Our Disney World Trip

So we ventured out the first week of October to Florida to take the kiddos to Disney World and visit with an old college friend of mine. I must say a wonderful time was had by all! We were joined by my parents and brother; as well as, some good friends of my parents. We stayed at the Marriott Horizons Resort which is a pirate themed resort. Elijah choose the resort we stayed at and I must say it was pretty awesome. There was a huge pirate ship in the pool with all kinds of slides coming off it- we all had a blast!

Cool Slideshows

We actually hit all 4 theme parks, believe it or not. I think one of the kids favorite parks was the Animal Kingdom. There, the kids visited Camp Mickey/Minnie and went on a scavenger hunt and had their faces painted. We also went on a safari ride thru "africa" which was pretty awesome. You take a Jeep ride thru African lands and are able to see all kinds of animals in their natural enviroment. There is literally nothing between you and the animals- a neat experience!

After 6 days at Disney we were ready to head out for the beautiful beaches of Destin, FL to visit my friend, Kristi and her house full of boys as well. We had such a great time visiting them that I wished we could have stayed longer. They live in such a beautiful part of Flordia, absolutly beautiful white-sanded beaches that neither Wes or I have ever seen before. It took our breath away. It was also nice to have some other kids around that our kiddos could play with! Elijah hasn't stopped talking about how much fun he had playing with his friends in FL!

So as you can see a fun time was had by all and I can't wait to do it again! :)
