The Koles Take Disney: Prologue PLUS Days 1-3

Grandma and Grandpa surprised Scott, me, Jen and Paul with our Disney trip while we were in Florida for Spring Break and then a while after we got home, they surprised the kiddos with the news about the trip! 

they got stockings full of disney themed things and they finally guessed what it was!! I think they were *slightly* excited!! !

the light show was so hard to catch on camera – but here’s a good shot of the castle as a gingerbread house

the best part was when elsa made the castle turn to ice and syd just gasped and whispered…’she really IS real’ …so so so incredibly sweet!

(it did look pretty real though)
