Love

Our job is to love others without stopping to inquire whether or not they are worthy.
That is not our business and, in fact, it is nobody's business.
What we are asked to do is to love, and this love itself will render both ourselves and our neighbors worthy if anything can.

Disney World - Day 3

We were greeted by a cowgirl playing with a lasso on our way into the park today.  She let each of the kids take a turn.


Then we continued on our way to Thunder Mountain Railroad.  After collecting Fast Passes to return again a little later.

While Grandma Sharon and Papa made their way to Sleepy Hollow to split a ginormous ice cream cookie sandwich, we went to the Haunted House and saw ghostly footsteps.

And body-less apparitions.


Then back to Thunder Mountain Railroad for another ride with hands in the air!


Even though it isn't in focus, I just love the smile on my boy's face!

We finally headed over to Fantasyland and Chloe got to ride Prince Charming's carousel.

While guzzling down a gigantic pixi stick she bought with her own money at a gift shop.

We saw a skywriter drawing this message out when we walked to the Mad Tea Party.  Amen!

Chloe rode with Grandma and Papa while I went with my guys.  It was quite dizzying being inside the tea cup with Owen twisting us away as fast as he could.

We visited Buzz Lightyear.

And shot targets in the dark.

The kids wanted to go to an arcade and another gift shop to spend more of their money.  Chloe and I played air hockey while Owen jumped on this game to beat the spinning lights.

On our way back to the front, we stopped to watch the marching band.

Before taking one last trip on the old steam locomotive around the whole Magic Kingdom.

The kids cashed in their Guest Conductor passes to welcome everyone aboard the train.

They were quite enthusiastic.  And loud.

And so thrilled with this special privilege.

Disney creates so many opportunities to make kids feel special and make an absolutely magical visit that won't be forgotten.  Well done, Disney.

Before catching the Monorail back to the parking lots, we stopped for one last family picture with the grandparents.  Thank you for coming on another Thanksgiving vacation to Disney World with us!
