We made it back from Florida

We had a great time at Disney World. We spent five days in the four parks that they have down there and I feel like we only did about half of the stuff that there was to do. We started our vacation by visiting Amy's parents for Thanksgiving and having lunch with them. Then we drove to my parents and had dinner with them. We stayed the night and drove to Memphis to fly to Florida from there. It was a great flight and Mikayla enjoyed her first experience of flying.

Our first day was at Animal Kingdom. We made the mistake of going the Saturday after Thanksgiving. It was pretty busy. Below are some of the pictures from our first day. Here is where we drove through the Disney World arches.



Once we got into the Animal Kingdom we went the the Tree of Life which has a show themed from "A Bug's Life". The tree has many carvings and below is one of them with my kids Erik and Mikayla.


They also had there pictures taken with several characters as you can see below.





The kids also got to pet some animals at the Animal Kingdom.



It is getting late and I am getting sleepy, so I will have to wait until later to post about our other days.

First shot at creating our family blog

Hello world. I thought with how tech savvy I am that it was time to start my own blog to start sharing what is going on with our lives to the world. It is really skimpy on content for now, but I hope to expand it as I get more familiar with it. For now I have posted a link to our church web site that I have created. We also have some of our pastor sermons online.

To get on to the purpose of a blog, we are getting ready to go on our much anticipated trip to Florida. We are taking the kids to Disney World. This will be there first time to go there. This will also be Mikayla's first time to fly. We are so ready to have a week away from work and the stresses of everyday work life.

I will end for now and post more later.
