A Very Disney Honeymoon

It's been almost two weeks since we got back from our honeymoon, so I figured it was about time to post a few pictures. Disney World was a-mazing, and going through all these pictures has made me miss it already! We stayed at the BoardWalk Inn, which was so nice, and we were spoiled with a king size bed. We have a queen at home, and for the first couple of nights back we were both annoyed with each other for taking up too much room :)




These were our "Just Married" buttons. We got them when we checked into our hotel, and they got us hooked up. We wore them everyday, and all the park employees, and even random people, would come up to us and say "Congratulations" and ask how long we'd been married. We got to go to the front of the line on some of the rides, and we even got free food once. It was awesome! We felt so special all week.



Like the 3D glasses? We rode so many awesome rides and ate at some incredible restaurants while we were at the park. Disney World really was the perfect place to honeymoon because there was so much to do, and we didn't have to do too much if we didn't want to. This picture is from Mickey's PhilharMagic.



Here we are waiting for our dinner at Cinderella Castle! Our Just Married Buttons got us hooked up, and we had one of the best tables in the house. We sat right by the window at the front of the castle, and we had a great view of the Carousel and part of the Magic Kingdom.



The park was decorated so cute for Christmas! I had heard Disney goes all out for the holidays, and the park was covered with lights and wreaths and all sorts of Christmas stuff. They must leave them up for a while because everything was still up when we left on January 6.



We gave our best "tired" face to the camera. As much fun as the trip was, it was exhausting! We walked everywhere all day. New Year's Eve was especially exhausting because we had to get to the park pretty early and stay there. From what the employees told us, New Year's Eve is the busiest day at Disney World, and they shut the parks down at capacity mid-day because there are just so many people. On New Year's Eve day the park was packed; everyone was literally shoulder-to-shoulder. New Year's at Disney World was incredible, though! There was an amazing fireworks display!


This picture is from our dinner at Victoria and Albert's! Victoria and Albert's is located inside the nicest hotel in Disney World, and it's the only five-star restaurant in Florida. Brendan couldn't even get in unless he wore a suit. We ate a six-course meal, which was in-credible. I'm not even sure what some of the stuff I ate was, but it tasted good!



I promise we did *not* wear these around, but I had to get a picture with them. We saw a lot of couples wearing the top hat and veil around the park, but that sure wasn't for us. It just seems like saying, "Look at me! Talk to me! I just got married!" But they are kinda cute.



We had so so much fun on our honeymoon, and we can't wait to go back to Disney World some day. It kind of calls to you. But life here in Abilene is pretty awesome, too.
