Walt Disney World

Susie took a week off work for our fifth anniversary so we decided to do a family vacation this year. We spent a week down in Florida at Walt Disney World.
The boys did really well on the plane trip down. We had a lay over in Atlanta, and Adam threw up in the terminal. We didn't think to much of it, since it was his first time in the air, so we boarded the next plane to sunny and warm Orlando.
It was pretty cool when we got there. We went to baggage claim and there was a man there with our name on a sign. He helped us get our luggage and brought us down to a private garage were there was a Lincoln Town Car waiting for us. What luxury.
So we got to our hotel, unpacked, and and got ready for bed. That's when Adam had a massive blow out in his diaper. We had to clean him, the bed and the floor.
The next morning we went to the Magic Kingdom. Man that place is cool. Susie's been there before, but it was the first time for the rest of us. Brayden was pretty cranky at first, but once he got into it, he had a blast.
That night Susie got sick. Sick, sick, sick. Oh, and Adam puked all over her in bed.
So the next day we went to Hollywood Studios. Susie made it for about two hours. We saw the Playhouse Disney show then she had to go back to the hotel, she couldn't do it anymore. She took Adam with her, so I spent the rest of the day exploring with Brayden. We had a good time together going to shows and meeting characters.
So we got back around 6 or so, ordered room service and went to bed.
We woke up around 3 to Adam puking, Susie puking, then it was my turn.
We all felt better the next day and went to Animal Kingdom. That place was packed, but we did get to go to the Nemo Musical. Brayden and Adam loved it. The sharks scared Brayden though.
The next two days we went back to Magic and Animal Kingdoms to see all the stuff we missed and see more shows we didn't get to the days before. We also got to meet a ton of characters including Mickey and Minnie. Brayden had an autograph book so we filled it with pics and signatures.
We left Wednesday night after a day at Animal Kingdom. It was a long day, but both boys slept the whole way home and missed the horribly scary turbulence. I'm not a very good flyer.
So here's some pictures(only a sample of the 466 that we took).

January and February

January went by so quick, here it is the middle of February. Gotta get caught up on this thing.
Last month my cousin Michelle came home for a week from the Army. She brought her boyfriend Lorenzo, but we only got to see them a little while. We met them at the Mall of America for lunch before they flew back to North Carolina.

That weekend we went to Wisconsin to have a birthday party for aunt Shonda. We stayed at Shonda and Kevin's house for the first time. The kids had fun playing with Shonda, and I had fun playing Guitar Hero with Kevin.
We went out for dinner at Red Robin with them and my parents.

The next Wednesday we went to Susie's parents house to celebrate Grandma Jeanie's birthday.

Brayden and Susie made some cupcakes for the party while Adam and I lounged on the couch. All her kids were there and our kids had a blast hanging out with their aunts and uncle (soon to be uncles, Aunt Annie and Mike announced their engagement this month).
Now we are getting ready for our 5 year anniversary. I surprised Susie with a trip to Disney World. We are leaving tomorrow morning, and Brayden can't wait (actually, none of us can). We'll get back next Wednesday, and I'll post some pictures of the trip as soon as I can.
