Spring Break 2017 Continued:

Disneyland Paris - Day 1


On the Magical Shuttle to get to the park

Poor Whitney's head got cut off every time!



Whitney had to get her Minnie ears!




Lunch and a show - Star Wars



We told Connor this was Drivers Ed for him



The parade was crazy!  My gang wasn't interested in fighting the crowds to watch all the floats go by.


We went to get a snack instead!


Looking at everything we did for the day and mapping out what to do tomorrow!!

Dinner after a really, really long day!

Disneyland was really beautiful at night!!!


This year was Disneyland Paris' 25th year anniversary



Disneyland Paris - Day 2

Hanging out at the hotel before catching the shuttle to the park

Can you see the age difference here?


That chick totally photo bombed us!

The guys are on the roller coaster ride while Whitney and I were on the dog ride! :)

Loving it!!


Ratatouille was everyone's favorite!  Such a cool ride - you really feel like you're a little mouse.




The boys took an elevator to the 13th floor of this building and then fell straight down!

Whitney and I hung out with the storm troopers instead!


Five Guys burgers!!

Last night to enjoy the pool.  This time only Whitney would go.  She didn't want to leave!

One last breakfast at the buffet
After breakfast we went on a walk around the lake outside our hotel

Such a cutie pie!

Bon Voyage Paris!
We finished off the break by watching Smurfs 4 in 3D after we got back home

And it wouldn't be spring break if we didn't take advantage of the beautiful weather to do some yard work!

Spring Break 2017

Our long awaited, much anticipated spring break trip finally arrived!!!  
We finally agreed to take the kids to Disneyland Paris.  This was a trip that we should have done about 5-6 years ago... but, better late than never!!

We had to get up very early to catch a 630am flight.


PARIS!!!
(Can you see the Eiffel Tower??)


Finally.... breakfast!! 

We hired a driver to take us straight to the Eiffel Tower.  Somehow we had all been there before except for Aiden.  He's the only one who never got to go to Paris before and this was on his bucket list!

It was an absolutely beautiful day!!!





Since Connor has the longest arms we used him as our selfie stick


One can never have too many Eiffel Tower pics!! :)

Delicious French lunch

Seine River

Walking down Champs Elysees

Made it to the Arc de Triomphe 



The eternal flame for the unknown soldier

Very detailed art work

We enjoyed some street entertainment

Our driver picked us up right in the round about to go back to the airport to get our bags

One last train ride until we finally made it to our hotel

We made it!!!
Exploring our room

Exploring the rest of the hotel



The boys weren't allowed to swim without tight, almost speedo-type swimsuits.  They weren't very happy about it!


Doesn't he look thrilled!!


See the long line of girls waiting to go on the slide.  It was mostly all girls in the pool because none of the boys had the required suits.
Dinner at the buffet. The kids all agreed that the hotel was just like the cruise boat! lol!

Tomorrow.... Disney!!!
