April/May has been a couple of the best months of our lives, as a family of four, so far. I honestly have felt so much love and happiness over the last couple of months. Taking our family to DisneyWorld was one of the most incredible experiences and none of us have come down from it.
If you follow me on social media you will have seen our huge surprise. Whilst we were in Disneyworld we renewed our wedding vows. We didn't tell anyone so it was lovely to just announce it through photos. We've been through lots of life struggles in our marriage up until now and our marriage is different now than it was 5 years ago. It was going to be our 5 year wedding anniversary while we were away so we thought it would be a special way to mark the occasion and to have our children to be a part of it.
We needed to make new commitments to each other and we wanted to show our girls that they mean the world to us whilst also remembering why we got married in the first place which was because we love each other.
The ceremony itself was beautiful. It was quiet and intimate. The girls were fairly well behaved and they both got to be our witnesses. They had to sign the certificate which was super cute.
Disney in itself was a dream come true. Both hubby and I hadn't been for about 18 years so to take our girls there was so special. I'd say it was a once in a lifetime holiday but we have got the Disney bug now and we are desperate to go back.
There were so many amazing moments there. I could spam you with lots of pictures on this post but i've narrowed it to a couple.
This picture was taken on my birthday which we spent at the Animal Kingdom. Mickey Mouse is my all time favourite Disney character so I was just as excited as the kids to meet him. This was one of the first of many times we got to meet him whilst we were there.
This picture was also taken at the Animal Kingdom. It was one of the pictures that was taken by a Disney photographer which you get uploaded to your magic band. I love it. There's not many pics of us all together and all with our eyes open. The ride in the background is Everest which was one of my favourite rides. It's so cool.
Together this month we've loved:
Disney
Rides
Shows
The Sunshine
The Beach

Ophelia learning to sing Let it Go
Half term (hooray for no school runs)
