| | I finally have found some time to blog about our vacation. We had an awesome vacation with a minor, unexpected, event that took place. All in all it was a much needed trip. We took two weeks and went to Florida to visit my parents and to visit Mickey Mouse. Yes, that is right, we went to DISNEY WORLD! What an awesome trip.
First we went to my parents for a few days. While there we ate good food...Shrimp Boil! Also had lots of crab. YUM! I so do miss good sea food, frozen just does not cut it for me. While there I hooked up with one of my sorority sister's for the day. I have to tell you I LOVE FACEBOOK. Had Michelle not mentioned that she was going to Destin I would never have known that we would be in the same place at the same time. It was so good to see her. She has two adorable boys who are twins. They are 7. Jake thought "they were so cool"...his words. We also went to the beach and swam in the pool. Okay I did not get into the pool and swim. I did get into the pool three times though. Twice at my parents and one at Disney. It was just too stinking hot, I had to. I just dipped myself in real quick and got out. Sometimes you just got to live a little. But I must admit I was a bit nervous about getting some bacteria growth or something where I shouldn't. HA! TMI?
Here are a few pictures:

After a few days at my parents house we headed to Disney World. Our drive down was uneventful until we got onto the Disney grounds, heading to our hotel. Jake told me his tummy hurt so I assumed he needed to potty. I told him we were almost there. He said, "No mommy, I am going to be sick" And yes he was right, he got sick...all over everything that was on the floor in front of him. YUCK! Well that changed our plans for that evening. We had to clean and decided to relax to make sure he was not getting sick. Thankfully he was not. I think it was the combination of the heat and drinking lemonade and juice on the way down. Need to keep that in mind when we go on future trips.
We went to Magic Kingdom first. Jake LOVED it. That park is perfect for young children. So much to do and so exciting for them. It was great to watch Jake experience it all. He loved everything about it, but when the day was done and we headed back to our hotel, he told us he was done and ready to go back to his Grandma and Grandpa's house. Not so soon mister!
Here are a "few" pics from Magic Kingdom:

The spinning tea cups (thought I was going to be sick!) Going to an awesome 3D show.
 
Jake and Bob in "It's a Small World", made Bob go. Jake on his favorite ride....the train (*Sigh*)
We also saw the night time Parade which Jake loved. It started to rain so we headed back to the hotel before the fireworks started, but we got to see them from our hotel, that was good enough!
Here are a few parade photos:
 
 
Can you believe that they had this evil looking thing in the parade?
Jake did not like it. I am not even sure what movie it is from. Well time is up. Jake is waking from his nap, I will hate when those finally end.
I will be back to tell you more about our trip and the unexpected event.
I know you all are hanging on your seats with anticipation! |
