Disney World
We planned this trip to Disney almost a year ago. So when the time came to actually go we were all pretty pumped with excitement. The first half of our trip was spent in a 1 bedroom condo which we received as a free vacation. The property of the place was very nice, but the condo we stayed in was old and very dated. We later found out at the time share presentation that they put us in the old promotional buildings and when we did the tour they showed us the new buildings and they were nice, but there are only 3 new buildings out of 18 so if we were to buy our chances of getting into a new building were slim to none. HEY it was a free 3 nights in Orlando. We suffered the 2 1/2 hour breakfast and tour and enjoyed the rest of our time there. After the condo we moved over to the Hilton on Disney property. It was so much nicer than even expected.
So during our trip we spent a day at Seaworld, 2 days at Magic Kingdom, and 1 day at Hollywood Studios. In previous blogs I sent video from our vacation of fun things we did. Below are pictures from our trip..

Out door games
The boys have been getting cabin fever the past couple days since it's started to get colder. But today has been gorgeous, 50 degrees and sunny. I'm from Northern NJ so this weather is typical fall weather, we just have to bundle up in jackets and hats. So the boys had their wish come true and got to play outside in the backyard for 30 minutes.
Our backyard is wonderful, our property is .45 an acre and the whole backyard is fenced in. We've collected a bunch of step two toys from holiday presents and donated from friends and neighbors so the boys have lots of play with. Their current favorite is a car table they can race and push hot wheels and matchbox cars. AND the best part is we bought them a whole bag of second hand toy cars that are known as the "outside cars"
I'm hoping we have another mild winter like last year so the boys have more outside time. I love watching them play together. Brandon was running up to trees and covering his eyes today counting (one two five...ready or not here I come) then running around looking for Peter. I'm not sure Peter knew he was even involved in a game of hide and go seek, but it was sure darn cute to watch!
Another game they love to play, but Mom and Dad do not like is sword fighting with sticks, in the end someone always ends up getting poked in the face and cries.
The last fun game they love to play is a game I like to call "chase me" We run after them shouting "I'm gonna get you" and they run away then once they get to the other side of the yard we pretend to be chased by them and they try to catch us. It burns a ton of energy.
The only way we are going to survive winter indoors is by me starting my pinterest page now with ideas for tons of indoor activities for a 1 year old and 2 year old!

Apple picking
We decided to start the first weekend of fall with some apple picking at Stribling Orchards. The kids had so much fun being lifted up to grab the apples. It also seemed like this year we came early enough that they had a lot of apple trees open to pick from. Last year we went at the end of the season and we got the last pickings. Here are some cute pictures from yesterday's adventure.

1st day of preschool
Brandon's at preschool right now. Here are some pictures from this morning. I wish I could've gotten a video of the two minute drive over to preschool. Brandon was chanting preschool open preschool open YAY! The only time he got nervous was in the hallway when we lined up. He just wanted to go to his classroom but we had to wait until the teachers already. Once they were ready we marched right to his classroom and he went in and the teacher showed him his cubby for his lunch box and backpack. He gave me a hug and a kiss and ran off to go play with the trains. So to not prolong it I said goodbye from across the room and walked out. He did not cry single tear. Coming from the kid who cried every single day in babysitting at the gym from six months until just a couple months ago. I am so proud of Brandon he is going to love preschool.

A good time in Williamsburg and James Town VA
We had a great time in Williamsburg VA. The time share condo was awesome. We had a 2 bedroom condo with a pullout sofa so everyone had there own room to sleep in. It was a great weekend. Here are some pictures from our trip. If I get time I'll go to the computer and caption the pictures.
