Peyton had a dessert and Jayden took a nap in his stroller.it was a beautiful day (again).the boys got the best souvenir of all, an Earl Of Sandwich cap.... which also fits me!we went back to the water slides one last time. Peyton is going to miss them like crazy!little Jay acting like the big boys going down the slides all by himself!takin' a ride on daddy!so much fun!

Buzz, Woody, & goodbye

today is our last full day.... our vacation went way too fast! but it was fun and it will be nice to get back into our schedule at home. we spent the day swimming (of course). the boys can not get enough of the pools and water slides. we took a few pictures of Orange Lake today. have i mentioned how much we love it here?they keep all of the golf courses looking so great!after a full day of swimming and a mini photo shoot at the Orange Lake beach (i will post those pictures at a later date), the boys put their Halloween costumes on.... Buzz & Woody!we went out on the golf course to look around and take a few more pictures. this was right outside our back patio.Peyton, i mean Woody, didnt want to get hot.... so he went shirtless on the course. a big NO NO in the golf world but no one was out there so he was fine. Petyon is such a goofball!i dont think they allow crack on the course either Peyton!after enjoying the view we headed over to my sister Brook's condo to visit. i promise Brook and her kids were there! Ugh! i didnt get any pictures of any of them. this is James (my other sister Meagan's son). LOVE LOVE him! this is Alexi (one of Meagan's SWEET SWEET daughters). she is SO GOOD with all the kids. Jayden loves her so much! see the sock with the hole? that's Brook's son Jacob. the ONLY picture i got of him.then we were off to the pool to say goodbye to Paulette and her family. i hate saying bye to her and her family every year. next year when i see her again she will have her new baby with her. i am so excited to find out what she has! (Caitlin & Timothy... Paulette's children). i love how they are cheesing it up while my two are just like OK MOM take the picture already!this is London, another one of Meagan's sweet daughters. i wish i could see all of them more!the guys played shuffle board....and all of the kids played and watched them. it was a great night to be outside and visit with everyone. (Bailey, Peyton, & Saige)Alexi and Lily!it was so great to see Mike. he just got home from being deployed and came straight to Orange Lake to see everyone.Jason had a great time visiting with him....and playing shuffle board.silly Grandpa!Grandpa and my cousin Tommy. he's such a great guy.... you should see the cakes he makes! i want one!Meagan & pretty Mady!me and Meg!Jayden and Caitlin were so cute together....a kiss....best friends!Mommy can i take this off now?Grandpa and Caitlin.... here comes Jayden in his diaper. not sure why all of sudden he was done with Buzz.The Valfre kids, the Mester kids, and the Schindlers'!they all had a great time together. i can't believe we fly home tomorrow night!

Downtown Disney

the sunrise was so pretty every morning. we took this from our back porch. ( i say 'we' because i have no idea who took what pictures on our trip.... i do actually let Jason use my camera sometimes. shocking i know!) today we went to Downtown Disney to shop around and to have the BEST SANDWICHES EVER at Earl Of Sandwich. i couldnt wait to get there! we saw this hot air balloon from the car and wanted to see what it was. ( i can't believe how dirty my lens got in just a few days).once we got to Downtown Disney we found out you can ride in the balloon to see Downtown Disney and everything else from up there. it doesn't actually fly around though. they just lower it, and raise it for about 20 minutes. Peyton and i were going to ride it but we were getting hungry. we shopped a little bit first and told the boys they could pick out one thing. Buzz stands in front of one of our favorite toy stores. Jayden was so excited! inside they had this great Pirates of the Caribbean Lego statue. totally made of Legos! amazing!both of the boys chose Buzz Lightyear Lasers. FUN! then finally it was time for LUNCH! my favorite! the boys entertained themselves while Jason ordered our lunch. 'mommy where is our food?'refreshing!then finally we went back to the condo to SWIM for the rest of the day. the boys had a blast in the pool. today we went to Water's Edge. such a great pool! the beach area is right off of Water's Edge. such a great spot to relax!i love all of the palm trees!once we got back to the condo everyone got their pjs on and relaxed for a little while. we love hanging out on our back porch. 'HI MAMA!'Jayden loves finding the moon.CHEEESE!relaxing after another long fun day.Jayden was worn out.time for bed for everyone.
