Disney and Hutchinson Island!

We had a great trip to Disney World and Hutchinson Island in Florida! It was Carissa's 5th time to Florida in 9 months so it is like our second home. This time Daddy had a business trip for M&T Bank in Orlando and Carissa and I decided to join him for the fun and we stayed right at the Swan & Dolphin Hotel on Disney property! It was so great to be able to walk to everything or just hop on a Disney bus or boat. We just did Magic Kingdom one evening when Daddy wasn't working and Carissa loved It's a Small World! It was fun seeing the Magic Kingdom all decorated for Fall. Never been during that time of year! So Mommy & Daddy had fun too! After a few days in Disney we went to visit friends and new business associates for Mommy & Daddy's business in Tampa and then since we were in Florida went to Hutchinson Island for a few days to visit Grandpa and Grandma Smith. Mommy and Carissa got to stay a few extra days but Daddy had to go back to work. Carissa loved seeing the Ocean again and swimming in her pool! She got the baby pool all to herself!
Here is the highlight reel:

We made it to Disney!! Well the airport so far!

The Castle in Magic Kingdom!

She loved It's a Small World! Looking at everything!

Loved all the fun things waiting in line at the Winnie the Pooh ride! With the evening pass though we didn't have any long lines! It was great! Carissa got to go on Pirates of the Caribbean, Winnie the Pooh, Peter Pan, It's a Small World and the Tiki Bird Show. She loved it all and was so good!
