Disney

Got some Rhubarb today from a co-worker, can't wait to make some Strawberry Rhubarb Jam! Will start it tomorrow morning so I can can it tomorrow. Last year I only got 2 - 16oz jars of this, I'm making them 8oz jars this year so I'll probably end up with only 4 (unless I get another batch of rhubarb later). This tasted so good and the kids liked it too so I'll probably end up using a bunch of it next fall for Connor's school lunches.

It's been 3 weeks since we were in Disney - we were down there Sunday-Thursday. Sunday night we went to Downtown Disney, Monday was spent at Animal Kingdom, Tuesday at Magic Kingdom and Wednesday at Hollywood Studios (formally MGM). We had a blast every day and it was a lot of fun and I'm so glad that John & Carol took us - however I should have listened to them and just taken Connor out of school for a week instead of going during Spring Break, it was just too busy to really enjoy all that Disney has to offer. I'm glad we went though and I can't wait till we get to go again - just not during the week before Easter. Oh, and FYI - sports star sighting - Gregg Jennings from the Green Bay Packers was at Magic Kingdom the same day we were!

All Star Sports

Pretty lazy morning over here, which is always a nice change! Ate some wonderful french toast & sausage for breakfast - which everyone in the house always loves. We have a birthday party to go to today and then we'll be heading over to Aunt Missy's for dinner - I made some wonderful looking peanut butter brownies to take over, can't wait to try them!

3 weeks ago we landed in Florida to take the kids to Disney World! The resort we stayed at this time was All Star Sports. It was a pretty neat hotel with two swimming pools - one which was right outside our room which was nice. The "cafeteria" they had offered a pretty good range of food so everyone was happy (the pizza was awesome) and they had cups for $15 that you could use the entire time of your trip to refill, so Scott and I shared one of those (poor Scott ended up drinking a lot of Diet Coke, I hate regular soda, but he can tolerate diet, so my choice won out). The worst part of the hotel was the Internet. If you needed to use the Internet for your stay, don't stay here. I would have to log on, get 2 pages into what I was doing, then I'd have to log off and log back on, then get 2 pages, etc. It was horrible. If you don't care about Internet access, then by all means stay, it was pretty fun there, but if you need Internet access, don't stay!

Frontier

This is the second time I've tried to create this post - they changed the format of the website so I'm having some troubles with it - grr! Cleaned out my closet last night, got a whole box of stuff to go in the garage sale in 2 weeks. Also, today we made a Menards run - got a few seeds for the garden, can't wait to get planting in a few weeks!

 

 

So we left for Disney almost 3 weeks ago and we took Frontier Airlines both ways. Both ways there were delays, yuck! On the way there someone called in sick, so we were delayed about an hour - don't they have better policies in place to prevent this? On the way back the flight before us was delayed for some reason, which made us delayed. On the way there it was nice that we got to watch TV for free but we did not get that on the way home. Instead we got a warm cookie and a cup of coffee to enjoy. Which do I prefer? Well the coffee and cookie were nice I had snacks in my bag so I think I would have preferred to have the TV to watch - oh well I guess. Both kids did amazing on the plane, both ways. Connor almost had a little freak out when he realized he was on a plane but he calmed down and did amazing! Not sure when the next flight will be but for the kids it'll probably be awhile - maybe another trip to Disney when Savannah is older!
