May 8th:
Our last stop was on Disney's private island, Castaway Cay. I think this was
our favorite stop of the whole trip. I want to live here. We stayed until the last
possible second and even then, no one wanted to leave.
I will have put up more pictures from this trip. (I am still playing catch
up on this picture everyday thing because it put me so far behind.)
This really and truly was the trip of a lifetime. I cannot
say enough good things about it. Perfect. That may be the only word
I can use to describe it. Crew sobbed. And sobbed. And sobbed the night
before we left. And then he cried for a straight week when we got home. I think
we all wanted to cry when we had to get off the ship. Sometimes I want to
cry because I want to go back.
May 7th:
I mean, really? There are just no words. Baby girl and Elsa. Can we please
stay here forever?
May 6th:
Puerto Rico.
One day I will come back here and stay for a week just to explore. We toured the
fort in the morning and then flew kites out in front of it. We walked back
to the ship but stopped and ate
the best fish tacos I have ever had.
May 5th:
Our first stop was in St. Thomas. We took a cab to a beach and played all day.
May 4th:
another day at sea
May 3rd:
Be still my heart. These two. We were at sea all day today.
May 2nd:
Today we got on the ship. I quite love Disney. And everything Disney. And
this may be the best trip ever so far.
May 1st:
Animal Kingdom and Magic Kingdom
April 30th:
Universal Studios
One day I will be a witch and live in Harry Potter world. This has been on
our bucket list for years. I wanted to stay forever. As did my boys.
April 29th:
Day 1: We spent the morning at the Animal Kingdom and the afternoon at
the Epcot Center.
I was so excited to see how this girl would react to the characters. She did not disappoint.
She loved them from far away. Up close and personal? She was not so sure.
April 28th:
The day we have been anticipating for months is finally here. We are on a
plane to Florida. Three days in Disney World. Seven days on the Disney
Fantasy Cruise ship. We. Cannot. Wait.
April 27th:
"This is how old cowboys used to fall asleep to keep the sun out of their eyes."
And then, he promptly fell asleep.
(words of wisdom by Cole.)
April 26th:
Her time out spot. She doesn't look like she is too disappointed about it. I may need to find another way to reign in all that sass.
April 25th:
The weekend that took us back in time 15 years... We were asked to be 'crew chiefs' for youth conference this weekend. We were given a group of kids to be in charge of. It was seriously awesome. It made me kind of want to go back and be an EFY counselor again. And then I realized my own kid will be going to EFY in two years. I cried.
April 24th:
Cleaning a house and packing bags. It is not fun.
