Orlando, FL Vacation!!

We left our house at 1am on Friday night/Sat morning and drove for 16 hrs to Perry, FL.  We drove to the beach the next morning (Sunday) so the kids could see the sand and Gulf.  It was a very tiny beach but the kids loved it and we saw a huge horseshoe crab which Grayson is still talking about!
Then we drove to Orlando and checked in to our 3 bedroom timeshare.  It is great!  Soooo nice to have this extra room.  We went to the Magic Kingdom last night at 7pm (we had to swim first) and we stayed for fireworks and the Electric Light Parade.  We were there until 11:30pm!  Aleigha was so tired but after a 10 min nap in the car she was ready to stay up so we finally got to bed at 1 am.

Today we went to Disney Studios - got there at 10 am and left at 4pm.  It was a good park and we saw a lot of shows and characters.  We saw the Disney Jr show, Ariel show, Beauty & the Beast, Indiana Jones and Disney Rocks!  We went swimming after we got back to the condo and then ordered pizza for dinner. Tomorrow Jeff and Grayson will go to Epcot while Aleigha and I stay at the condo and swim, walk around and just have a lazy day.  I'm looking forward to that!!

The weather has been perfect while we've been here.  Sunny, 80 degrees and a light breeze.
Tomorrow night, Sherry and Lily will be joining us from New York! We can't wait to see them. :)
(I will add pics to this post after we get home.)

2012 fun...

I haven't posted in a long time... just haven't made the time.  Here are some pics from our events this year...
Here is Grayson's 4th grade music program.  This was the only time we could see him.  We picked the wrong side of the stage to sit at!

 Here is Aleigha's Cherub Choir for 3-5 yr olds.  She loves her teacher - Mrs. Weeds.

Here's Grayson's 4th and 5th grade Upwards Basketball game.  They won their last 3 games!

 Here are the kids' Valentines that they handed out to their class rooms....

 Here is Aleigha in her most striking model pose!!
