The Maggiore Minutes: 5/11/08

Tuesday, May 13, 2008

This was a trip for the books. We were blessed beyond belief to have 4 grandparents embark on this trip with us and make it the grandest time for Erin and Anna. We stayed in a 4 bedroom home and everyone fit perfectly. We enjoyed breakfast on the patio each morning before heading out for our excursions. We started with Seaworld, and then Magic Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom and back to Magic Kingdom.

I cannot describe how Happy this place is. Everyone is so joyful. Very few kids were screaming, and very few parents were yelling, it was so amazing to watch so many people in one place having such a grand time.

Erin truly took it all in - she is very serious when it comes to watching the shows and meeting the characters. She loves any dressed up character, but these friends were so special to her. It was so much fun to watch her love on each of them and them love on her.

Our only regret from this vacation was that Anna became terribly sick. We had to take Tues. off to take her to a Doctor. She was diagnosed with possible RSV and an ear infection. We had to buy a nebulizer and give her breathing treatments every 4 hours, yes even at the parks. She was so wonderful though. You would never know how bad she felt because she was still an angel.

I could go on and on, but I won't bore all of you. It was an unforgettable trip and we are all suffering from PVD(post vacation depression). It's been hard getting back to reality after being swept away to the Magical Land of Disney World. I did my best to choose a variety of pictures for the slide show and not overload ya'll with our 180 pics!

We thank the Lord for allowing us to take this much needed vacation with our family and make memories to be held for years to come. As Erin keeps saying, "My dreams really did come true!"
