Florida!

We are back in Olympia safe and sound from a very fun (but exhausting!) trip to Orlando, Florida! We had a really great time! It was so nice to be together just the four of us. Taylor and Maddie were truly so good throughout the trip which Dave and I were so thankful for- we were worried about the plane ride and sleeping and both turned out really well. We spent the majority of our time in the pool so we all have great tan lines from the waist up :) We also went to Coral Springs, Florida to visit our good friends the Loonams. It was so nice to hang out and catch up with them. The girls had fun with their three kids, Joe, Grace and Tab. We ended our trip by spending two days at Disney World. The girls loved going up in rides that took them way up high (like Dumbo and Aladdin's Magic Carpet) but when it came to anything with a witch (Snow Whites Scary Adventure) or the dark (Pirates of the Caribbean) they wouldn't open their eyes until the ride was over! Their two favorite rides were the carousal and It's A Small World. Taylor was also quite thrilled because she got to listen to Belle tell a story and get her picture taken with her!

We were glad to get home- it was the weirdest weather in Florida. It was always hot (90+) and humid but all of a sudden during the day it would cloud up and rain and thunder and lightening!

When we got home we had a garage sale (it was so nice to get rid of some un-needed things!) and now we are getting started on unpacking all the boxes in our house. Dave has spent the last two days putting together bar stools, beds and more closets- which is great! Thank goodness he is handy like that!

I will leave you with a few pictures from our trip....
