And we're off!

Florida Here We Come. 

 At the end of September, Ella, Cooper and I decided to join my Mom, Aunt, Sister, and two nieces on a trip to Florida.  We are not big fans of missing school but decided the much needed family (cousin) time was worth it.  I just happened to have a student teacher who was teaching solo that week anyways, so I was able to leave my first graders without too much guilt.  The whole adventure just fell into place and it was so much fun....but we did miss Benji and Addie, who stayed home! 

 The first full day of our full week in Florida was spent in the pool all morning and at Disney World's Not So Spooky Halloween Party.  The kids dressed up and got to go trick or treating in the park (they gave away A LOT of candy) and ride on many rides. 

 Tinkerbell, Captain Hook, Peter Pan, and Minnie Mouse

 Grandma and her Grandchildren...minus one.

 It was busy and hot but still the happiest place on earth.

 It was just as crazy at it looks! 

 It was getting late and these kids were getting a little silly. 

 Good thing Coop has a few years before we have to address this situation.
Let's just say it was a bumpy ride.

 Look who found Cooper while he was waiting for his sister to finish her roller coaster ride for the 5th time. She may be addicted!

This was such a fun night and we can't wait to do it again, just next time with Addie and Daddy!
