On the Road Again

What a whirlwind the last two weeks have been. After our great week in Pensacola, we packed the kids in the van and took them to Orlando!!!

Our first stop was Discovery Cove where we got to swim with Dexter and Roxie...two bottle noses dolphins! It was an up close and personal, once in a lifetime experience. As neat as those 30 minutes were, they were only 30 minutes. We spent the rest of the day snorkeling on the "reef" that was home to hundreds of tropical fish and 44 sting rays. Amazing doesn't begin to describe the feeling of swimming along side a ray wider than I am tall. It rained mid afternoon sending lots of people home. We persevered and got to spend the last hour of the day practically by ourselves. I was especially impressed with the amount of time Jaelyn spent with one of the guides asking question and learning all sort of facts about sting rays.

Next, we checked into the Port Orleans Hotel and headed to the happiest place on Earth...Walt Disney World. We spent four fun-filled, crazy hot days riding every ride we could find at Magic Kingdom, Animal kingdom, And Hollywood Studios.

We've had a lot of fun, but after two weeks, it's definitely time to head home and get back into our routine of school, work, co-ops, baseball, and dance...not to mention sleeping in my own bed.

We'll spend the nigh tonight with my Uncle Clifford in Atlanta and be home late tomorrow night.

Be prepared for a major photo dump some time next week after grocery shopping, doctor's appointments (finally), orthodontist consults, and of course, school.
