Hollywood Studios







I liked this park the best, easy to navigate, seemed to be the most current with lots of shows to boot.  The weather on this day went from mid 70s, to windy, to rain, to cold.  It was the turning point from warm weather to cold on our trip,  Fortunately the rain was brief and even on the cold days the sun was out in full force.  We ended up spending a little over a half day at Hollywood and then went to Downtown Disney at night for dinner (and to visit the famous Lego store of course).

Disney Trip








We took our first trip to Disney last week, weather was nice -- couple pool days, couple winter jacket days and barely any rain.  The kids had a great time, we pretty much hit up every ride.  One night Madison insisted we go on Space Mountain, at midnight!  It was about 12:30 by the time we got on, she loved it -- from that point on I pretty much carried her from Magic Kingdom all the way to our hotel, we made it back at 1:30am!

Superbowl Sunday - Seahawks TD at Half


We were snowed in for the Superbowl, so we decided to have a family party.  Actually the snow wasn't a factor in that decision, Dylan had been planning a Seahawks party for the past two weeks.  He watched every second of the game and definitely enjoyed the play call at the end of the 2nd quarter, when the Seahawks decided to go for a TD instead of playing it conservatively with an easy FG -- see for yourself, I think he was slightly excited by the outcome of this play.

... I didn't tape the ending, but what I can tell you is, he shared an equal and opposite set of emotions after the ball was intercepted in the end zone to end the game.

Snow Way!










Tons of snow fell last weekend, over a foot!  I believe it ranked 4th in metro Detroit for the most snowfall in 24 hour period.  The result was equal to two snow days, which the kids thoroughly enjoyed.
