3 Christmases, 2 Amusement Parks, 1 Zoo, and a Very Long Drive

WARNING - PICTURE HEAVY POST

We just got back from a very long drive to Florida for Christmas. But we have been celebrating Christmas for about 3 weeks now. We celebrated at our house a few weeks ago so Santa could get Libby's new doll house to her before we left. Then we celebrated with my parents before we started our drive to Florida. On Christmas day we celebrated with Mike's parents in Rockledge, FL. Libby cleaned up of course - being the only grandchild on both sides of the family sure has it's perks! I won't say that she's spoiled rotten, but she's pretty well loved by all.

Before we made our way to Rockledge we stopped at both Disney World and Sea World. Would you believe that the day we were at Disney was FREEZING. The high was 60 degrees and after dinner we needed our winter coats because it was about 40 outside. We even had to buy snow hats there. Of course, Libby's says "Princess" on it and she told us this week that she is in fact a princess...actually it was "Wibby a priness". Our highlights of the day at Disney were meeting Minnie and Mickey Mouse, meeting Daisy Duck, and riding the tea cup ride 5 times! That's right, Libby wanted to ride it 5 times (well, actually she would have gone more but we wanted to do other things). She loved It's a Small World, riding Dumbo, and riding the Magic Carpet ride also.


Here is a VERY excited but cold Libby riding the tea cups.


At lunch waiting to meet Winnie the Pooh, Tigger, Piglet, and Eeyore. Too bad Libby didn't want to hug any of them. She just wanted to say "hi."


Meeting Minnie and Mickey was awesome. Too bad our camera had some technical difficulties during this time. But cute picture none-the-less.


Yet another ride on the tea cups - notice the same look in her eyes!


Tea cups again....


Seeing Pluto was fun but Libby thought his feet were too big and he smelled too much like our dog to hug him.


Daisy was the first character she saw that day and was thrilled.


At Sea World with Daddy looking at the manta rays.


We got to Sea World and happened to run into my cousin and aunt unplanned. How crazy is that?!


Here we are at the Brevard Zoo with Libby styling in her sunglasses...we stopped in every state along the way to get her some...of course, Mom and Dad were forgetful when packing and forgot hers at home! Needless to say, the rest area outside of Orlando had some. I'm not for sure what animal we're looking at but it was a very pretty zoo.
