The first night of our trip we made it to Vicksburg, MS. If you look closely at the picture, Elizabeth and Eli would stand at the window because they could see Caroline and daddy swimming in the pool.
Before we left Vicksburg we had to go to the welcome center to see the cannon and the Mississippi River.
Another stop we made along the way was in Mobile AL to see the USS Alabama battleship. Caroline had a great time exploring all over the ship. Her mommy and daddy did not enjoy it quite as much as we carried babies up and down very steep stairs. There were also only a few rooms on the ship that had a/c. Needless to say we were hot and sweaty!
Greg and Caroline went on the sub, but Eli, Elizabeth and I stayed inside the a/c'd building.
We had some fun times in the car, making silly faces, crying, singing, dancing, etc anything to make the 17hr trip fun and exciting!
We made another pit stop at Pensacola Beach. Eli and Elizabeth loved to eat the sand, Caroline loved tossing the sand.
Greg found the coolest hotel on the beach. It had the coolest room with a separate kids room that had bunk beds, beanbag seats, tv and PlayStation. The hotel also had a lazy river which was just as exciting if not more so than the beach (according to Caroline).
Finally we made it to Disney! Caroline was so excited to see the "real" castle!
My very own pack mule!
So Caroline chose to have her hair done, shimmering makeup, and nails done at the castle instead of a meal at the castle. 2 problems occurred: 1)My camera battery died beforehand and 2) I forgot the dress up dress she was going to wear. So I told her that when we got back to the condo she could put on her dress and I would take a picture. Now in the car on the way back to the condo my little one decides she is going to "re-fix" her hair. So this is the end result, but she was happy and sassy about it and that is what counts.
Greg being a good sport and letting Caroline put some of the makeup she had left over from her makeover on him! That's the sign of a great daddy!
We had a very long line to wait in to see the three main princesses. They were in an air conditioned building and once we made it into the room they were in there was still a line to see them.
Caroline with Princess Aurora, Sleeping Beauty. Caroline got to have some special one on one time talking with each of the princesses. Caroline's face light up so bright when it was her turn, she would also play with her hair the whole time she talked to them. When she got back we would say what did you talk about. Caroline said "Eli and Elizabeth and stuff".
Princess Belle taught Caroline how to sit with her arm out.
Princess Cinderella was the biggest hit!
Goofy and Minnie from the night time parade.
Waiting for the parade to come by.
Our last trip on the monorail train! Caroline loved the monorail!
Our condo had lots of cool pools and several fun playgrounds. Two days we took it easy and hung out at the condo pools and playgrounds which was a nice break!
