Last day at the Beach Club

We started with a character breakfast, I love all Disney breakfasts!!
We were so excited to explore the pool area of the Beach Club on our last day. Both kids LOVED the water slide, I think it was actually good we didn't discover it earlier in the week or we would not have gotten them away from it!
Our last Mickey ice creams

Hollywood Studies

Moments into arriving at Hollywood Studios the kids asked Grampy if they could get their faces painted....
Then we were able to see the character we had been waiting for our entire trip, Jake from Jake and the Neverland Pirates!!! Just ask the kids about their trip to Disney, they are sure to mention Jake. Jake wanted his face painted like Charlie.
Toy Story ride, thank goodness for the fast pass on this one, the line was almost 2 hours long!
We were all exhausted by this point but I do think it was the kids favorite park all because of Jake.

Christmas Eve/Day!!!

So much to post about still between finishing Disney and the kids highlight meeting "Jake" but I have Christmas on the mind so we will start here. The Fredo Christmas eve tradition continued with lots of fun for all.
Nani's old punch bowl was a hit.....
....well for most, the Kramer kids don't do soda even in a yummy punch!(This seems wrong doesn't it?)
Michelle cheered with water.

Epcot

Epcot was an especially memorable day as we got to meet Michaela at a princess luncheon! First we had breakfast at the adjoining Yacht Club restaurant where the Christmas decorations were beautiful (our hotel was fabulous too but we really loved the look of the Yacht Club).
Then we headed to the boat to Epcot, which is funny because the walk to Epcot was so short, but hey we didn't know!
Charlie practiced a few Power Ranger moves along the way!
Duffy and Mickey, :-).I will say they were the hit of the entire vacation and came with us everywhere they were allowed.
A family picture.
Then it was time for lunch with Michaela and the princesses!!!
Charlie was not sure about the other princesses but he did become smitten with Snow White.
It makes me laugh seeing Michelle do a model wave in all of the parades!
I truly underestimated the power of Duffy coloring stations, the kids loved it.
Turns out the day was exhausting for everyone.
