Madison and Kylee crashed on the sleeper sofa together after a long night of dancing together at the reception.
That's right, the title says that we spent 14 hours at all 4 Disney parks. We all had a fantastic time and just wanted to get the most out of our park hopper passes. (thanks again Karen) We started the day at The Animal Kingdom and headed straight to the safari adventure. We were so excited to be lucky enough to see the baby giraffe in the road. It was only 6 feet tall.
Everything was SO BEAUTIFUL at this particular park. I could have taken pics all day of the scenery.
Behind us is the ride "Everest" Austin wasn't very fond of this ride, but I must say it was one of my favorite rides because it was so unpredictable.
The kids meeting Chip and Dale. I don't know how they can stand being in the hot 90 degree weather down there.
Next we were off to Epcot. Tons of cool rides and attractions to visit there.
After a few hours at Epcot we headed off to Hollywood Studios.
Madison was wearing down about 12 hours into our day at Disney. Just a quick nap on dad's shoulder while waiting in line for the Toy story ride was all she needed to get her through the rest of the day.
Karen is so lucky she gets to visit the parks whenever she wants. Thanks for helping us plan out what to do at all the parks so we can squeeze them all into one day, Karen!
We finally met Mickey and Minnie at nearly 11pm.
One last pic of the castle before we leave.
The kids with their 3D glasses before getting on a ride.
This Mr. Potato head would move around and sing songs while you were waiting in line for a ride. At one point his eyes looked straight at Madison and he said "hey you in the white mickey mouse shirt" She looked down at her white mickey shirt, looked up at Mr. Potato head and then looked over at me and Karen with a freaked out look on her face. It was so funny I couldn't stop laughing. Then she hid behind Austin and Mr. Potato Head said "don't hide behind your brother" Austin thought there were cameras somewhere but Madi figured it was just part of the magic of Disney.
There really is something magical about that place to get me to stay there for 14 hours after dancing all night in high heels and only getting about 5 hours of sleep.
Cousins!
Still gives me chills to see this picture... There was a plane sky writing Sunday morning.
I wish I could just close my eyes, click my heels together and be back here in an instant.
Pete, Carolyn and the kids on the ferry to Magic Kingdom.
Love this picture!

Family and friends loaded on to the bus to ride to the chapel.
Cassandra was one of the most beautiful brides I have ever seen.
