Mickey's Christmas Party

During our annual family vacation to Florida, we always attend at least one night of:

Although I try to take LOTS of pictures, I end up enjoying myself too much and forget to take them, and then rely on other family member to hook me up. 

These were taken with my new camera (which I didn't have a case for) and unfortunately I had a huge smudge on the lens (lower right hand corner) and all my pics came out blurry! UGH

But - you get the gist:

I also have to throw in one from Epcot.  My daughter was posing for another photographer, where she is trying to act like she is holding up Spaceship Earth in her hand - unfortunately, my angle didn't quite capture this:

I'm glad Ash is willing to offer that man a seat ;)

Florida Here I Come!

Tomorrow I head to the Sunshine State for a well-deserved vacation.  It's my annual family vacation to visit Mickey Mouse.  There will be 7 adults and 8 children (ages 10 and under) all in the house this year.  Sounds like fun huh? 

For the plane - I'm prepared with:

My iPhone

My phone has the soundtrack to my life on it. 
It also has a super duper camera that works for on-the-fly photos.
Also by letting my son play a few games of Angry Birds - I can get a few minutes of peace!


My Kindle Fire

It is well stocked with reading material including Catching Fire and Mockingjay(The Second and Third books of The Hunger Games), and a few other girly books such as:

Dixie Divas

All I Want for Christmas is You. 

 To Conquer a Highlander

I'm hoping to have some downtime to read, but with visiting Magic Kingdom, Sea World, Epcot, Animal Kingdom, Family, etc., I hope to finish one or two of them.

What I am looking forward to the most:

When it's December in Michigan, you don't get to see this too often.

So in between reading, sunning and enjoying life - I'll post some pics of our trip.
