Nathaniel thinking about God at church.
Nathaniel, Tony and Fenway going for a walk before our LONG drive to Florida.
Oh wait… yep it is coming!!
Me with my step father, Mark.
The boys playing at grandma’s.
Blurry but you have to love Tony’s expression!
At one point we got stuck in a traffic jam that was park worthy. So I put the car in park and took this photo of the blue sky. Now I will ALWAYS know what shade of blue the sky really is. 😉
Nathaniel watching sports.
Max yawning
YAY! Nathaniel gets to ride the tow truck!
My boys on Thanksgiving being sweet!

Where is Nathaniel?
Sunset in Orlando
Yum! Desert! Yes Nathaniel is trying ice cream… he didn’t do great with it, but he didn’t do awful either.
Night time view!
The boys with a lego dragon
Lego Toy Story
Cool amphibious cars!
It was crowded there that night!
Lots of Christmas trees.

Max forgot his family uniform shirt at Grandma’s house. This was the best photo that we got of all of us.
It is Grandpa Ron! Oh wait, that is a manatee. 😀
Nathaniel loved the fishies!
A sea turtle!

A visit to the Grand Floridian Resort
This is real!
See this is what it took!
Amazing!
It even holds people!
This is the Contemporary resort
Not as impressive, but still festive!
View of Magic Kingdom from Contemporary resort.
Nathaniel and I on the boat from Magic kingdom to Wilderness lodge.
Wilderness lodge.
Inside Wilderness Lodge. It was sort of Frank Lloyd Wright inspired I guess.
Not sure what this was or is.
Massive fireplace in lodge.
Tree in Wilderness Lodge
My mom wanted to experience the wildlife at Wilderness lodge!
Fun restaurant that we went to.
Nathaniel fell asleep in the restaurant
This reminds me of the bugs in our back yard…. only bigger! Thankfully it was fake.
The day after we got back I went crazy and took the kids to Ikea. Nathaniel is half asleep. We had lunch.
This was their christmas platter.
We had a great time and learned a lot about what we would do if we were to do this again. Clearly we can have fun just using the transportation to the different places. Imagine if we would have done that to eat it would have been fun, albeit expensive. We are gradually trying to get back into the rhythm of things here. Max lost his glasses right before we left (causing him to nearly late to German) so we are thinking of getting him new glasses. We are also talking about making another Ikea trip to get Nathaniel his big boy bed. I hope to get him potty trained this month as he REALLY needs to be. We also hope to take out Christmas this weekend.
That is all for now!
