Giveaway winners & more vacation photos!

I know you all want to know who the giveaway winners are, so I won't delay. I didn't have very many entrants, so those who did enter had a very high chance of winning.

I used random.org to pick winners. These are the 2 names that were drawn:

#2 - Amber from Life Love Green

#4 - Cherees from Our New Life

Congrats, ladies! I've emailed both of you; be sure to respond within 48 hours of my email or I'll have to pick another name.

Okay, on to some more vacation photos. On our second day in Orlando, Jon and I went to Magic Kingdom, which is my favorite Disney park. When you arrive at the entrance, there are 2 ways to get into the park, since it's on an island - either on the ferry boat or on the monorail. Jon and I usually take the ferry because it has the perfect view of the castle, not to mention that the monorail kinda scares me a bit.


As we headed into the park, we ran smack into a parade. That's one of the reasons why I absolutely ♥ Magic Kingdom - there is always a parade or a show or a big character greeting happening.


Jon's been coming to Disney every year since he was a kid, so he knows all the rides. Since I've been to Disney with him 4 times now, I feel like I know them all, too! One of our favorites is the Haunted Mansion. This is the Horseless Carriage that stands guard outside the mansion.


This time, Jon had a great surprise for me - he had lunch reservations at Cinderella's Royal Table! That is the restaurant that is on the second level INSIDE the castle! I've wanted to go inside the castle ever since I was a little girl.



My camera battery died mid-afternoon, so I don't have any photos of the nighttime parade or the Summer Nightastic fireworks show. But come back tomorrow for some photos from lunch inside the castle!

And YAY Jon for getting to eat at Cinderella's table! What a fabulous 'spirit of the engagement' type suprise.
