Our trip - this might get long.
Saturday, Oct 4th --We started our trip to FL! We were of course all excited. The kids - because we were heading to Disney, Jason - so he could take pictures, myself - cause I was going to see family that I had not seen in a LONG time .. and we were going to see friends we had not seen in a while. We did awesome time driving down there and thankfully did not have to stop many times! We decided to stop at the Coronado Springs Resort first -- to see Kim, Tina, the girls, Anne, Melvin and Mike. It was so nice to see everyone and to meet the girls!!!!! We hung out with them a little while -- but then it was time for us to continue on to Linda's .. as we were all getting tired! We made plans to meet up the next day. Got to Linda's ... and tried to get to sleep at a decent time (ya, right) ...
Sunday, Oct 5th -- Animal Kingdom! We had never been there, so this was great. We met up with Kim and the gang and hung out with them some ... we saw the animals ... had a wonderful time. Stephanie decided that she LOVES roller coasters -- she got to go on Mt. Everest -- yikes. Not for me! LOL ... but wanted to go again after it was over!
Monday, Oct 6th -- Magic Kingdom! I so love this place -- can never get enough of it! Stephanie rode Space Mountain -- yikes again -- and thought it was "tame" ... sigh! What am I going to do with that child? First snakes and now roller coasters! Jason's parents met us there in the late afternoon -- and seemed to bring the rain with them -- but that did not stop us -- we stayed on and got to see the evening light parade and the fireworks -- WOW -- so amazing!!
Tuesday, Oct 7th -- we all decided to take it easy .. and just met Kim and the gang at their resort for some swimming (older 2 kids) and supper at the restaurant there. Jason's parents met us there. We were hoping to see each other later in the week, but we ended up not getting back together .. I am sad about that :(
Wednesday, Oct 8th -- we went to the Kennedy Space Center. Jason's parents met us there. It rained ..but we still had a great time. I think it was very educational for the older 2 kids .. younger 2 -- probably won't remember this trip at all. Samuel finally fell asleep while we were doing the bus tour ... he was so tired.
Thursday, Oct 9th -- we headed out to Anna Maria Island so we could see Aunt Brenda, Uncle Dennis and Garrett ... also got to see Walt for a few ... we went to the beach (Stephanie was so excited when she found out) .. and of course, got sunburn! But it was nice to see them all -- had not seen Brenda and Dennis in 10 years .. Walt in 12 years and of course, never met Garrett (he is just a day older than Samuel and Jenna) ...
Friday, Oct 10th -- went to Downtown Disney and had lunch with Jason's parents at the Rainforest Cafe. Awesome place!!! :) Did a little bit of shopping ... and then headed back to Linda's in the late afternoon .. needed to start getting ready to head back home the next morning.
Saturday, Oct 11th -- headed home ... miss everyone!!!!!! :(
Told you it would be LONG .. LOL .. there is more, I am sure ... but I need to go and do other things! :)
