Day 1 Universal

We started our first morning with a walk around the Village. Since we had gotten in so late the night before, we didn't really get to see everything. The girls were so excited! We decided to take our time since it was the first day and we wanted to explore the Village, get unpacked, and meet up with Gigi and Grandude. We were so happy for them to be able to join us for our trip!
After some breakfast at the ice cream shop, we went to see Mickey Mouse who happened to be the character of the morning that was visiting the Village. Savannah was so excited to see him, but Skylar started crying immediately. We waited around for a few minutes to see if she would calm down, but she wasn't having it. So, she and Tyler went outside while Savannah got her picture made with Mickey. Skylar was still sad outside until they ran into Belle! She cheered right up. She was such a sweet Belle. After Gigi and Grandude arrived we spent some time on the playground. Savannah could have probably been perfectly happy to stay there all week. She is such a monkey and loves playgrounds. She can climb anything- even in Crocs.
 







Our whole plan to take it easy/rest and then head to Universal after naps kind of back fired. Skylar ended up throwing up (no reason, she just does sometimes) and having no nap and we chose the hottest time of day on the hottest day of our trip to head to our first amusement park. Yikes! It was so hot! It's October!? We had a couple rough few hours where I think Skylar was just so hot and so tired, but amazingly, we ended up having a blast. We found a really fun tree house type play area (Camp Jurassic) with fountains that the girls ended up loving.



Hot Skylar!




The girls playing in the fountain was definitely one of the highlights of the trip. They were running around and giggling and just genuinely having the best time! I didn't anticpate for them to get soaking wet while we were there, but it happened! They ended up riding home in just diapers. That's a fun day!
Look at this happy sweet face! Priceless..



Having a ball..


A fun end to our first day!
