Disney World, Here We Come – Part 2
Here is the second half of our first trip to Disney World!
Wednesday, February 4
Park Hopper Day! We started out at Animal Kingdom, then ended the day at Epcot. We didn’t have any FPs at Animal Kingdom but we did get to ride the Kilimanjaro Safari. We saw giraffes, rhinos, elephants, and so many other animals. The next part was pretty amazing! We happened to stumble upon the line for Festival of the Lion King and it was short! We even got seats on the front row! Then Callee was chosen to participate in the actual performance! She thought that was the coolest thing that had every happen to her! Right before we left Animal Kingdom, Jeff, Corey, Zoe, and Stella were able to ride Expedition Everest – Legend of the Forbidden Mountain. Another thrill ride for those 4 thrill seekers!
Disney World, Here We Come – Part 1
When we discovered I was pregnant, we decided that Callee needed a “last time as an only child” trip. Jeff and I decided on Disney World because none of us had ever been. Then my mom, my brother, Corey, and his girlfriend, Zoe, decided to join us. So, I found out I was pregnant in September of 2014. The trip planning started in September of 2014. We made our reservations at the Art of Animation resort. We chose The Lion King suite because it was the only room big enough to hold all 6 of us. After we started planning, my granny, my aunt Tammy, and my cousin, Stella, resolved to come with us too. However, there was not a room big enough for all 9 of us and no more rooms at Art of Animation, so they stayed at Disney’s Pop Century resort. Their resort wasn’t that far from ours, so it was convenient. Our plan was to arrive on Sunday, February 1, 2015 and come home Saturday, February 7, 2015. Even though I would be 6 months when we went, I was still excited to go. We planned from September 2014 until the day before we left. It was fun and exhausting at the same time, but nothing would ever compare to our first trip to Disney World.
God’s Little Miracle
So I decided, I like Timehop. It’s an amazing reminder of the past and how much I have grown and changed. But Timehop doesn’t always show what happened in previous years. Because you actually have to post about events on Facebook or Instagram or Twitter or any other social media side for Timehop to actually pick it up. And some events don’t make it to the social media sites because they’re too difficult to post about.
I’m gonna share about one of those times in this post because it didn’t make my Timehop and it won’t ever make my Timehop because I never did post about it. And it’s always going to be around this time of year because that’s when Alexa, our youngest daughter, was born. She’s our little miracle baby. Now it’s not a miracle in the sense that I had a horrible pregnancy and she barely made it to 38 weeks or that she had some disease that they had to cure. It’s in a sense of God really showing me what He could do and how strong my faith needed to be by how she came into this world.
