We had a fantastic Spring Break last week. We took the kids to Florida. The weather was perfect, and we visited each of the Disney parks, spent a day at the beach and a couple days, just lounging in the pools at the resort. This vacation, as you can see in the pictures, was all about Kate. Jason and I took the kids to Disney World before Kate was born and when Kate (who is a huge Mickey fan) found our photo album of Disney World a few years ago, she asked with a sweet little sad voice, while staring betrayed at the picture, "Where's Katie?" So since that question we have been telling her that we will someday take her to Disney. Last year, she got smart and asked her daddy when he would take her to meet Mickey. He told her he would take her when she is 6. Well, we decided that since we had a good tax return (Thanks to the relocation) we better do it now while we have the money. There are many vacations I would much rather do, but we figured we better get this trip out of the way. Next time is my turn to choose the vacation, as I am not a huge fan of Disney World. But we enjoyed being together and mostly, we enjoyed that my parents were able to come spend some time with us in the sun. Here are some of our favorite pictures. I know they are mostly of Kate. She wanted to meet every character we saw, and she wanted her picture taken constantly. This is the place where dreams really do come true. For Kate, anyway... Just look at that huge smile in every picture. It was well worth it.
Okay, the part of this trip Kate was looking forward to the most, (other than meeting Mickey, that is), was the visit to Epcot where she could visit a mini Japan. She has been fascinated by Japan every since they studied it in school and she kept asking to go there. Jason told her that at Epcot there is a mini Japan and he would take her there. Well, while walking through one of the shops in "Japan" these sweet ladies asked Kate if she would like to try on a Kimono. She was thrilled and they were so sweet and took so much time with her, even fixing her hair up in a flower. That was very fun for Kate. She was so excited to tell Grandma about it.
Well, the rest of us had some fun at Disney too...
Now I can start saving for MY dream Vacation...

It totally looks like so much fun! I am hoping that we can take our kids next year. I am so interested to see where you go for your dream vacation. Keep me posted!
What a fun vacation! We "get" to do Disney sometime too and I'm sure I'll feel the same way, worth it but not looking forward to it really. So far we've been able to hold them off with promises of Sea World and the beach next year.
What a great memory you made with your kids. I loved all the pics . . ok . . except the snake one. :) I know my kids want so bad to go to Disney. But I am with you, I have other places in mind for a dream vacation. Do you know yet what you want to do on yours?
Oh, the pictures are just GREAT! I loved the ones of Kate in her Japanese get-up!!
We had such a good time being with all of you. Thank you SO much for inviting us to come be with you. Love you lots.! MOM
Kerr-
I love the pictures. I too love the ones of Kate in her kimono, it was really sweet of them to do that. I am glad you were able to go and do this fun trip with your family, and Mom and Dad. What great memories you made.
Love ya

Looks fun. I was so jealous to see you dressed in shorts! Hah! Do you think I'll ever get to do that here in Idaho?
Kerri! Your kids have grown up so much! They are just beautiful! I must say that Disney is not my idea of a vacation either, but the kids love it so much that we must endure for their sakes...lol.
I hope all is well you guys! Send our love to Jason and the kids!
