A week’s worth of Disney fun in one night

When our family got to go to Disney earlier this month, I was given a gift from my best friend and former roommate: the gift of time.

On our last night in Orlando, Carolyn drove two hours after work to join us for dinner at our hotel and ended up staying until the wee hours because we just couldn’t get enough of each other!

This picture didn’t seem sufficient to capture our time together:

Carolyn & me at the Pop Century

Not bad considering this was about 10pm, and after Carolyn had been in the car for hours and we had been at a theme park all day! However, we didn’t think that it was fair after not seeing each other for months that we should only have one picture to remember this moment by.

So, along with my creative and crafty husband, we decided to simulate a longer vacation via this picture montage:

Who can take our picture at midnight? Us!

Carolyn & Ricky

We managed to get a picture  of all three of us, but it wasn’t easy (it seems that most people who are still awake past midnight at Disney World don’t speak English!)

Then things start to get a bit wacky…

A hat for all occasions

We thought by trying on different clothes we could make it seem like these weren’t all taken in the same night….think we succeeded?

Note to self - never put a swim cover-up on over clothing!

A quick trip to the toiletry aisle…

Prepared for anything!

And of course who could pass up the Mickey kitchen accessories?

I know you wouldn't be caught dead with this in your kitchen, Car!

And perhaps my favorite pic from the whole shoot:

Ah... a little shut eye after a great Disney day!

What do you need for a long drive home? Candy, Candy, Candy!!!!

Like kids in a candy store

Growing up in the 90’s baby!

I can’t thank my sweet friend enough for making the trip to Orlando to see us. We definitely made the most of the hours we had!
