Dreams do come true...


For the past six months Collin has been talking about going to Disney World for his birthday. I can honestly say I believe it was everything he believed it to be. This trip was certainly all about "Collin" as he proudly wore his "It's my birthday" button each day we were there. We spent two days in the parks - Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom and one morning eating breakfast with the characters at the Contemporary resort. For some reason, Disney brings the best out of our kids and we all really enjoyed every minute we were there. It didn't hurt that we scored three free tickets the first day and one the second day. The pictures kind of speak for themselves so I will let them. There are several videos included in the Disney slide show so you may want to click this one to view it.


There is also a short slide show on the side of our Halloween costumes. We did not get a chance to trick or treat but we did dress up for a costume party at the Emma's house. For any of you who know TJ, you are going to want to click on the Halloween slide show to see a video of him with the kids. Somehow, we did not get a pic a Baylen, but he was a red power ranger.


I also included a couple pics from Stetson where we caught up with some of our professors - Dr. Mieras, Dr. Croce, Dr. Musser, Dr. Reddish, Dr. Fant, & Dr. Lucas. The boys particularly enjoyed playing football with Dr. Musser in the hallway in Allen Hall. We met up with one of Britt's students from Pensacola, Claire Stubblefield, who lives in Britt old dorm - Stetson Hall. It was a lot of fun to go down memory lane with the kids.


Lastly, Britt was in David McKinney's wedding last weekend in Orlando and we had a blast. We got to see the Coffey family, which is always a treat for the entire family. David and Lindsay (his new bride) looked picture perfect and we loved being a part of the festivities. Next weekend is another greatly anticipated wedding. I am really looking forward to meeting the lucky man who got Melissa Gainey to say "Yes!"

OH my goodness I commented before I looked at the halloween pictures. Please relay the message to Britt that he gets my gold star for best costume ever. :)
