Meeting Ariel, another favorite!  A special picture just for Tia!

Loved riding the rides with Papaw.  Didn't get enough pics of him with the kids...he always had the camera in his hands!

Special souvenirs...

Another one bites the dust!!!  She pulled another tooth at Cinderella's castle!  

On the road again...a fun trip with tons of memories...I only scrapped the surface in this post.  These are just the pics I took with my camera...a bit overwhelming to try and pick from all the great pictures that Papaw took!  So grateful for this time together.  Thank you Papaw!
