On our last day in Disney World we headed over to Animal Kingdom with Chad and Colleen for breakfast with the characters! We also had to do the Safari again! But then we had to head back to the hotel to check out. We went back to Magic Kingdom to do a few more rides before leaving for the airport. Unfortunately it was pretty crowded and we were only able to get in to see Mickeys Philharmagic 3D. It was very coo! We would have liked to do a few more rides, but we had to say goodbye to Mickey and Friends and head home.
I LOVE this picture :)
Safari Donald! Not a good picture of us...oh well. Love Donald holding Jacks hand!
Safari Daisy!! Notice Brodys shirt with OJ all down the front.
Safari Goofy...Brody was only interested in his tooth!
I think this picture is great!
Safari Mickey...Brody only wanted to touch his nose!
Love that he is laughing about Brody touching his nose!
I think this is my FAVORITE picture from the entire trip! He was on the safari and using his binoculars!! Thanks to Chad for getting this picture!
Jane, Jack, and Clark on the safari!
This giraffe was walking right up next to our car! It was so amazing!
I was so busy taking pictures of the giraffe that I almost missed the white rhino right next to our car! Man it was cool!
Just a little perspective of how close we were to the rhino!

We each picked out a prize while we were there! I wanted each of my kids to pick out a stuffed animal and thought it would be perfect if Jack got Donald (you know, because of Duck) and Brody got Mickey (he loves Mickey). Well, that didnt happen. Every time we went into a store I would show Mickey to Brody and he didnt want anything to do with him. So what did my boys end up with? Star Wars. Oh well. They were happy and I ended up getting a Mickey for my prize so it all worked out I guess!
Clay and his stylin' hat :)
Me and Mickey :)
This is what Clay and Jack picked out. Would not have been my choice but I dont always get a say!
I think these characters are so cute! I was trying to get Jack to get these but was overruled so I convinced Brody to get them instead ;)

While we had a magical time and will remember this trip for years to come, there were a few incidents that are worth remembering in another sort of way!
#1 Brody had a hard time falling asleep in the hotel room! He turned into a crazy boy and because of that our sleeping arangements changed just about every night. One night I was sleeping with Brody (and Clay with Jack). I was having some crazy dream that night about Brody and poo and sure enough woke up to find that Brody had a 'blow out' of some sort and had gotten poo all over the sheets. Not cool.
#2 Next night Clay was sleeping with Brody. Around 1 am Brody threw up all over the sheets. So we had to call room service in the middle of the night. Thankfully he was ok...probably had nothing to do with all of the junk we were eating!
#3 We were waiting in line for Winnie the Pooh when Jack suddenly had to pee really bad (he does this all the time. He usually waits to tell us he has to go to the bathroom until it is almost too late). So I finally got out of line with him and we ran to the bathroom. As we ran into the bathroom he peed on the floor. Ugh.
#4 We were on our last flight home. It was late. We had changed the boys into their jammies. I was in the middle and had both of the boys asleep with their heads on my lap. I had dozed off and woke up just as Jack threw up. Yep. Right there in the seat. He was still asleep but I managed to sit him up and yell at Clay to help! It was everywhere (somehow amazingly not on me). And it smelled. We had to change him back into his shorts and t-shirt and he was freezing. He had thrown up all over his duck and blanket so we had to beg the stewardess for a blanket (they only had them for those in first class). Not sure what we would have done otherwise. We got it all cleaned up. Jack told us he ate too much food. And then he went back to sleep. I sat and cried for a minute and wished I was home in my bed, but was thankful that we were able to get it all under control. And somehow I dont think anyone noticed. The guy in front of us turned around and told us how good the kids did after we had landed in Seattle. Really?? He didnt smell anything? I was amazed. I felt disgusting and couldnt wait to get home and cleaned up!
We made it home and got right back into our busy schedule! We miss Mickey and friends! Jack keeps asking to go on rides! We are so glad we were able to make this trip work and do so with all of our family! To know you is to Love you!
