Part 3 - Disney!

 Aiden trying to look like the aliens while waiting to meet the two and only....BUZZ and WOODY!!!

 And it FINALLY happened!  Live...right there in person!  Can you believe it!  Buzz and Woody!!!  The week could have ended here....but of course it didn't!

 Nate took Woody a High Point police patch....too cute!

 Of course we had to get a picture next to the Fleming sign.  Aiden's faces crack me up.

 The boys told Snow White all about the dinosaurs and pirates...but she said there are no dinos or pirates where she comes from.  They are too scary!  So witches with poisonous apples aren't too scary for her??

 Getting ready for the boys pirate dress up and later Miss Hannah's princess experience.  The all loved it!

 Aiden taking the pirates oath.

 Here's Henry Darkgrin....so mean!!

 Max transformed into Jake from the Neverland Pirates!  Guess what Max is going to be for Halloween?!  Two for one!!

 And last but not least...here's Benjamin Wavewrecker....arrrgghhh!

 And beautiful Belle herself!

 And of course they had to play the part....all day long!

We finished out the day with amazing fireworks and light show.  Not to long afterwards they were dead to the world.  Funny trying to get them on the bus.  They were exhausted...and so were we!

Part 2 of Disney - Magic Kingdom

Here we are...at the happiest place on earth!  I know some of you may think we're geeky for getting 'Disny-fied', but the kids loved it and so did we!  If you can't get geeky at Disney...where can you?  haha!  We had a blast and already can't wait for our next trip.  The memories are priceless!

 The Flemings (minus 1) and McNeals - Disney 2012

We made the shirts.  Super easy!  Get some wonder under, fabric of choice, design of your choice - iron on and sew around the edges.  Can't get much easier than that!  Think of the possibilities for birthday shirts, holiday shirts....can't wait to make more for the boys!

 Can you just hear his giggle!?  I love this pic...even if it's a little blurred...makes you feel like you are on the ride still...

 Do you think they are having a good time??

 You can't go to Disney and NOT ride Dumbo! 

 Friends from the beginning....two peas in a pod...

 Getting ready to ride the Great Goofini!  A roller coaster the perfect size for Max.

 Even before this trip, the boys have been pretty consistent that they are going to be race car drivers.  (Hence Max's race car birthday in a few days).  So of course we COULD NOT pass up the Grand Prix!

 Where's Max???

 There he is!!!  Look closely!

 Dreams do come true!  Never stop dreaming!

Post 1 of DISNEY!!!

As promised to many friends and family members...here come the Disney pics!!  As we have 1000 pictures I won't bore you with all the details of our trip, but I have picked out a few to give you the highlights!  Definitely one of the highlights in my mind will be the look on their faces each time we saw something new and hearing those cute little voices saying "Dreams DO come true!" from the back of the van as we drove up to our hotel.  This trip was A TON of fun.  All four kids are so deserving and they were very appreciative!  I know I am biased...but I think these 4 kids are some of the best!  I couldn't have been any prouder of any of them with the way they acted during the whole trip...even when they were wiped out.  So...without further delay...here's DISNEY!!!  The most magical place on earth!!!

All our bags packed and ready to load into the Suburban! I think we did pretty good.  Oh...there were 3 strollers on top of this...

 Here we are the train station in Raleigh to go to the 'cabin'.  The kids didn't know until the next morning where we were ACTUALLY going.  When we finally told them, they were in shock.  They didn't believe us at first...they just stared and said "are you serious?", but when it sank in they were super excited!  Our first day was spent around the resort swimming and just hanging out.  Getting ready for the busy days ahead!

 We're HERE!!!  First park...Animal Kingdom!  and the kids had to sport their handmade shirts from yours truly.  The kids looked super cute and we had compliments all day long!  They were very easy to make :) 

 Poor Max didn't quite make the minimum height requirement for some rides...as you can see he was within less of 1/4 inch.  Don't worry...he magically grew overnight (haha) and was able to ride the rides the remainder of the week.  He had 'special shoes' :)

 One of our favorite shows...Finding Nemo.  It's hard to get good pics...but at least you can see a little of the amazing costumes.  It was awesome!

 Max couldn't quite make it back to the hotel and because of this little nap, he didn't rest later.  Not to worry...his batteries charge pretty fast and he was ready to go!

 The boys at the Tree of Life.  Such cute brothers...

 For the 2nd half of the day we went to Magic Kingdom.  The kids got a sneak peek and couldn't wait to go back on another day!

 Day 2 started off really early!  Chef Mickey's at 7 am...which means an early start with transportation and all.  Amazingly, the boys didn't mind the early morning at all!

 On our way to Epcot!  A little time with my man!

 Lucky for us, all the flowers were in bloom at Epcot.  They are absolutely amazing!!!

 Max showing his true personality!  It's so terrible that he doesn't have a sense of humor!

Hannah holding up the HUGE golf ball!  I don't have pics of Miss Hannah's character breakfast, but she started her day off with all the princesses at the Akershus Royal Banquet Hall and even got her picture with Belle (one of her favorites)!!

I'm terribly slack on posting pics!  But I will be posting some pics of our Disney trip this week.  In the mean time, here are a few pictures of Reid and his visit to Nana Jane and Pap Pap while we were at the most magical place on earth.  We missed him terribly, but at the same time LOVED our time with the older boys.  And they loved getting to do 'big boy' stuff.  Reid won't be too far behind them.  He's trying his best to keep up with them...he's already fast at crawling and pulling himself up on anything and everything.  So needless to say, it's a little busy at out house these days!!

Reid and Great Pap Smith...ages 8 months and almost 94 years old.  He's the youngest 94 year old I know!!

Miss Liea taking great care of her little cousin.  He won't be little too much longer!
