Look at the cool plate my sweet hubby won for us on our last trip! He was even awesome enough to put it on my van.

I thought we had left the rain in Florida, but I was sadly mistaken. Welcome home to rainy Georgia!

Disney's newest waterpark, the Magic Kingdom!
Finally met up with the Meuse family! They are such lovely people, and Miss Renee made a new friend and gaming partner in Abby.
Today, the train has become a water ride!
Good morning from soaking wet, raining sideways, Old Key West resort! We're still in our happy place and NOT Georgia, so we shall not complain.

The hot tub hogs finally left so that we could get in. It's ahhhhhmazing!
Since it is drizzling and I need to do laundry, why not hang in the pool for a bit?
It's raining. The adult beverage drinking guests at Food and Wine are getting super rowdy and rude. It's time for some quiet at Old Key West.
Still on our Kim Possible mission. The phone booth gave us a golf ball!
The Stella in Mark's hand had nothing to do with the complete fail of the last post.
And here is the photo that goes along with the last post...lol!
On a mission for Kim Possible!
Ziti Sisters....Si!!!!
For our buddy, Ed. Boo! Still no Tweet board!

Surprise! Happy Birthday, Chica!
Kisses from Dara Vamp!
"Luke, I am your father!"
She'll probably be mad at me for posting this, but even at 12, her peaceful, quiet, sleeping face brings a smile to my heart. Now, who wants to wake her up? ;-)

Just saw a beautiful wedding along the Boardwalk. Renee watched them throwing rose petals and said, "When I was six and imagined my own wedding, I wanted my guests to throw pretzels at us so we could catch them in our mouths."
Spicy tuna roll in Japan...yum!
Mark as a contestant for DVC's Welcome Home Wednesdays. Good times!
Good morning from Nemo and Gang! For her birthday, the Miss received the most beautiful flower arrangement from some very dear friends. It is the most beautiful and creative thing we have ever seen.

Would you like some Magic Kingdom's 40th Birthday merchandise? Stand it these long-assed lines, Sheeple!
Meet our little Ohana...Mare, Mark, and Renee. We spend our days attempting to cherish and treasure every single one of life's moments while living, loving, learning, and laughing together. Sometimes, when life allows us, we even visit our favorite place on earth-Walt Disney World.
"Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened."~Dr. Seuss
I’ve seen how disruptive it can be for parents to have specific dreams for their children. My job is to help my kids foster a joy for life and develop the tools to fulfill their own wishes. My wishes for them are very exact and, given that I won’t be there, I want to be clear: Kids, don’t try to figure out what I wanted you to become. I want you to become what you want to become. And I want you to feel as if I am there with you, whatever path you choose. ~Randy Pausch
Real, natural learning is in the living. It's in the observing, the questioning, the examining, the pondering, the analyzing, the watching, the reading, the DO-ing, the living, the breathing, the loving, the JOY. It's in the joy. ~Anne Ohman
Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind. ~Dr. Seuss
