Magic Kingdom!

we woke up to a VERY foggy morning, but knowing it was going to be perfect weather for Magic Kingdom we dressed the boys in their Mickey shirts and ate breakfast before heading out to the park of all parks: Magic Kingdom! the boys were SO excited!both boys got their Mickey ears the first time they visited Disney World. Jayden's fit him MUCH better this year than last year.thumbs (and fingers) up for DISNEY!we were glad the fog was gone and the sun was out! READY TO GO! (sometimes it's so hard to get everyone to OPEN their eyes for a group photo).we gave Peyton the choice to ride the monorail or the boat over to Magic Kingdom. he chose the boat.... we were not surprised. he LOVED it!it was so great to see Magic Kingdom decorated for Halloween!we made it!we got right on the Small World ride. the lines were great and the boys LOVED seeing everything.Peyton was obviously LOVING every minute!
next we were off to Dumbo. once again the lines were great!Jayden was getting so tired.after riding Dumbo, Jason and Peyton rode the Speedway while Jayden slept in the stroller. it was so nice outside. i sat by the Speedway and watched all the families ride by with their kids. it was so funny to see all the dads with their boys. the cars were ALL OVER the place! Peyton had a blast driving.
after the Speedway Jayden woke up and we ate a great lunch. then we headed over to the play area. the boys had so much fun cooling off in the fountains!
so much fun!we decided to go back to the condo to rest a little then return to the park later in the day. as soon as we got into the car the boys passed out.once we were home Peyton tried to rest a little more on the couch....with no help from Jayden.they watched the ducks,played outside,and the ducks watched them.Grandpa aka Paw Paw (Jayden has his own name for G-pa now) came over for a drink and to take the boys down to the pool with Jason.all of them went to the pool for some water slide fun. i stayed at the condo to visit with my mom and dad. their condo was right next door. it was great visiting with them. we really love staying here!then it was time to go back to Magic Kingdom to see the fireworks and to ride a few more rides! Peyton wanted to ride the monorail this time.... so interesting!Jayden was a little star-struck when we went on the Buzz Lightyear ride. i love how he is holding on to his Buzz!
the castle looked so great at night! it changed a few different colors throughout the night.every year when we go to Disney we get a picture of Jason doing an exercise in one of the parks for his students in PE. this year Peyton joined him doing a lunge in front of the castle. so funny!i tried to get a picture of Jayden and the castle, but i ended up with a glowing mess and a crooked castle. it was so dark out that i didnt want to step too far from Jayden. Peyton and Jason were ahead of us.
after riding a few more rides we found a place on main street to eat and a good spot for the fireworks. they were great! the boys were so excited to see Tinkerbell fly out of the castle.by the time we were leaving, both boys were worn out again. Jason ended up carrying Peyton. we were wanting the double stroller at this point. we rode the boat on the way out of the park. i bought a lot of glow sticks at the dollar store before we left on our trip. they were obviously a hit with everyone. haha!the boys fell asleep in the car on the way to the condo. Jason and I carried them in, changed them, and put them to bed. we did not hear a sound from them all night.
