Nate and Me

They have this fun rollercoaster for the grandkids and all of our kids loved it, even Luke. Don't worry, he never rode alone. :)

We were so lucky to get to take a fabulous vacation to Orlando, Florida and visit Blake's, Hallie's, & Chase's Grandparents. The next several posts tell about some of our adventures. I want to send a huge thanks to Roy & Donna for their warm hospitality. We had great fun, great food, and fantastic company. We love you guys, thanks soooo much. :)

My boys!

We had our trip to Florida pretty planneout to maximize our fun! We had a day we spent (recouping from jetlag) and relaxing around the Parker house. They live inn a beautiful house on a beautiful lake. We went for boat rides (Luke's first), swimming, jet skiing, and tubing. Okay, well the kids went tubing. :) It was a perfect day.

Walt Disney World - Our Day At The Magic Kingdom

The Magic Kingdom was decked out in all things fall and Halloween. I loved it! The beautiful castle.

We got him!

Trapped!

We spent one great day at the Magic Kingdom and had a ball. We lucked out and had great weather too. The kids loved the rides, Nate and I loved the atmosphere, and Luke loved being outside...it was great! They have an attraction there called "The Laugh Floor". It's based on the Monsters, Inc. movie and it was hilarious! Definitely another favorite.

Lovin' the ride

I love this picture :)

We're very fortunate that Grandpa Parker has a big, beautiful boat and was nice enough to take us for a cruise. We went up the intercoastal and out onto the Atlantic Ocean. We got to see porpoises swimming next to the boat which was extra great! It was beautiful and oh, so relaxing.

Disney World Pictures - Hollywood Studios

Chase got to fight Darth Vader! He's such a Star Wars nut, so he LOVED this.

The Rockin' Rollercoaster is awesome. The kids and I rode it over and over.

Hallie rockin' out. :)

We spent a day at Disney's Hollywood Studios. In the morning, Grandpa, Aunt Jenny, Brenden, Ethan, & Sammy came along. We had a great time watching all the great shows and going on fun rides. The fave overall had to be the Rockin' Rollercoaster.
