When I was in the early planning stages of our trip to Florida at Thanksgiving, I figured that our big theme park experience would be at Disney World. I mean….Orlando IS Disney, right? Strangely, as much as we are Disney fans, my kids had other things in mind. I guess for the teen crowd, Harry…
Become a Minion – The New Despicable Me Ride at Universal Studios #WW
My almost-16-year-old is a huge Despicable Me fan, and so she was particularly excited to ride the new Despicable Me ride at Universal Studios. The ride was awesome, but we had nearly as much fun in the line, taking pictures at each poster along the way…. Linked up to Wordful Wednesday, Wordish Wednesday, and Wordless…
Boggy Creek Airboat Rides in Kissimmee, Florida #PSF
Kissimmee, Florida, trip: Day 2 You’d never know that any of my kids were nervous and hesitant about taking their first airboat ride. Last Monday I had my second experience at Boggy Creek Airboat Rides, but this was the first time any of my kids had been on an airboat ride. And we all had…
2012 Osceola Fall Art Festival in Kissimmee
Kissimmee Trip, Day 1 We arrived in Kissimmee last Saturday afternoon, after a long 14 hour drive through the night. Sunday started early with a visit to church, and then back to the Global Resort home that we were staying in for a restful afternoon. I knew that once Monday began, things would get hectic…
Downtown Disney – Wordless Wednesday #VisitKiss
Surprisingly, last week’s trip to Kissimmee did NOT include a visit to Disney World (I’m still just a little sad about that…) but I did manage to drag the family out to Downtown Disney. Unfortunately, our night out on the town was cut short by some cold rain, but we still had fun. You may…
Happy Thanksgiving – Photostory Friday/GMYBS
I completely forgot that it was Thursday today until I was getting into bed….exhausted after a very full day at Universal Island’s of Adventure. I’m a little worried I won’t be able to keep my eyes open for much longer to write this post. I really need to stop typing before I say something stupid…
Wordless in Kissimmee
We’re on our 3rd day of our Kissimmee vacation, and I am shocked by all of the things we’ve been able to experience already. I’ve been blogging about our daily activities over at i.seeKissimmee.com as their guest blogger for the week. And honestly, after the FULL days we’ve been having, it’s been all I could…
I Have Pre-Vacation Brain – #PSF Give Me Your Best Shot
It didn’t really hit me until just a few minutes ago that it was Thursday evening. I mean I knew what day it was….we’ve been doing the countdown to our big Florida trip for weeks and we are finally leaving TOMORROW. This afternoon, we’re in the middle of pre-vacation craziness. The kids are bouncing off…
Gifts of the Heart – NY/NJ Disaster Relief – WW
On Sunday my family and I were able to participate in a disaster relief service project of an enormous and inspiring scale. Approximately 300 volunteers of all ages gathered for 3 hours to sort, fold, box, and label thousands of boxes of donated clothing to be shipped to the victims of Sandy. We filled two…
Happiness in Black and White – Give Me Your Best Shot #PSF
My kids had another 4-day weekend, and instead of sitting at home like we did for days during Hurricane Sandy, we made plans to drive to my sister’s house to spend the day with the cousins….and their new puppies. The puppies were a huge hit, and I haven’t seen so many REAL smiles all in…
