For those of you who don't know last week I headed to Disney for a magical family spent vacation. Which may I add, was very well needed!
Anyways it was certainly quit magical, and very tiring at the same time!!! Our days started at 8am rushing to the bus stop so we wouldn't miss the monorail! If you know me you for sure know I take forever to get ready... like it's seriously an issue lol! It's all good tho I simply just started my day a bit earlier.
Any who for those of you who may not be quit familiar with Disney or how the resorts work, here's some back round info to help you better understand. First off, we stay at the Shades of Green. Which is a military resort for all men and women in the armed services and their families. I am forever grateful for my dads service in the Navy, and continue to pray daily for all the men and women protecting our country. I can remember staying there since I was very young, every time we went to Disney. It truly holds tones of memories, that me and my family cherish.
Each resort on Disney property has its own bus service which brings you to the ticket and transportation center, in which you can access the monorail that then takes you to certain parks. On the other hand some busses take you directly to certain parks. Confusing, I know, it's just how it works.
Our first day was in Magic Kingdom. After all you have to start and end your vacation with the most magical park! Here is where my sister and I rode Space Mountain just about 10 times, and I ate about three mickey bars! Our next day was spent in Epcot, with hopping to Animal Kingdom later in the day. Which my favorite new ride hands down was the Frozen one that opened up about a month ago. Totally worth the wait! My favorite part about Epcot is probably the mini countries. Its pretty awesome getting to experience different countries in one place. We had lunch in France, which is always amazing!!! After we spent our day in Epcot, we headed to Animal Kingdom. Where I tackled my fear of the Mt. Everest roller coaster. May have gotten a little shaky before hand, but ended up riding it twice:) Our third day was a rest up day. Which is where we take a break from the parks for a day. If you didn't know they redid Disney Springs, now the home to any store you can dream of ! After eating at Chef Mickeys, favorite restaurant ever, we headed to Disney Springs and spent the rest of our evening shopping. Our fourth day was spent at Hollywood Studios, and Epcot. Absolutley LOVE the Star Wars ride in Hollywood Studios!!! We finished off our night eating dinner in Germany. Which was a first for our family! I would have never known I like German food until now! Our fifth day was spent at Magic Kingdom! Eating more mickey bars, and for my sister dole whips, riding our favorite rides and making even more memories. This was our last day at the parks, so definitely a bittersweet day. I have been blessed to be coming to Disney since my first birthday, and the feeling of leaving is so hard. I will probably never stop crying every time I have to say goodbye. The feeling you get when arriving to Disney to when you leave is truly magical. It's the one place on earth I can truly put all my worries, and stresses except my fear of heights aside, and have fun! Since saying goodbye is too hard we always end up adding a day to our vacation. We spent this day at the pool, and ended with more shopping and a little ice cream in Disney Springs ( I couldn't help myself)!!!
Over all I had a fantastic time with my family, and took tones of pictures to share! I hope all of you reading have or get to experience Disney at least once in your lifetime. You will be forever changed for the better:)

This of course wouldn't be a Disney post without a Disney quote!
