Epcot


We made a last minute decision to head out to Epcot on Sunday. Kolton had never been there and I hadn't been in ages!

Kolton and I drove to the Hunter's house and rode with them. It's always an experience in a vehicle with all little boys, ages almost two to almost six. Kolton and Josh were sitting in the very back talking nonstop all the way there. I got to sit next to Lukey Fresh in the middle...and we watched Clifford the Big Red Dog on our ride :).

We got there early enough that we didn't even need to ride the tram up to the front. The day was starting very well! Dave and Alicia have it figured out...the first thing they did was get two double strollers. Our crazy boys who have no problem running all over the place always decide that their "legs hurt". WHAT? Seriously...

Anyway, Kolton and Josh got to ride the test track twice. The first time I waited in line with the two of them. They are insane. I asked them if they had sugar for breakfast (or speed?). They were like two little monkeys. We finally made it onto the ride and Kolton was a little unsure about it. The only part he didn't like was when they tell you to turn your lights on in the tunnel and yours don't turn on and the big rig comes at you! He liked everything else! The next time they rode with Mr. Dave and had the fast passes. I actually had to make Kolton go. He told me he'd let me know when he wanted to ride again! It was his last opportunity so I think going with Mr. Dave made the difference!
I think Kolton's favorite ride was Living with the Land...Aunt Nini will be proud. I have to say it is pretty cool...we got to see Mickey shaped bell peppers!










After that we were able to use the fast passes to go on Soarin'. How cool is that?! Feels like your flying! Kolton liked that one all the way to the end...then you're at Disney and the fireworks go off. He's got such sensitive ears and he wasn't prepared for the loudness BUT other than that it was great!We also made it on the NEMO ride and every single playground that we passed. We walked through the countries and rode a troll ride in Norway. The adults were drooling over the huge frozen drinks we saw everyone else drinking...but at $9 each we weren't sure it was worth it...with the kids and all! Actually we probably should have done that first!!


We had a great day...and a long one! I put Kolton to bed at 8:30 again and then I couldn't get him out of the bed this morning!
