Animal Kingdom!

Animal Kingdom is one of, if not our very favorite park.  I am not sure why either.  Maybe it's because on the day we went on our first visit it was just the perfect day or maybe it's because of Everest - our very favorite roller coaster.  At any rate, we love Animal Kingdom! 
 One the way into the park, we decided that the big 3 and I would make a sprint into the park to try to ride Everest as many times as possible before our breakfast reservation at the Tusker House.  
 And that's just what we did!  We sprinted from the parking lot to our favorite ride at Disney and got in two quick rides all before breakfast! So.  Much.  Fun.  
 These three are rock stars! 
 We had breakfast at Tusker House.  
 All the grandchildren with Papa and Gigi.  The dresses the girls are wearing were from Papa and Gigi and came from Target.  They were so cute! Carter is wearing an Angry Bird Star Wars shirt from my mom.  
 The whole family!
 Right after breakfast, we hit up the safari!
 We were able to see so many animals, too! 
 Pretty Summer. 
 My sidekick and mini me.  I am so proud of this girl.  On our first trip, she barely came out of the stroller and was terrified of all of the characters.  She was such a big girl on this trip, hugging the characters, riding all the rides, and just being her sweet self.  
 She did take a long nap in the stroller while were at AK.  David took the big 3 to ride some rides while I sat in the sun and let Story sleep.  
 Pocahontas is one of Summer's favorite princesses, and we did not get to see her on our first trip, so it was very exciting to find her in Animal Kingdom.  
 She was just beautiful and so sweet with the girls.  
 I love this picture of Summer with her.  Summer was telling Pocahontas that she is her favorite Princess!  Sweet!
 Next we met some of the characters from Up.  
 Our party of six.  
 David and Russell.  
 The Lion King show at Animal Kingdom is one of the best.  The colors are so beautiful and the music is awesome! 
 And once again we found ourselves back at Everest.  
 Do you see us in the middle?
 We shut down the park on our favorite roller coaster once again.  We rode Everest 9x, beating our previous record of 6! Such a fun day! We headed back to the hotel when AK closed for an early supper at the hotel and an early bedtime.  
Cake is just better when it's shared.  Next up, Epcot!
