Lilo and Stitch...what kind of kid would like that ride?!!


Yesterday we went to the most fabulous and happiest place on earth...THE MAGIC KINGDOM!! The whole family was so excited to get there. The weather was clear and hot and we were ready for a day packed with excitement! After taking alot of pictures at the entrance and of Cinderella's castle, and also Jantsen meeting Pinnochio, finally we made it to our first stop, Tomorrow-Land and we went on the Buzz Lightyear ride. Jantsen had a fun time shooting all of Emperor Zurg and his group of evil aliens! Our next stop was the biggest mistake of the trip. We went to the Lilo and Stitch ride (I totally wouldn't even call it a ride...it was awful!!) They strap you in and make it seem like you are going to move on this ride, but really they just strap you in, turn off all the lights, play loud noises, spray water on you, make it all smell disgusting, and then scare all the kids and then finally let you off and send you on your way. One small funny thing was as we were walking out of the ride and Kyle was holding Jantsen, Jantsen was crying on Kyle's shoulder and then looked up at him and said "Dad, that ride ruined my life." Kade and Kyle couldn't help but laugh. But really, it was the DUMBEST ride ever. It also scared Jantsen so bad that he didn't want to do anything for about 3 hours because he was afraid that the ride was going to be scary. We waited in line for Peter Pan and right at the last moment he chickened out. But I can't blame him, that Lilo and Stitch ride would scare any kid and was lame for adults!! DON'T GO ON THAT RIDE!!!
Finally the ride that cured him was "It's A Small World". We literally had to force him to sit on this ride, but at the end he had stopped crying and told us that he didn't know that it was going to be "a happy ride". He was fine for the rest of the day. Yeah!! His favorite rides at the end of the day were Thunder-Mountain Railroad roller coaster and Splash Mountain. And because of having to baby swap the little girls, he was able to go on each ride at least twice. Kindof crazy that he was so scared to even go on Peter Pan but was loving going on the big roller coasters. I am just glad that we cured him! Kambryn loved going on all the small rides. "It's A Small World" was by far her favorite ride. Hopefully tomorrow, at Animal Kingdom, will be another great day with no problems with any of the rides!

Looks like you guys had a great time! I want to go there so bad with my girls. Lexi misses Jantsen so much and talks about her boyfriends all the time. You guys really need to come visit us. Hope all is well at the green!

looks like a blast. Dylan is always talking about Jantsen and asking when all his friends will come visit him. It is hard explaining all his omaha friends are in different place and far away from us. I can't wait until we can take a trip to disney world or disney land. Talk to you later!

That is a funny story!! Jantsen seriously says the funniest things! "That ride ruined my life!" What a funny kid! It sounds like you guys are having a blast except of coarse for the Lilo and Stitch ride. Don't go on that again!:)
