May the Force Be With You at Disney



With school out and ballet and piano done for the year, what else can one do but go join the Imperial Army. Wait, are those the bad or good guys? I'm not too savvy on my Star Wars so let me just spew out a few words I know: Jaba, May the Force be with you, Solo, Yoda, Nano-Nano. One of those may be from Mork but you get the point. We were off to Disney's Star Wars weekend. Even for the not so EXTREME lovers of the series, this is a great show. When we were walking in the bad guys with masks (it's hard to see them as bad guys because they ARE in white.) were patrolling the entrance and pointed to Mike and said they were keeping an eye one him. Nothing looks more suspicious then a man  pushing a stroller of triplets and walking next to two Tweenagers. 
     Golden got to have a cool experience. He got himself carbon frozen just like Han Solo did. They took his 360 degree picture and gave him a bracelet afterwards and told him he would be tracked from now on. And if it turned red, Darth Vader himself would be after him. 




All of the famous Star Wars characters were there and even the voices of the Star Wars cartoons showed up. Mike and Golden were very impressed. I thought the Darth Mall guy was pretty cool. 




Even Carlos got into the groove with his Star Wars gun which we got at the Darth Mall. A 10,000 square foot mall filled with everything you never knew you needed Star Wars related. 

The Guerra's joined us for the weekend and much more my style we visited the Blizzard Beach and rented a cabana. I think we got ourselves some more water babies. 




The babies were exhausted from all their play and Carlos just couldn't look cuter. Laying on uncle Juan he slept with his little hands in the shape of a heart. Thanks Juan for that image.







We made it back to Hogwarts.

And made it back to Animal Kingdom safari

Look at that long tongue

I just love giraffe markings



I made monkey noises and more man looked over. I think I might have said something vulgar the way he is looking at me.


My kids growing up before my eyes at the tree of life.

The triplets are now walking, dancing, eating machines. Gigi likes to wear crocs and gets down to the music. She can point to her hair, belly button and nose when asked in Spanish. She loves books. And when Mike get's his shoes on in the morning she will back up between his legs to watch him do it.
Beau steals everyone's milk bottles. She loves her daddy and her and Gisele love to sit in his lap whenever he comes home. If you get on the floor and scare her, her first response is to get down on her knees and drops forward head first like a possum playing dead. Actually, she uses her head as a battering ram most of the time. But she also loves to kiss and hug her stuffed animals and rubs Carlos' head (usually after she takes his toy and he is crying). 
Carlos loves his mommy and is not a morning guy until he has had his coffee (nursing). Otherwise, he is very mellow but is quick to smile and laugh with me. He likes to dance too. And with his solitary top left tooth and cool duds, he has what I call my Hillfiger Hillbilly look. 
Eva is obsessed with all things mermaid right now. So like her mother it hurts. And Golden is saying so many funny comments he keeps me and his dad in stitches. 
Can't wait for our next adventure!

  1. Oh man, Disney has a Star Wars weekend???? How cool!! The last time we went to Disney World, no one would even walk by the Star Wars exhibit with me. I felt so alone in the world. We should have gone with you guys instead of my in-laws!
