Mariska took to Instagram to share adorable glimpses of her family having a blast in the iconic amusement park, visiting all of its classic spots like Epcot and enjoying rides such as Guardians of the Galaxy's Cosmic Rewind.

The actress and her husband are quite the good sports, and she shared a selfie of the two sitting front row on the Guardians of the Galaxy ride looking eager as ever to take it on.

Kid-centric as Disney World may be, it wasn't only special for her kids but for her too, as she took part in Disney World's annual Candlelight Processional.
