More Florida Pictures 2011

We are about half way through our trip in Florida... At this point surprisingly the kids are still getting along really well and we haven't had any major issues.
These are some pictures of Animal Kingdom and Epcot

We went to a little show called Nemo and after the show Zac had to "have" Crush.... he was so excited to buy it all by himself.
My kids all but Tator in the sharks mouth... they had a little play ground type of thing the kids were able to play on.
Tanner trying to smile as big as the shark :)..... loved this picture!!
Outside by all the Nemo fish..... Hailey, Britt, Tanner, Mark, Me, Zac, Hailey and Bailey.... Again Drew was taking pictures and poor Taylor was stuck in his stroller
The kids outside of Epcot
This was inside a show at the Animal Kingdom Bug's life i think... the show was "ok" if we would have know how "Exciting" and "HOT.. HUMID" it would have been i think we would have passed....
Zac and some stranger looking at the camera weird... playing the African Drums at Animal Kingdom
Bailey.... showing everyone how it's done
Howe Family in front of Epcot
This was on the Jungle Cruz ... i have to say this was one of my most favorite rides in Animal Kingdom.... we got to see sooooo many animals and the guide talked about each animal we saw, it was very interesting and really a good ride.
I think this picture of the Elephant is beautiful the bight blue water it looks like its not real
Another of an Elephant... so huge and amazing. I think if i could be an animal one animal i would choose would be an Elephant....
The Giraffes ... there were a bunch of them. These pictures look like somthing you would see in a wildlife magazine
Zebra's .. i forgot the real name of them but it was a cross between a zabra and something else, very interesting!!
Rhino's and a ton of them too
Zac and his Bug glasses
Tanner and Ashley.... sporting their new fashion Bug glasses
Bailey... Bailey... Bailey... how many times do we need to tell you!!! Quite picking noses :)
We had just made it pass the gate and here comes Pluto (i think) the kids were the first ones and before we knew it there was a huge line... it was crazy!!!
Another animal we saw on the Jungle Cruz i don't know what they are called but look at those horns.
Fun times we had....

Family vacation Florida 2011

So here are some more random pictures from our trip to Florida....
We had so much fun.... i love to look through all these pictures and remember the fun time we had and how much i really do miss family!!! We had such a blast and i can't wait for the "next" family vacation!!!

One of Taylor's favorite things is Mickey Mouse... So we had to get him one, and he LOVED it and still to this day 4 months later he can't sleep without his Mickey!
Crazy Kids with Mr. Potato head.... Brianna Jace Zac and Hailey.... Some "new" cousins the kids got to meet and have fun with
Zac and Mr. Potato head
Downtown Disney... Ashley, Brianna, Jace, Hailey, Taylor, Zachary, Me, Marta, Galen and Jeremy and of course BUZZZ
Lego Land.... Ashley Zac and Hailey with BUZZ
Zachary Galen and Marta in front of the Rain Forest Cafe
Poor Taylor every picture i find he's in this stupid stroller.... i think he was kind of sad and tired of ALWAYS being strapped down in this thing.
The Howe's .... Britt, Mark, Bailey and Tanner
This was our group most of the time plus of course Drew who seemed to always be taking pictures.... Me, Taylor, Britt, Mark, Zac, Ashley, Hailey, Bailey and Tanner.
Jeremy and Zachary.... Zac loved to play around with Jeremy and he was such a good sport to play with Zac and be buddies.
Down Town Disney.... this lady was AMAZING!!!!! she looked like a figurine and would move very slowly, it took me a while to realize she was real when she reached out for the kids hand. This is Bailey and the "AMAZING" lady
Ashely and the "AMAZING" lady.... it was so neat to see her facial expressions with each child my kids thought she was so neat!!
This was a condo day.... the condo we stayed at was an entire day of fun in the sun and water... there were so many different pools and lazy rivers and miniature golf courses and water slides. We had so much fun hanging out at the resort and relaxing. My little man he loved the water coming up outta the ground... he was so funny to watch.
It took him a while to catch the water coming up from the ground and when he finally did it he was so excited
Hailey with the lady.... she was so pretty too
Bailey and Taylor .... he finally got a mouth full
Britt Mark and Tanner.... it was so nice to "relax" one day. We had so much going on it felt so good to not be in a crowd and enjoy being together!!
hahahaha i LOVE this picture.... i've gotta say he's just the cutest kid there is!!!
Scott.... we saw this street named Scott and i had to take it in remembrance of Drew's dad who always took him to Florida .... it was sad to be there without him and we all had our moments when we wished he was there with us.... we sure miss him and wish that he was there with us!!!
Taylor having a blast.... he loves water and loved playing in the fountains!
Our lovely van.... it was a piece of crap, we had fun being able to switch kids back and forth with Britt.... and the car behind us is Mark if you look closely enough
Disney World Castle
Our group .... again with Drew missing taking pictures not quite sure where Zac was when this was takin
This kid was sooooo heavy!!!! the rest of the group went on a ride he wasn't tall enough for and while we were waiting he had crashed in my arms..... we sure wore out all the kids and for Zac to sleep anywhere but a bed is very rare!!!
Nice one Mark ..... flipin the birds :)
Electric Parade.... Peter Pan and Hook flighting
Cinderella in her carriage
The snail off of Alice in Wonderland.... i hate this part of the movie, but it looked so neat all lite up.
The kids LOVED it!!! they didn't want to sit and watch a parade but they were sure glad when we decided that we were taking a rest and watching it
Bald Eagle with the American Flag.... Gorgeous!!!
Electric Parade
It's a Small World
Bailey and Britt
We really were having fun... this picture is pathetic :) i think we were all REALLY tired!!!
The first float of the parade..... I LOVED it one of my favorite things the music ...the characters ... it made me feel so young and the excitement..... the MAGIC!!!! was AWESOME!!!

Well i still have a ton more pictures of our wonderful trip.... but this is it for now....
