Home From Walt Disney World
Well I made it safely home last night Friday about 10:30pm is when we drove back into the Denver Area. It was a long drive but we are all safe at home now. I have to safe it was a very fun trip and I did enjoy myself. Yes I missed my friends and I missed not only my lil ball of fur Gypsy but I missed my guy Chris very much as well.
The drive back wasn't to bad really. Sorta funny it seemed to go by faster lol. Any way when we were in Kansas mom got a bug up her butt *its just a saying* we were in Manhattan and we drove up some cause well we needed gas and a break any way and stopped at Kansas State College. Which was pretty cool. Its the college that my father went to and it was cool to see, we looked around a little and took some pictures before we left to get gas and change out drivers lol.
For the most part it was strait driving no stops unless to strech your legs, get gas for the car or change drivers. We made good time there wasnt much traffic.
Again as you have read in my blogs I posted each day about what we did at Disney and I really did have a lot of fun there and there is so much magic there and fun that its just a magical place. I really am glad I got to go and got to have fun. But then I am also glad to be home now too :)
So that is my report and I hope everyone liked all the pictures. I have a few more coming to put up so keep a look out for more pictures :)

Day 12 of Disney Trip
Well today was the last park day *tear* After I woke up I found myself alone lol I guess Mom and Mark got up early and left to go to spend the day at Epcot. Once I got up and got myself in order I headed out the door and went to Magic Kingdom :) I went threw all the lands to see mainly characters I could see. First I came across Wendy from Peter Pan, then I headed over to Tomorrowland and saw Stitch and even Buzz Lightyear and even went on the Buzz Lightyear ride which was fun, then I headed over back to Fantasy land and saw Mary Poppins and also rode the carousel as well then I headed out of the park to ride the monorail to the TTC which is short for Transportation and Ticket Center to take a bus to the Disney MGM Studios.
When I got to MGM I checked out some shops and tried to see some characters but they were all getting ready for shows and parades so I didn't get a chance to see anyone and since I did all the rides before, I got an item engraved for the love of my life Christofer and then headed out to the bus to take to Epcot :)
When I got to Epcot I headed over to Inventions which is like a whole thing to deal with computers and gaming and such which is really cool. I even got to build a robot and take it home with me, she is all purple lol :P I really enjoyed going threw Inventions and after that I headed over to the world showcase to head to Marocco where we had dinner which was really cool they even have a real belly dancer lol
After dinner I headed out of the park to come back to the hotel to relax and update my blog and pictures and watch some tv. So thats all my day :)

Day 1 of Disney Trip :D
Heya Folks,
We made it to Kissimmee, Florida YAY. We left Highlands Ranch, Colorado on Friday at 4am on the long road trip. We are checked in at the Ramada Hotel for today *Saturday and Sunday* until Monday when we check in at Pop Century.
The drive down here was pretty interesting lol. Mark took the first shift. It pretty much was raining when we left Colorado even when we got into Kansas. Mark drove a good ways till about Tennessee then Mom took over for a while. It was pretty smooth driving for her. I wasn't feeling all to well from coming down from the mountains. My head has started to hurt so I ended up taking half a vicadin and a midrin and even ibuprofen as well and finally the pain in my head finally stopped yay. Well after a while I passed out a sleep and woke up just outside Chattanooga Tenn. Mom couldn't drive anymore and once I woke up I took over driving and got us out of Tenn, and all the way threw Georgia even threw Atlanta haha that was fun o_O I never want to drive threw Atlanta ever again!!!!!!!
Well once we got out of Atlanta, mom took over driving again cause I needed to take my meds and needed a break from driving. Mom drove the rest of the way into Florida and here we are. We even drove some what into Disney to show Mark around a little before we checked into the hotel hehehe. I will have some pictures, cause well I haven't been able to take many pictures while driving :P so don't worry in the next few days I will have pictures :P So I'm gonna go relax for a little now that I'm not squished in a car lmao :D
*HUGS*
