| 2nd Day in Florida...already on the beach!! |
Happy New Year everyone!! So far this year has been great! We started off the New Year with a 24 hour drive to Palm Bay, Florida. Blake was such a trooper in the car. I cant believe that he rode the whole way with very few fussing. lol He is one amazing 3 year old. We stayed with Christian's Aunt and Uncle-who are the sweetest people! They took very good care of us! The weather was fantastic-75 degrees most days! Monday we went to Cocoa Beach, and Ron Jon. Phil was looking for a new hat, somehow Blake and I found hats and Phil had no luck. lol Blake loved the beach, and with sunny weather it was the perfect day! We went to Disney World Tues-Wed. It has been a childhood dream of mine, and I must say it was just as great as Id imagined it would be. Blake had the time of his life! He loved seeing all the characters, even though it was quite the challenge...we stood in line for an hour to see Buzz and Woody. lol He was able to meet Pirate Goofy at Magic Kingdom, Handy Manny, Little Einsteins, Buzz, Woody, McQueen, and Mater at Hollywood Studios, and Mickey, Donald, Goofy, Thumper, and King Louie at Animal Kingdom. We were able to see a lot of the other characters, however they were done by the time we saw them. We stayed in the Caribbean Beach Resort, in a pirate room. Blake LOVED sleeping in a pirate ship, the room was totally done in Pirate theme. Very cool! We all had so much fun! We decided to go back to Cocoa Beach on Thurs. The weather was a little chilly, we walked through Old Cocoa Beach-had lunch at a french restaurant on their patio. It was really nice. Then we headed back to the beach-it was chilly but still so nice. Blake played in the sand, we collected a couple sea shells. It was the perfect end to our vacation. We left at 4am our time to come home Friday. Arriving home at 4am on Sat. We did stop in St. Louis to eat a snack with Christians brother and future sis-in-law. We really enjoyed the week.
We leave next Thurs for Houston. I am really anxious to hear what MD Anderson will say when they see how great Blake is doing. I also have a ton of questions for them. I am looking forward to spending time with my Houston family. I have missed them SO much! Blake is getting excited for our trip too! You would think he is sick of long car rides! 2 big ones this month. However, he doesnt seem to mind the long rides!
Our year is starting out great! I pray that it continues. Thank you all for all your support-you guys are amazing! Love to you all!!
