Have been enjoying the pool again this morning and will be heading to DTD after Epcot for some dinner and shopping.
Good news, indeed!!!!

Better late than never. I'm finally caught up on your PTR.

You can usually expect daily showers in Central Florida this time of the year. I hope you haven't been bothered by lovebugs--every year in May and September.

Hopefully the cranky memories will fade.
So true, I have been looking forward to giving him a big hug. It was harder than usual leaving him this time.

Welcome!

The love bugs havnt been too bad. They're here but not like I've heard others experience. I have seen more cockroaches than ever before. There was a giant black and yellow bug in the room today. I caught it under a cup, it was just too big for squashing. A CM vacuumed it up.

Ugh, I'm glad I missed that. There were a few scorchers down there but I heard home had a bunch of bad storms while I was gone.

Well we got back last night and I immediately went to pick up Conner from my dad and stepmom's. Thankfully he wasn't mad at me like he usually is when I've been away.

Some parts of the trip were excellent and others just really bothered me. I'll share the whole scoop when I get the pictures uploaded. Let's just say I'm really looking forward to my December trip.

I was thinking the same thing yesterday. I couldn't believe the trip had come and gone and we were heading home.

Don't you hate when it is over so soon?!? Glad there are parts of your trip that you will enjoy remembering.

Time is such a fickle thing. It felt like forever waiting for the trip to come, and now it's so quickly over. I remember just getting off the plane thinking how excited I was that it had finally arrived.

I was reading my journal last night on the plane, and there were definitely lots of good and really fun things. I just have to remember the good and try and forget the bad.

Welcome home! I'm glad you have lots of good memories, try to forget the bad, but not so much that you repeat it!

Looking forward to the full blown TR.
