Disney Trip

We had a great trip to Disney with the Lamberts. Ethan had a great time. His favorite ride changes, but he loved everything. However, he did not like the Winnie the Pooh ride, go figure. He did not like when it bounced. We were very proud of him for going on Splash Mountain. After dinner on Thursday night, Hannah, Rachel, Ethan and I decided to try to make it to the fireworks at Magic Kingdom. You can see in the picture that they were rained out and we got soaked. We had a lot of laughs though and made a memory. Ethan was very excited to take Dad to the park on Friday. First we had breakfast with the characters. Ethan loved it. Aubrey did not. We tried every character that came by our table and she did not like any of them. I also had visions of Aubrey wearing the cute little Minnie Mouse hat with the ears. She would have nothing to do with any of the ones I tried on her. However, she loved her brothers hat. I even tried to buy her the same hat, but no she only liked Ethans. She did like an oven mitt in one of the stores. We settled for a Cinderella shirt for her. We had a great time and truly enjoyed our time with the Lamberts. It is a blessing to be able to find true friends and we have definitely found some in this great family. Russ was quite the photographer so I will post more pictures soon.
