you've just won the super bowl.....

what are you going to do now?

We're going to Disney World!

Very soon the ten of us are going south to see the mouse again. It has been way too long!

Our love affair with all things Disney began soon after we were married thirty-nine years ago. We and our friends Sandy and Robert went just a few weeks after Disney World officially opened. Many of the attractions were not even built yet, but we had a real blast and couldn't wait to see it all again.

Three months after David was born we went back. David was tucked away with his grandparents and the two of us took off. I think we thought he was to little to enjoy. We came back with a stuffed Winnie the Pooh and a plastic Pooh as well that became David's favorites. He kept "Plastic Pooh" for many years after that and eventually bit his nose off.

The book pictured above is a relic of one of those trips and is loved by this next generation.

After we had David and Amanda, we began to go regularly with my family. We had so much fun and every time we went we loved it more and more. We have so many great memories from that wonderful place.

It is a great honor now that we are able to introduce our little grandchildren to this magic. We will be there for a week. We are staying in "Goofy's Getaway," a four bedroom ~ three bath house with a pool from which we can watch the fireworks every night.

Because Bubba is military we were able to get great ticket prices. His was free and ours were greatly reduced. We have five day passes for all of the parks and we can come and go whenever we please.

The great blessings of God are making this dream vacation possible for us. I even peeked ahead on Accuweather and noticed that the temps will be in the low eighties all week.

It is all so amazing and I cannot wait to see the wonder on the faces of the little ones.
