We made it!


Yes, we survived Florida. We survived the extremely hot, humid weather, the thousands of people at Disney World, the long lines at every event in each park, and traveling with an 18 month old and a 9 year old "Diva".

I will admit, Brynn was a trooper! She didn't cry or scream on the plane rides(thank you for all of your prayers - hehe), she fussed a little during the hot, sweaty days at the parks(but we all did), she took her naps when she was tired, and she adjusted well to all of the excitement and riding in her stroller all day every day. We were pleasantly surprised how well she did.

Kaeleah, on the other hand, was the one we had some issues with. For someone who we thought was OVERLY excited about going to Disney World, seemed to complain more than anything. All we heard was, "it's too hot", "I'm tired", "when are we going swimming", and "this is boring". Yep, you read that right..."THIS IS BORING"! UGH!! Of course she got the lecture on how there are 1000's of kids who would do anything to be here and how lucky she is. I guess it must have sunk in eventually, because she just LOVED Sea World. Of course her favorite day was when we went swimming all day (go figure). When we left on Sunday, she didn't want to go, so she did have fun. It's just in her nature to complain. *rolling my eyeballs*

Billy and I have decided from here on out we are going to take vacations that revolve around swimming, since this is all our kids want to do anyways. We are thankful to Farm Bureau for the wonderful experience in Orlando, but from here on out which ever location they give us that has the most to do with swimming, that's where we are going(they give us 3 locations to chose from each year). This will actually benefit all of us. The kids will be happy to swim and we adults will be happy to just sit by the pool and relax(hmm....maybe our kids are on to something). :o)

Well, I will be posting some pictures later on in the week after I get all caught up on laundry, work, and putting all of our stuff away. We are very thankful that we were able to go on this trip and that we made it back safely. Even after dealing with the extreme heat and complaining, we really did have a good time. We are, however, very happy to be home and to be able sleep in our own beds. All we need now is a vacation from our vacation! :o)
