We spent our first full day in Orlando at the Magic Kingdom inside Disney World. WOW! It is so beautiful! The first thing you see when you walk through the front gate is Cinderella's castle. It is huge. We got there just in time to watch a parade. Carter was standing up in the stroller watching the parade when he fell face forward onto the cement. Adam tried to catch him and so did Jayne. She ended up hitting Adam in the sternum and knocked the wind out of him. Carter ended up with a scratch on the top of his head. I think Adam hurt more than Carter did! The parade was really neat. The Disney characters were all there. We saw Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Snow White, the 7 dwarfs, Cinderella, Aladdin, the list goes on and on! We walked around until Carter spotted the Dumbo ride. Of course he could not go on it alone and I did not feel comfortable letting Maddie take him alone. The line to ride was long and all the 2 of them did was argue. FUN! They liked the ride allot! We took the kids on the "It's a small world" ride and it was so neat. Carter was just mesmerized. It was cool and I took allot of pictures while we were going through it. If I remember correctly I think this was my Grandpa Simonson's favorite ride in Disney Land. I now know why. Maddie and Carter talked Grandma Jayne into letting them get their faces painted. They got to pick the design they wanted. Adam and I went around and saw some shops while the kids were getting their faces done. Carter sat like a good boy just like they asked him to. I was shocked! He looked so adorable. Maddie looked cute too! After we got done with face painting we went to ride on the tea cups. This was Carter's FAVORITE ride. The faster we would spin the louder he would giggle. He is not afraid of rides. When it got dark we found a place to stand so that we could watch the fireworks program. They shoot them off above Cinderella's castle. I watched the expressions on the kid's faces and it was a moment I will never forget. I got teary eyed. That moment made the entire trip worthwhile. I just cannot put it into words. AWESOME.
