We are back from our first Disney adventure of the season. We had fun as always and we got a nice visit with Mamaw and Papaw Kendall, too. This trip had some ups and downs. First, the ups. The weather was fantastic. Warm enough to wear shorts but cool enough that you weren't all sweaty. The crowds were very light. We never had more than a 5 minute wait at any ride and most of the time we walked right on. (Zandria, this was the first trip we have had where the Crowd Calendar was way off. They had Epcot with crowd levels at 8 & 9 and it was the lightest crowd we have ever seen at Epcot during Food and Wine.) Lastly, the boys were so well behaved at the parks and so excited about everything. That makes the trip so much fun for all of us.
Now, the downs. We were all sick with colds. Still, better to be sick at Disney than sick at home. Eli got an upset stomach one night and that meant neither he nor I got much sleep that night. And finally, I broke a finger the first night we were there. Eli was refusing to stay in bed and I was retrieving him over and over again and putting him back down. It was dark and my depth perception was off and I smacked my hand into the bed frame hard enough to break my pinkie finger. Now the first knuckle droops just like the finger beside it that I broke in the Army. No hand modeling gigs for me.
Like all trips, we tried a new place to eat and met a new character. We didn't ride any new rides this time but we did ride some rides we hadn't been on in a while. We spent quite a bit of time in Epcot for the Food and Wine Festival which was delicious. More pictures are forthcoming.

I heard they've brought back the sword in the stone actually lifting up occasionally again. Did you have any luck with it?
I heard that, too. We didn't get it to lift, though. Sean kept wanting to push it down anyway :)
