Dress Up
Taylor found a chest of winter clothes and kept playing dress up in them. I thought she looked cute. We did not go to Disney today. Instead we are having a little party for Taylor’s birthday tonight.
Hollywood Studios
I forgot my camera yesterday, but Shelley’s friend and Shelley both took pictures for me. I’ll post them when I get them. We didnt go all day but we went to Hollywood Studios for awhile. After a couple hours at the park we went to play Volleyball with Shelley’s friends.
Today we went back to Hollywood Studios. We got there around lunch time, so we went straight for Planet Pizza. We rode so many rides that I’m getting today and yesterday mixed up as to which ones we rode when. We rode the great movie ride, Narnia (which really wasnt a ride at all), watched Muppets 3D, Little Mermaid, and Playhouse Disney (where we also got to meet Annie & Leo from Little Einsteins). Shelley and I also rode the Rock’n Rollercoaster and Tower of Terror while the kids were taking a nap. Jamie was nice enough to let us ride while he watched the sleeping kids. When the kids woke up we rode Toy Story again today (which is probably my favorite ride). You are in a little cart and you play bunch of arcade games. Everyone loved this ride so we rode it several times lol.
Then we left and went back to Magic Kingdom. We caught the beginning of another parade lol but we had much better seats this time. I got alot of better pictures for this parade. We rode a Jungle Cruise, Magic Carpets of Aladdin, and then headed of for Mickey’s Toontown Fair. Here we saw Mickey & Minnie’s houses and rode a mini rollercoaster for the kids. Taylor did great on it. We then let the kids play in the play area before leaving to go home. We are all so tired today and the kids fell asleep in the car – Taylor even fell asleep before getting to the car lol.
Disney World
Today was our first day at Disney World.
We went to Magic Kingdom and as soon as we made it over to the park through the ferry, we caught the start of a parade. The kids loved it. Then we headed for the merry-go-round and I took a cute picture of Taylor riding a horse. It was super hot outside so we immediately had to get drinks after that. Then as we were waiting in line for “Its a Small World” another family with a special needs child told us that we could get a pass for Thomas (who has Down Syndrome) so that we could basically fast pass all rides and/or use the handicap entrance. After “Its a Small Wolrd” we went to get one of these at City Hall and it was amazing!! We had to wait only minutes for every single ride that we went on, it was great!
After we got the pass, we met up with a friend of Shelley’s from New York that happened to be at the same park as us and we hung out with her and her daughter. We rode Buzz Lightyear (a few times), Race Cars, Teacups, Dumbo, Carousel of Progress, Peter Pan, Winnie the Pooh, and Pirates of the Caribbean. During the middle of those we did stop to eat at a cafe. I was a little worried it was going to cost alot of money to eat at the park, but it really wasnt much more expensive as fast food (we got a cheeseburger, fries, and a drink for about $7).
We had alot of fun today and cant wait to go back tomorrow!
Shelley’s House
So after driving several more hours today, we finally made it to Shelley’s house yesterday. We got here around 5:30-6ish. We ordered pizza from a really good pizza place and ate dinner. It was very good! Afterwards we decided to go swimming for a little bit before bedtime. The kids had a great time playing together! I gave them a bath afterwards and Taylor used a froggy hooded towel. She was so cute. 
Today we did not do a whole lot. After taking the boys to school, Shelley had a hair appointment this morning. We went with her and went to the mall while she was having it cut/colored. It was a regular mall except they have alot of surf stores that we dont have in Texas (of course, what would we need them for?! lol). One of them had a real pool/wave for surf lessons. It looked really neat to watch others and Jamie wants to do it sometime. After her appointment was over we ate lunch and headed to the grocery store for things for dinner. When we got home Taylor took a nap and Shelley picked the boys up from school. Afterwards we let them have popsicles in the backyard. They really enjoyed those!! Then Shelley cooked lasagna rolls and her friend Darren came over. After dinner and we put the kids to bed, Jamie and I went to pick up his sunglasses (he left them at the place we had lunch) and our Disney tickets. I think we are going tomorrow. So Excited!
Florida, Here we come!
We left today for a trip to Florida. We are going to visit Aunt Shelley, Thomas and Meyer. We are also going to go to Disney World, the beach, and hopefully my Aunt Donna, Uncle Bill, and Cousin Amy. I havent seen them since Taylor was in a carrier. Anyway, we are excited to get there and have a great time with family!
We stopped at the Tanger Outlets in Terrell to buy me some new sunglasses, I had lost my wonderful Ralph ones. I’m still sad about it lol. But I did find some nice Armani Exchange ones that I like. They were not open when we first got there, so we went to eat a late breakfast/early lunch at Waffle House. It was yummy!
On the drive around Shreveport, we got tired of listening to music so we stopped at a Cracker Barrel to rent an audiobook. We didnt really know what to get and I was worried most of them would be too girly of a book, so we ended up getting the Da Vinci Code. It was boring at first, but when it started getting going it was much better! It really helped the time go by fast.
We stopped in Jackson, MS for dinner and let Taylor play at a McDonald’s play place for awhile to let her get some of her energy out. She has been doing such a great job on the whole trip! Anyways, we drove all day today and finally stopped in Pensacola, FL for the night.
Alright, well I should get some sleep. Night!
