The older our children get, the harder it becomes to find the time to do things as a family.  Even more rare to be able and get out in the open air and do a physical activity together. We recently had an opportunity to do just that! You bet we jumped at the chance to Disney Try It. While at the recent DisneySMMoms Celebration, we went to Fantasia Gardens and Fairways for the first time. A Disney themed miniature golf course inspired by the animated Disney classic film, Fantasia. Each of the 18 holes brought whimsical to the mini-sport that brought smiles to our faces and added hours of fun to our Walt Disney World vacation.
