Post Birthday fun w/ the grandparents!!

Posted by Kelly at 10:32 AM

When the grandparents come in town it is time to "play"!! That is usually when we go to Disney. Living and working there... well... I know people may think she should be shot for saying this,but... it DOES get old! In order to keep it "new" for the kids, we try to only go to Disney when family/friends are in from out of town or for special events.

So our first stop was Epcot to do some exploring and then dinner at the new T-Rex Cafe at Downtown Disney! It is owned by the same people as RainForest Cafe so it is a lot alike. The menu at T-Rex is MUCH better though!! Yummmmmmy!! If you have a dino lover.. this is the place to eat!!! My boy LOVED it and knew every dino name that he saw! There are animatronic dino's everywhere! They also have partnered up with Build a bear to do "build-a- dino"! It is quite a racket, but for one time special occasion... I would give in!

It was a bit chilly, but we bundled up!!

Looking at some robots at Epcot!

T-REX Cafe! The blue background is actually the "ice cave"! It changes colors through out your visit!! We were seated in the Ice Cave. Made my eyes go wiggy, but was still fun!

Making friends at T-Rex Cafe!


This was when the room was red. She isn't too sure about all this stuff?!

Here's the crew, minus me!! Okay for the sake of capturing a memory, I will "sacrifice" and take the picture!! (wink, wink!)
Next post-- we venture through the Animal Kingdom! Grrr!!

    we haven't been to the new T-Rex restaurant yet, but I think we will wait until the boys are a bit older. And we don't go to Disney very often either

    I can see where Disney would feel old since you live right there. We have an amusement park (Great America) not far from us at all (15 minutes) and we hardly ever go there!

    My boys would love the T-Rex place!

    Oh I love Disney! I wish we lived closer! We are about 5 hrs from Disneyland, but it is still to far away! Looks like you had fun and the Dino cafe looks like so much fun!

    Looks like fun! (And Disney is still not old for us folks - I can understand where you're coming from.) We checked out the dinosaur exhibit at the British Natural History Museum while in London - still not quite as exciting as Barney for Esme yet!
