I pretty much escaped the souvenir/food money pit trap at Disney until I found these two shirts and then I couldn't resist. My wife and kids think these shirts fit me to a teeeeeeee.....
You know it was a great trip FILLED to the brim when you come back and you have to put the baby in the hospital with croup and pneumonia. That hard schedule was hard on the baby.
The wonderful trip started with a stop in Destin Florida for a few hours on our drive to Orlando. The most beautiful beaches with the softest/finest/whitest sand I have ever seen. Hands down this is the most beautiful sand I have ever seen on a beach. At 8 am on an overcast Monday, we pretty much had the beach to ourselves for a few hours. It was magical.
The sun peaked through at times and it was very warm for being so cloudy and early.
The ocean wasn't nearly as cold as the ocean in California or Virginia where we had been before in non summer times.
Jumping for joy at the beach to start off this wonderful week.Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana were beautiful, green, blossoming and gorgeous this time of year. No hot humidity. No dead/brown looking surroundings. Lush green, temperate and exciting. We even passed Colton's future home. Not as pretty as Tallahassee but I am so excited for Colt's next big adventure.
We arrived! Happy and excited. I don't know what it is about Disney that makes kids act like little crack addicts but they go till they pass out and then wake up for more! I think it is in the air because we brought all our own food for the entire week so I'm thinking the "kid drugs" are in the air.
Sometimes it was hard telling the characters/animals from the children.
The kids were "super" for this trip.
They rode...
and rode.....
till they felt like puking! Mission Space was the limit for mom and Kimball. This crazy ride almost spun the food right out of them.
The Mrs did a fabulous job of bringing the greatest collection of homecooking for a whole week to Disney and it gave the needed energy for the daily binge of pure excitement.
It just about wiped us all out, we had so much fun.
Disney animals are very discerning and wise. They know which kids you should keep a safe distance from....
Aunt Carol Lynn's supershirts were a huge hit at Disney and helped us keep track of the troop. We had multiple people ask us where they could buy them at Disney. Maybe Aunt Carol should should open up a business.
It was magical. We have to thank Lani's parents and Aunt Carol for helping. The almost 1:1 adult to kid ratio kept the trip a ton of fun. We partook of the Disney magic and it wore us out. Hopefully the memories will be long lasting so we don't have to do it for another 10-12 years!I am embarking on a couple months project so my posts should slow down. Sorry. No rest for the wicked.

Wow!! Looks like you all had a wonderful time! Sorry Brigham got sick..poor lil guy. :(
I don't think I would have left that beach..the crew would have had to terrorize the magic kingdom without me. :)
Glad you all made it home safe and almost healthy!

Great trip! We love disney crack. It's definitely in the air. Bummer about brigham, he actually looks very ticked off about it, but how many of your kids can know they rode in an ambulance?? Great times and memories. I hope it lasts for 10-12 years. Good job on the pre- cooking thing. You definitely saved a bunch there. Nice t-shirts. Can't wait to hear about your summer, see you in the fall;)
You always seem to pack alot of punch into your trips. How could your kids ever forget them?!! I love the shirt idea and it is always good to have the adult/child ratio closer to 1:1. Poor Brigham, I hope he is feeling better-
Your family is just great Sherdon- Love ya
Dude, Uncle Wade totally rebuked me for swearing on my blog. I only swore three times, and two of them were quotes from other people! Its a good thing he didn't read my blog from like a year ago.
I dig the shirts, good job with those.
I can't wait to go to Florida, too.
Looks like an awesome trip! I do love the shirts, AND the adult to kid ratio.
Someday we hope to make that kind of adventure...
And I would love to see your menu plan.
Well, you get the award for the most disgusting comment of the year. How would a person know they were feeding their kids puss?
Party ON!
