Orlando Vacation with Two Kids

Caleigh took over Cole's MiB laser gun.  My parents ended up having to buy her one.  She shot everyone at Disney World with hers, including Pooh and Tigger.

Caleigh was amazed at the Caro-Seuss-el.  She cried when I put her on it because she was scared, and she cried when it was time to get off because she wanted to do it again.

To Orlando...An hour and a half after being in the car, I thought we should turn around.  It was 11 o'clock and both kids were awake and crying.  Thankfully, we decided to head on down to Orlando for a week with my parents.  Driving through the night helped since Caleigh and Elisha slept most of the time.  We made it in nine hours when I figured it would take at least eleven or twelve.   And, it only took us eight hours to make it to Rusty's parents on the way back.  We went to Universal, and my parents took Caleigh to Disney World.   She was the last kid to see Mickey and Minnie, and when she cried as they were leaving, they sat down in the floor and let her crawl all over them giving hugs and kisses.  My mom said it brought a tear to her eye.

Caleigh hugging Dora: She would have had enough fun just playing with the toys inside the stores at Universal without riding anything.

Elisha doing what Elisha did - sleeping.  He actually had his best week ever with only 1 1/2 bellyaches

Caleigh terrified by Jaws with Aunt Katie and Uncle Cole.   We had just survived a horrible thunder storm.  We parked the strollers under a small awning and tried to keep them dry.  Unfortunately, we didn't stay dry.
