Suicide Disney Trip
















I guess when Nate was in college he went on these Suicide trips...They would decide last minute where they were going on then go! No planning, crazy spontaneity. Well, he came home last Friday and said we were going to take a suicide trip to Disney! So we did. We literally found a hotel while we were driving. It was a great trip! We got a lot of looks and comments about little Grant. He was in the sling most of the time. Claire lost her shoe in the Castle's Moat and Disney gave her a new pair of crocs!! And got her shoe back. How cool is that? Claire had a great time and remembered all the rides. She loved meeting the characters and wished she had her autograph book to have them sign it...Jacob liked the stuff he went on and was okay about meeting the characters. He was a little timid and didn't understand "give him a hug" he would walk up and put his hands up like he wanted them to pick him up. He took a nap both days in the stroller which was great because I could nurse Grant, Jacob could sleep, and Nate and Claire could ride something that Jacob couldn't. Grant loved getting "held" for two days all day. Made the last week interesting as he has wanted to be held all day. But he is better now. We stayed at the Marriott World Center and I wouldn't recommend it. It was a great hotel and a great price but we really liked staying on property better. We'll be sad when we are in DC and can't hop in the car and go see Mickey! It was well worth the stress/shock and awe when Nate gave me the news. Gotta love my hubby!

Ahhh, how fun!!! Good for you guys! My fav pic is of Jacob with his fingers up his nose...too precious! Oh, and next time we are at Disney I am TOTALLY gonna throw all of my kids' shoes in the castle moat. Thx for the tip! :)Do you think if I threw my swim able kids in the moat I could score a free hotel room?
