Day 1 - Disney Dream Cruise

Sunday morning, we met Pop, Nani & Knox in the hotel restaurant for breakfast.  After breakfast, we headed to the airport to meet up with the Serios and take the Disney Magical Express Bus to the Cruise Ship in Port Canaveral, Florida.  Since it was St. Patrick's Day, we all wore green to celebrate!

By noon, we were on the ship and ready to play!  We ate lunch, then headed to the pool.  The first thing Reed wanted to do was ride the Aqua Duck, which is the big water slide that goes around the ship.  Then, all 3 boys headed to Nemo's Reef.  Luckily, there weren't many people on board yet, so they had Nemo's Reef pretty much to themselves!

Our Pop spoils us rotten! (At the hotel, waiting on airport shuttle)

Getting ready to board the Magical Express.

They are SO excited!

We had to squeeze in a quick family picture for St. Patrick's Day.

Reed couldn't wait to try out the yellow slide too.

There he goes...

Nemo's Reef was a blast!

All you could hear was sweet laughter coming from all 3 boys.

Here comes Knox going down for the first time.

Chase wasn't quite tall enough for the slide, but luckily, the guy let him go down it since he was tall enough when standing on his toes!

Trying to get a pic of the boys...

They were way too excited!

Chase, Reed & Knox...happy boys!!

Waiting for the party to start.

The boys were so excited to see Mickey & Minnie!

Chip & Dale were a big hit for Reed, and Chase loved Pluto.

We ate an Animation Palace the first night and loved it!

The restaurant had tv screens behind each table.  During our meal, Crush (the sea turtle from Finding Nemo) came on the screen behind our table and talked to the boys.  It was really cool!  

Crush had us all dancing and saying things like "Totally, Awesome..."

Reed loved this part of the meal.

Chase had to throw some dance moves in too!

Uncle Joe, Aunt Candice & Lexi

Mickey Mouse ice cream...YUM!

After dinner, we had to take a few pictures.

As we rounded the corner, there was Donald Duck! Chase wanted to get his picture made with Donald, as long as I held him.

Look at those smiles

Then, we found Goofy!!

A quick picture, then we headed to bed because Monday morning, we were going to wake up in the Bahamas!
