Christmas at Disney!

This past weekend Brennan and I went to Disney with some of my girlfriends. Brennan LOVED all of the attention all weekend. We went up Friday night for Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party at Magic Kingdom- it was awesome! They had a really cool parade, a Christmas show at the castle, and fabulous fireworks. Brennan was just in awe of the whole thing. Not to mention the "free" hot chocolate and cookies.
Saturday we bounced back and forth between Epcot and Hollywood Studios. There were just too many different things at different times all day in both parks that we couldn't pass up. The neatest part of the day was getting to visit Santa, and taking pics, without paying for some overpriced picture package! Brennan was very intrigued with Santa and Mrs. Claus- and didn't get upset. We'll see about next year though!
Sunday morning we just got up (early thanks to Brennan), ate breakfast, and headed home. It was a super fun weekend with some of my closest girlfriends!

This year was the first year I made it back to Alabama for Thanksgiving! And I'm so glad I did!! I got to see lots of cousins... it was an awesome trip! And totally worth the 28 total hours in the car. Can't wait to do it again in 2 years!
