Hope you and the boys are having a blast with Chuck!
We've been lucky the rest of the time Chuck has been in the navy. He never had to be deployed to a war zone so I'm thankful for that. I think it's those spouses (and servicemen/women) who deserve the credit!
I hope you get to try out Fort Wilderness! We really enjoyed our cabin night there and would stay there again (in a cabin. lol) And as far as onsite and offsite, of course we prefer onsite, but the offsite deals are REALLY good. And sometimes the deals win out! It's nice to have options and be happy with all of them. We've realized that the magic of the trip overall is still there even when you are offsite!
Glad you felt the on-property Magic! With three kids I don't blame you though for considering the off-property options. Disney is definitely not the best or most affordable when it comes to families larger than 4!
Carissa,
Great job! I enjoyed hangin' with your family on this! Thank you so much for including all of us in your adventures! You are great people. I think your final thoughts were real. There is definitely a trade-off either way you do it. As long as you and the family are happy, that's all that matters. It's good that we live in a country that lets us have these kinds of choices.
Welcome Home, Chuck!
I'll be watching for that Williamsburg report. Have an awesome time!
Hope you and the boys are having a blast with Chuck!
I think that's enough to make you very, very thankful.
I know you guys will have a great time together all through the holidays!
Hi Carissa! So sad this is coming to an end...remember when we were all planning together? **sigh**
I hope you and the boys are enjoying your time with Chuck.
Looking forward to hearing about Williamsburg. It looks like Dan will be coming to Virginia Beach in April for his Band/Chorus trip and taking a trip there as well.
Hey,
I finally got back to your report, and all your pictures are gone.
Did you exceed your limit with photobucket?
I read your tr faster, but it stinks, not seeing pics.
Hope you are having a good weekend,
and I told my dh we are pulling our camper down, I want to stay at Fort Wilderness.
I'm sure you and the boys are enjoying having Chuck home. I'm sure he is happy to be home too.
Can't wait to read you mini TR on Colonial Williamsburg. We never made it over there, but I sure wanted to.
You had a beautiful day for your trip to Williamsburg! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Sounds like a fun day! I've always wantd to visit Colonial Williamsburg... I'll get there someday.
Glad you are enjoying family time with Chuck!
I remember visiting Colonial Williamsburg when I was a little girl. All I wanted was a hand-made broom...that much I recall vividly!
Looks like a beautiful family day!
How far of a drive is it?
Just so cool to live that close to so much american history.
It's so nice that you had that fun family time. I have said for years I want to go to Williamsburg, but who know if I ever will. I only seem to find my way south when I have time off.
We planned a trip to Busch Gardens Williamsburg once,
but we ended up
going to
Disney World.
I would have loved seeing that house. Those green chairs are interesting.
That's a cool picture of the horses and carriage. If you took that lady out of the back, it would look like the real thing. Did you guys ride?
What a fun time at Williamsburg! I would love to take the kids sometime, and your pictures are so cool! I love that the boys weren't afraid to ask questions.
I remember the Norfolk tunnel. Not a big fan of it!
Thanks for all the info Carissa. We're actually going to Williamsburg for Thanksgiving so this was very timely for us Looking forward to your final final thoughts.
It looks like you had a great Williamsburg visit! You had a beautiful day. Thanks for the pretty pictures and report, they make me want to go there even more.
Glad you had a great trip and wonderful family time with Chuck!!! Your pictures are great. You are right, that woodwork is just gorgeous!
That's me in front of you !!
Looks like a very interesting place to visit and even better that it was free
