Day 2 at Disneyworld

We didn't have any plans today when we woke up (I think that's the best part of the trip so far). We ate breakfast and decided to go to Epcot since it is Saturday. We thought the other parks are more popular so we would have a smaller crowd there. These Disneyworld folks have it totally together. They never cease to amaze me...this is what we found when we first entered the park. All the characters made of "flowers" for a flower event!! Amazing!!We went straight to the Nemo ride since we knew that Teague would like it and recognize the characters. The Nemo ride was great, but he had no interest sitting on the floor to listen to "crush" the turtle and just wanted to run around and look at all the exhibits (fish tanks, manatees, etc.) just like the older kids do. There is so much here to look at. It's never dull.Wow! Crazy! Amazing!! Whoa! Look! Awww!Jerrod took the older kids to ride Soarin'. I hated to miss it, because it is GREAT!Tonight we had tickets to Mickey's Backyard Barbeque at Fort Wilderness Campground. This is the first time we have ever done this and let me tell you, it is a good time. They have a band that sings country and western music (current, theoldies but goodies, and pretty good too!) and offer the traditional barbeque items, cold novelties for dessert and even beer and wine!! There was also a man that is a professional roper and he did all kinds of tricks for the kids and then the characters come out and dance with everyone. It is hilarious... Teague was dancing while he was eating and couldn't wait to get out on the floor for some fun. Jackson wanted to practice his new dance moves that consist of all kinds of jirations all on one foot (don't know where it came from but will make you crack up!) and Emma liked dancing with Teague. Bailey did a little dancing but I already see the "brakes" being put on for being goofy, etc. She is getting bigger but still really enjoys seeing everyone else dancing and having a good time.This was a favorite of mine. Someone how I caught him with his foot "down" so he looks like he is trying to imitate his granddad's dancing. If you look really closely, he still has chocolate all over his face from the ice cream he ate for dessert. One man even tapped me on the shoulder and said, "he has some moves but I especially love the chocolate moustache"!! Good times, good times.

Gideon saw some of the Nemo pictures (Nemo is his favorite) and kept yelling "NEMO MAMA" fun fun! BTW, love the last pic of Jackson too cute!

Oh my goodness... that absolutely CRACKS me up. He does dance just like his GrandDad. Think of all the poor girls at dances and proms [I can definitely sympathize!] It looks like you guys are having an absolute blast and Teague is the perfect age for all of this!
