Downtown Disney

We have been in Orlando twice in the past two months without stepping foot into DisneyWorld, so I was dying to go to Downtown Disney on our last afternoon. We just had a few hours, so it wasn't worth buying one day passes to a park. Our kids were so excited when we drove under the Disney sign. They were so thrilled to be there!

We had lunch at the TRex cafe

Rocket Launch

We got to see a Delta IV rocket launch, which was really exciting for both kids and adults. Our first attempt at seeing it got scrubbed at T-7 seconds. After that there was a window that they couldn't launch because of the space shuttle Atlantis returning home. Thankfully, we got to see it on our last night.

Andrew's choir performance

Andrew was very excited for his choir performance (a big change from 6 months ago!). He was so proud of himself for singing on stage with his friends.

Evie partied with her friends at Chuck E Cheese

She had asked for a birthday cake this year, so I was thrilled to find a local bakery that made an egg-free, milk-free cake.
