Day 10 - Our last day...

What another gorgeous day we woke up to! Since we wanted to get on the road by 4, we decided to walk to Epcot again. We wanted to soak up as much as we could in the last few hours. We have a spectacular view... just lush green landscaping and well maintained buildings... it is so clean, and looks brand new. We noticed that they paint all the time too. If there is a purple sign, they make sure that it looks freshly painted and clean. I guess that is why Disney is in a whole other league. Its just incredible.

Ty is chillin...

Here I am at 10am with a glass of wine :)

IT was really hot, and Ty was in rare form. We had some time-out moments...

Here is Tyler and I in Japan before it gets REAL interesting...

As most toddlers do, haha they was a meltdown that landed him in time-out in Japan. I tried to tuck us back on the side of a building where there were some steps. Tyler was SO upset, but I had to be firm, so I had to really "hold" him in time out. He was screaming and crying, just really upset. We were out of the way, but this sweet Japanese lady was working the Kaki-Gori (shaved ice treat) stand was watching. So when he had calmed down, we talked about what happened. He said so sincerely and sweetly and loud enough that everyone heard. "I am very sorry Mommy, I promise to be good, I love you Mommy... can I have ice cream now?" Everyone thought it was the cutest thing, but I knew what he was up to! haha So as we walked by, the Japanese lady asked Tim if he could have a Kaki-Gori because he was so cute. Did I feel like the bad guy or what?! haha Against our better judgement, we said it was ok, and the sweet Japanese lady asked what flavor he would like... He very proudly exclaimed "I think I really like a pink one." haha
Here is Tyler and Daddy, we are all happy again... You can see his pink Kaki-Gori :)

Tyler LOVED the trains... wherever we went, if their were trains, he was so happy...
Here we are at the United States Pavilion...
You can just see the joy in his face :)

Here is the gingerbread house for the US pavilion

What it took to make it

On the way out, we ran into some friends...

Tyler had them all to himself...what a great way to end a spectacular trip!

Hi fives all around


Back to the Boardwalk...Tim went back into the DVC office :)

First week of December... here is the temp as we were heading out...

On our way out, we stopped at Downtown Disney to get some last minutes gifts... one of which was The Goofy Candy Company to get some special hand dipped rice crispy treats to take home for our family. It was so cool! They blew a whistle and declared that it was Celebration Parade time! They got our hats and music instruments and all the children got to march in a parade around the store... Tyler got the drums and he took this job very seriously. He LOVES music, so this was perfect!
He marched around with the other children for a while, but later decided he liked doing it on his own.


He got lots of smiles from people all around...
He put on his own little show...haha

PRECIOUS!

Tyler got a "Year of a Million Dreams" Certificate and he was just adorable.
One more picture at Downtown Disney...with Pooh bear!

We gathered all of our stuff, said our last goodbyes..or rather... "TTFN and SEE ya real soon!" and were on our way to Georgia...
We had such a magical, INCREDIBLE time... we CANNOT WAIT to go back and are planning to in the near future.
"When you wish upon a star..." right?!

Up next... the journey home and last minute thoughts...
