Well I've been off the site for almost 2 weeks. Last week my family and I went to Disney in FL. I hadn't been on a real vacation since my honeymoon in 1992. I was very excited to go. Especially taking the kids on a real vacation. I think we took the cool weather with us to FL. It was chilly the first couple of days then started warming up. By the time we had to leave to come home I just wanted to stay another week to enjoy the weather and go to the beach.



I felt like a little kid. You wouldn't beleive how excited I was to see the castle at magic kingdom. It felt like a dream. I was so tired by the time we left that day. We was there 12 hours. We still could have used another day to see the rest. Tuesday we went to MGM. It was fun. We seen a few stunt shows and rode some rides. Wednesday we went to SeaWorld. We got to pet some dolphins. That was neat. We went to the Shamu show. We was told to be there 1/2 ahead. Well, it was almost full when we got there. We had to sit in the very front row. We got so drenched. Thursday went to the beach. My youngest woke up that morning with the flu. So we just went to the beach for few minutes so they could see it. They got some shells. Seen some alligators along the way back in ditches on the road. Friday we headed home. I had planned to meet Tonya (Yanya) my NSSSF on our way home. She was going to be clogging at a Festival. It was going to be a great way to end a great vacation. Unfortunately since Tanner had gotten the flu and there was ice storms going through TN we decided not to stop. I had so wanted to meet her. It took us took days to get there and two days to get back. On saturday, the second day traveling home, I got the flu. I had to ride him 9 hours in the truck with that. OH how terrible it was. So I'm glad I didn't stop to see Tonya. I would have felt terrible giving her the flu. I was so glad to get home.



Over the course of our trip I took almost 900 pictures. I'm so thankful for digital camera's. I put some of them in webshots under the disney folder. I couldn't put that many. Webshots wouldn't let me.


Sounds like you had a grand time in FL, except your baby getting the flu, then you. That will be a vacation they will always remember. 900 pictures!! How does one decide which to scrap?!?! Glad you made it home safe and sound.

That's what my mother told me also. ( I will always remember it). I know. It's going to be a big book. I'm excited to get started on it. I'm definetly going to have to go shopping to get Mickey supplies now!!!

Sounds like a marvelous vacation, in spite of the flu. Hopefully everybody is feeling better now. Just how are you going to decide which pics to scrap? LOL

I wondered why I hadnt seen ya post on here,so thats where you went off to! :-) It sure sounds like a dream vacation except for the flu part of it! I have a sister that lives in Orlando, and she has been bugging me to come and visit, but I dread that drive!! She wants me to teach my niece some scrapbooking stuff. With 900 pictures, you may need more than one book to put them all in! wow!

Glad you are back safe at home, and I hope you are all feeling better!

Looks like you had a wonderful time at Disneyworld. I love the picture of Tanner & Logan in the Mickey ears. They look very happy.

Now you have lots of scrapping to do. I don't envy you trying to decide which pictures to use. Can't wait to see some pages.

Shannon, it sounds like a dream vacation and well deserved! I'm sorry you got the flu though. Can't wait to see those vacation LO's. I've been planning our own holidays in April this morning. Now I just need to make some reservations this coming week.

Glad to see you back Shannon. Sounds and look like you had a great trip. Sorry to hear you got sick on the way home.
