Christmas 2013
For our Christmas we were afforded the extremely unique opportunity to meet with the Norris family in Orlando, Florida. It had been years since we had all been together and it was indeed a blessing to spend time together. We are extremely grateful to Mom & Dad Norris for this opportunity.

For our portion of the clan it was so nice to see the sun again. We desperately needed to get out of the grey as it so negatively affects us all. It was also great to just have time to relax with Ryan and the kids. Not that we really relax though. We got up early everyday and were in the parks right after opening or at opening to beat the crowds and to get the most out of the experience. I just want to do as much as possible when given the opportunity as I will never have this opportunity again with my children at these ages. CARPE DIEM!!!!

This was my first Disney experience, and although I am not a HUGE convert I will say that I would go again. It was thrilling and just great way to spend time with the kids and each other.
We also visited Univeral Studios, Orlando and that was so fun too. The older kids had fun on the thrill rides and the little ones loved Suessville.

The only thing that I would have done different for my clan is that I'd do mre Christ and less mouse. But there is always next year to improve.
