My Mom, sister, Karisa, and I really love our Disney treats!








For the second year in a row, I was cast as an extra in the Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular! That is me making my grand entrance to the stage!









The enthusiastic extras practicing for the big show! I'm such a dork! LOL!










Yours truly doing my part in the show!

Love this picture of Mark and I! We love our roller coasters!

My adorable little chipmunk!









Grandma Cindy and Keira got a little tired! LOL!





Mark and the kids became secret agents and joined Team Possible (based on the Disney Channel animated series, Kim Possible)! Their mission was to help save the world from super-villains! They received a cell-phone like device that gave them clues through their mission! Each country had their own mission so Mark and the kids spent lots of time doing this. They loved doing this!







While Mark and the kids were doing their secret agent missions, My mom, sister and I had a mission of our own. Our mission was to eat our way through the different countries in the World Showcase! The Epcot Food & Wine Festival was going on so there were a ton of extra food booths everywhere (the smell was awesome)! Our first food mission, France, where we enjoyed chocolate crepes!







Our second mission, Belgium, for a small belgium waffle with fruit and whipped cream!






Keira missed out on all the food as she was on a mission of her own, nap time!



Our third mission, Norway, for some school bread (sweet donut like pastry filled with vanilla custard)! We couldn't get enough of this stuff and walked away with eating more than one each!

World's Largest Entertainment McDonald's & PlayPlace

Orlando, Florida
Fall Break: Day 2


This Mickey D's is two stories high and looks like a big fry box!


The kids thought this was the best McDonald's ever and the adults thought it was the most expensive Mickey D's ever! LOL!

The Hamburglar and the Grimace aka Karlie and Keira!


My Mom and I chillin' with Ronald McDonald!



This Mickey D's has over 100 arcade games and an awesome tree house playplace with lots of mazes, tubes and slides. I thought we were never going to get the kids out of this place!




Besides the regular McDonald's menu items, this Mickey's D's also offered a bistro gourmet menu! Don't those desserts look yummy!





Who would of thought a McDonald's would serve anything else besides burgers and fries?!


If you are ever in Orlando, you've gotta check this place out! It was for sure the most unique Mickey D's we had ever been to!
