Day 3 of vacation

We had a full day on Friday at the parks but it was a very successful day. My planning was paying off and everything went very smooth. Saturday was a down day for us that would include no parks. Instead, we had a restful morning and spent the afternoon and evening at downtown disney.


The giraffe that greeted us when we woke up



Ben went from the bed to this chair every morning to see outside



Jack followed him



Since the hotel we stayed at was African themed, there were lots of instruments for Ben to play with. He spent about 30 minutes playing these drums after breakfast.





He got a wooden flute



He also got his mickey ears



He insisted that the string went right under tip of his chin



After lunch, he wanted to show us what he ate



He also wanted to make dad wear the ears



and the helmet



Then Ben and dad built a light saber together





Drew couldn't figure it out so we had to ask for help



Ben was excited when it was finished. The next morning I asked him if he and dad built a light saber together and he said to me, "No dad did it. Dad did it all by himself."



We all shared a rice crispie treat covered with chocolate and sprinkles. It was delicious.



Some people hogged it



We ate dinner at a restaurant called T-Rex. It was all dinosaur themed and had huge dinosaurs throughout the restaurant that moved. Every 20 minutes, there was a meteor shower. You will have to wait and see the video of it.



You wouldn't know it by the pictures but Jack was with us all day







Ben got dessert and a nice "happy birthday" song



Before we left, Ben built a dinosaur. He picked out a triceratops.
