Great couple of days


We have had a lot of fun the past two days! On Sunday Grandpa Darr came over to visit. We went to Downtown Disney ate and shopped a little. It was great to see him after several months. Lauren had been asking for him for the past few months, but then turned shy when she saw him.

Sunday I did the family thing....which involved going out to eat instead of watching the Super Bowl!! Our hotel even had a giant screen setup on the boardwalk. We made it back in time for the fourth quarter so I saw the Steelers last score. Our meals were excellent (thanks Grandma Trankina!!). The rest of the lamo's had chicken, but I ordered an awesome Ahi Tuna dinner.

Yesterday we went to Animal Kingdom in the morning and Magic Kingdom at night. Lauren really enjoyed seeing all of the animals. She loves bats, but sadly only one was out when we went through their area (it was pretty cold still). We road the safari twice and went through both forest treks. The highlight of the day for the adults was riding Everest Expedition. It's a great new ride will encourage us to go to Darcee and Tom's favorite park!!

We went back to the hotel and took a nap in the afternoon and since it was such a nice day we took Lauren down to swim...it might have been a little chilly because she turned blue (we are going to try it again today)! After a warm bath we headed to MK and watched Spectromagic from the train station and the fireworks in front of the castle. Both were great!!!

Off to the Grand Floridian for breakfast with Mary Poppins!
