Game Night-Qwirkle

 

This game is tons of fun! It reminds me of scrabble in some ways (minus the words). You have to make matches using the common denominator of either shape or color.I am very visual, so I think it's fun.

Vacation, Part 5

On our last full day in Florida, we went to the Animal Kingdom. We usually go to Epcot (which is the nerdiest, therefore our favorite), but we thought we would check out the animals this time.

As we drove into the parking lot, Victoria lost her breakfast. I think she ate too much. Her clothes and carseat were an absolute mess! The poor little thing had to get on the tram in her skivvies. Once we were inside, the Disney people laundered her clothes and carseat cover! We were so thankful! As we couldn't pick it up until later, we had to buy her some clothes.

Problem #1: We aren't rich. We just spent our inheritance on our tickets. The clothes in the gift shop were priced at obscene costs.

Problem #2: As Victoria only wears dresses and skirts, finding one of those would be a challenge as well.

Problem Solved: We managed to scrounge (under the quizzical eye of the cashier, who was probably wondering why we let our toddler wander around in a diaper) and we found a long dress with animal print Mickey Mouse ears. It had a sun-dress smocked top that had to be covered, so we found a matching tee shirt to go over it. Victoria managed to get a new $50 outfit as a souvenir!

Do you know why a raven is like a writing desk?

We loved Animal Kingdom! The safari was fun, as well as the roller coasters. We had beautiful weather for our whole vacation. Since Animal kingdom closes earlier, we hopped to Epcot for a couple attractions, some lovely British Fish and Chips, and fireworks. It was such a wonderful way to end our trip!

Vacation, Part 4

The next day, we went to Island of Adventure. They have different themed sections to this non-Disney park. Oh, the thinks we could think! :)

Victoria loved the Dr. Suess Merry-Go-Round.

One fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish...

I love armor!

He looks a little upset.

We aren't big superhero people, but I couldn't resist taking a picture of them.

Vacation, Part 3

The above picture is of the constuction going on at Disney's Magic Kingdom. I love how they cover the work! Most of my pictures of the cast characters are of themselves alone (between kids in line) or with someone else's kid. The lines get to be too long to wait.

Is she snarling?

I guess the line was short for Stitch. I'm not the biggest fan of Stitch, but I was so shocked to see Colin could get his picture taken with someone, that I had him do it.

The White Rabbit.

The parade!

Aargh!!!

The fireworks were splendid!
