First FAMILY Vacation
Walt Disney World - FL
Okay so we took our first (meaning only Ray, me, and the kids went) family vacation this last week to Disney World in Florida! I am here to tell you that Disney World is amazing and can be fun! (I have heard so many that hate it!) Yes, it was crowded and hot, but did that stop us?!? NO!!! We did everything and loved every second of it! Our kids were perfect, not really, but considering the heat, walking, etc... THEY WERE PERFECT! It was the hottest it has been in Florida this last week, imagine that! Gavin went for the the first time at the age of 7, Gage the age of 3 1/2, and Ray age of ... 26! This was my second visit! Everyone said that Gage would not have fun; we were taking him too young... etc... WELL they were all wrong! Gage did GREAT! We took a stroller and a "leash" (Ray and I hate them!) just in case we needed them for him, but he did NOT use either the ENTIRE trip!! Gage and Gavin held our hands everywhere we went and WALKED!!! I think that I am going to break up the post and trips into days. I think that would be eaiser to do with all the pictures that I took, plus I can kinda share how we made it work for us!
We left on Friday day morning and headed to Alabama to visit and stay the night with Ray's family. We got up really early on Saturday and drove to Clearwater Beach to stay the night. My parents took me and my siblings here when we went to Disney. It was only a little over an hour to get back to Orlando. We got up on Sunday morning and went to the beach. (My kids would not know what to think of a summer without a beach!) We started headed to Disney, but we were getting there really early, so we happened to find a place called Dinosaur World that had lifesized dinosaurs (not real), and we toured the park. The boys loved it! Ray got in FREE for Father's Day too! We got some lunch and headed on to Orlando. Sunday is where our Disney journey began, and I will start a new post for that! =)
