Christmas Eve was the last day for Melissa, Dwayne, Karlee and Trevor so we woke up that morning and opened up Christmas gifts.
The kids had a great time, the babies (Tylor and James) figured out how to unwrap gifts
and then everyone decorated the $8 Christmas Tree i got a Target (love target!).
We let the kids have an easy day, enjoy their news toys and take an early nap because we decided to try out Disney World a different way - at night.
We loaded into the car around 3pm after everyone with flights was delivered to the airport and arrived to Epcot (the only park we had left to do) just as people were piling into their cars with cranky and already asleep kids.
We had dinner reservations at Little Mexico but first took the tour.
On the way out we found Donald which was one of the few characters we hadn't said hi to yet.
Tylor loved him and the professional photographer got a great shot of him thrilled to be hanging out with the life size stuffed animal.
After dinner we went to the Nemo ride which everyone loved because it ended up having a mini aquarium even with Dolphins swimming around.
The plan was to stay long enough to finally see one of the nightly firework shows, Epcot is the earliest which started at 9:30. Tanner found and sleighed a troll, then we headed off to find a spot for the show.
Tylor fell asleep just before the show started, slept the full 20 minutes while the firecrackers went off then at the end, when everyone around us was cheering he woke up and looked at me like - what's all the commotion about? It's ok - he was super cute in his antlers (when he actually kept them on).
And not to be forgotten, Tylor is 8 months old...
