A picture is worth....

 

I don't know if Brianna is going to recover...meeting Mater just might have done her in....



Our trip has been happy, exhausting, and filled with tons of crazy days....long long days.  The kids are having a blast!  We spent the first day SOAKED in the Magic Kingdom...but other than that the weather has been great!




We have come home each night to the hot tub and the pool which has been great!

Getting ready to roll


In less than 48 hours...we leave for Disney...Can you tell we are getting ready?

Some people think this is vacation....I do not think that this is going to be a vacation....Typically we go to Aruba in March...we love it there our little slice of heaven by the ocean.  THAT is a vacation.

Rides, park passes, massive schedules of where to be when to get to what we need to be....not a vacation!

The exciting thing is we are meeting some of Ryan's family there and we have rented a big house with a pool and I fully intend on soaking up some much needed sunshine on at least one afternoon.

The kids are over the moon...Brianna came down this morning decked head to toe in Cars gear asking if today was the day she got to meet Mater.....I told Ryan to call Disney and make sure Mater was not on vacation next week.  The magic is still present and that will make the trip worth it.
