Florida Trip

Two days after Christmas the Dustin family took a LONG (and I do mean long) drive down to Florida for two weeks. It was the longest time off Danny has ever had - and it was indeed a wonderful time. Though we had freezing weather, and had to buy hats, gloves and scarves to go to Disney, we still had a great time away from the routine of everyday life.


We stayed part of the time at Danny's parents home - and our first night there Jacob had a little visitor peeking in at him as he played Nintendo! He came back each night we were there, along with wild turkeys, bulls, and lizzards (ugh).

Danny's parents have a house right on this beautiful canal.


On New Year's Eve we went to a special show at Medieval Times which included a midnight toast and balloon drop! It was really so much fun!

Matt and Sherry looking oh so happy to greet the New Year!


Hannah Banana catching some down time on her DS...

Ryan enjoying his funnel cake. I have to admit that we ALL enjoyed funnel cakes at Epcot! We were so hungry we just devoured them right there in front of Japan! Japan turned out to be everybody's favorite country - full of unique souvenirs and shows, etc.

Yep - Ryan talked Hannah into the Mad Tea Cup!!

Jacob and Matt's favorite - the Aerosmith roller coaster!!

Stunt show we saw at Hollywood Studios - incredible shot Hannah got...

Okay - there is two things wrong with this picture. First, we are at Disney and my boys are not smiling at all! (shame on them for not wanting to let me take their picture) and second, they are all wearing HATS AND GLOVES!! This trip was just so cold that it really didn't feel like we were in Florida... But it was certainly fun nonetheless. We will remember this trip - just for different reasons!!! haha
