The 411 on our vacation

Our vacation began with the unexpected and ended with more of the same. We were driving on the Interstate, on our way to Florida, when a rock popped up and shattered the side window of our van. And yes, Isaiah was sitting right next it. Thankfully he stayed calm. Judah slept through the whole thing and Gabe freaked out. He was so afraid someone was going to start bleeding. I guess we won't be expecting him to be a doctor! We made one night's stop at the Covenant House, which is always refreshing, and off to Orlando the next day with a brand new window. The resort was so nice. The pool area had an enormous pirate ship in the middle of it that looked similar to a kiddie area in a water park. They had a water slide and two hot tubs. The kids loved it. We went to Sea World, Magic Kingdom, and Animal Kingdom. It was fun but so hot and tiring. I'm really not sure if it was worth it for us or the kids! My favorite day was, and always is, the shopping at the Outlet Mall. On the way home, we got news that our A/C went out while we were gone. We couldn't get anyone over to fix it for 3 days! Thankfully my mom lives in Hammond and has two extra bedrooms! We finally arrived home last night and went straight to Gabe's tee-ball game. Today was my first official day back and it's great to be home! Thank you Jesus (and Aaron) that I have such a nice and comfortable home! And thanks to the Marix's who always make vacation fun and memorable!
