Make A Wish!

Yes I am posting 2 blogs in one day just to catch up on all the excitement this summer has held so far.
    May 22nd through the 28th. Steven, Rylan and I loaded up and headed for our fun filled trip to Orlando.  Make A Wish had us picked up in a limo at our house to take us to the airport

So we load up and head to the airport where things seemed to run perfect....we got through the gate quick and then we received a preboard pass....which was nice...

loaded on the airplane..it was too early for rylan

 The flight attendants were amazing to us.....the even gave Rylan his wings for flying for the first time!

Well after our 3 hour layover in Chicago we finally made it to Orlando where we were greeted by the cutest Give kids the world greeters

They were holding up the sign with a luggage cart for us..and helped us get our luggage and our rental car. It was late and I got a little frustrated cause we were told we needed to go to give kids the world to check in before we go to our hotel......well we did and it was neat cause they had dinner for us when we arrived......

the main building at give kids the world

We ate and checked in...we were given the orientation there as well as a huge bag of toys and books for Rylan.......then we headed to our hotel.....and crashed.

Rylan Loved his Spongebob room

The next morning we got up and headed over to Give kids the world for breakfast.

Give Kids The world has so many amazing things for the kids.....one of them is they can make a pillow just for them.....so after breakfast we headed to the pillow tree and then to put his star on the roof of the castle

As we were heading to go to Disney we stopped and said hello to goofy and pluto.
 We arrived at Disney and decided to start our hour long adventure to get into the magic kingdom.......

in line for the ferry

well after a long day of rides sight seeing it was time to head out

having a blast!

done for the day

So we headed home and Rylan passed out.......so he missed the super cool sliming

When he woke up we went to dinner and got in line for the much anticipated event! MEETING SPONGEBOB!!!!!!!

The next morning we all had to get up early because we had reservations at the nick toons cafe for the character breakfast....this was one of the coolest things ever! They had all the characters come to the table and say Hi to Rylan..they even danced for him! It was a shame Rylan was a grump the whole time!

we even said Hi to spongebob again!

Then we headed over to Disney Hollywood Studios which was kinda a let down because we really couldn't ride any of the rides since they were all 3D and that is a big NO NO for epileptics.....but we were able to say hi to Mickey, pooh and the Incredibles. Rylan hated everyone.....

Since it was a short day we went for some ice cream at give kids the world and went back to the room to relax

our non-stop free ice cream

the boys relaxing

I was kinda glad we took that evening to relax....Rylan was starting to act strange from all the over-stimulation.
   The next day we decided to venture to universal studios. Steven and I thought the Island of Adventure had more for Rylan so we started out there.

 Rylan loved the Dr. Suess area. The people at Universal are amazing and took us behind a building to give us a private one on one with the cat in the hat, sam i am, the grinch, and thing 1 and thing 2!

After lunch we decided to go to the regular universal. We didnt stay long but Rylan was able to flirt with betty boop.....and we got to say hello to the simpsons....where i got fingered in the ear by bart.

The next day we decided to do sea world. Rylan was not found of it. He did like the dolphins and the shamu show at least.

our thing 1 and thing 2 shirts!

Even Steven was having fun!

When we left sea world we relaxed and went to the mall at the nick hotel to watch a spongebob show! Rylan loved it!

so much focus!

Afterward we headed over to GKTW because they were having christmas! So we went and saw santa where Rylan got to pick a gift afterward....watched a parade and danced in the snow! This was a very cool thing to experience......you see all the kids glowing with excitement and everyone is soo happy! There were no negative vibes it was amazing!

The next day was our official last day there....so we wanted to relax. We were able to say Hi to Curious George and the Man in the yellow hat.

Rylan LOVED George

And I was even able to take this last day to see my cousin and her girls!

The next day we headed out at 4 am. But it was great to say that Rylan got to experience all he did this trip and its a memory that will stay with Steven and I for a LONG time.
