Florida 2012

A couple of weeks ago we ventured out on a 14 hour road trip, both kids in tow, headed to Florida. Our first stop was to see my mom and her boyfriend then from there we would travel to Orlando.

The kids did excellent on the trip both to and from Florida. I was pleasantly surprised!

I’m going to stop right here and say this post is probably going to be mainly photos.

This was Jayci’s snack container (thank you Pinterest). Once it was gone she didn’t get anymore until we stopped for the day. I really thought she would eat it all fast but she made it last.554385_10150956511986632_509186631_13255802_1544766326_n

We spent a day and a half at Magic Kingdom and it was a lot of fun. Wednesday was not nearly as crowded as Thursday was. The crowd plus the fact that it was about to storm we decided to leave early and just go hang out at the hotel. *Pictures from Disney!

The Castle from the ferry. We stayed off site so it was a heck of a time getting to the actual park.149788_10150989029111632_509186631_13335938_1471686689_nJust the Girls.150145_10150989031421632_509186631_13335947_328304966_nThe very first ride we did were the teacups and they were so much fun.576654_10150989033506632_2121424001_nI mean just look at that sweet face.

Even Korbyn got in on a little ride action!292637_10150979841206632_509186631_13299726_781028596_nMy mom and Jayci waiting on the fireworks to start.36592_10150989040361632_509186631_13335973_1331066966_n

I think the picture with Chip and Dale is funny because Jayci has no clue who they are. She thought they were part of the Alvin and the Chipmunk gang…ha!

Disney

Jayci with all the princess. I just adore the middle picture of her and Cinderella! Melts my heart every time I look at it.Disney1

We also went to dinner at Joe’s Crab Shack. It is my favorite place to go if there is one around.

My silly husband at Joe’s. 580255_10150979831336632_509186631_13299697_1038732575_n

On Friday, Jay, the kids, and I stopped at downtown Disney. That was a fun little place. It had lots of shops and restaurants. We ate at this place called the T-Rex. It was very cool and had dinosaurs all around The kids LOVED it. Even Korbyn liked watching the dinosaurs.

Of course I left my big camera in the car so this is on my phone. But this was a HUGE fish tank inside the restaurant. 314122_10150979820351632_509186631_13299659_677249608_n

Jayci with Lego Woody in the Lego store at Downtown Disney. It simply amazes me how they build these things out of legos.562697_10150979823336632_509186631_13299664_1183238468_n

Saturday we spent the day just hanging by the pool and just relaxing because we would be driving home on Sunday and Monday. It was a nice little trip. It went by a little to quick and felt like a lot of driving but it was fun and the kids had a great time! Well, I know Jayci enjoyed it anyway. Korbyn is just along for the ride.

Just a few pictures of Korby inching his way right into the pool. He loved the water. We had to make sure we stayed by him the whole time he was outside!546671_10150989049621632_509186631_13336014_1865648880_n531407_10150989050076632_509186631_13336017_73804339_n554460_10150989050841632_509186631_13336021_1178009514_n

Overall, we had a very good trip that won’t be forgotten. We made lots of special memories that will last a life time.
