Rain, Disney and more RAIN!!

If I had to sum up our Disney trip in one word, it would be super easy – WET!!

After months and months of no rain, desert like, super dry conditions, Mother Nature decided it was time to give Florida a drink and by drink I mean 3 feet of water in 5 days, and I’m so not kidding. Of course that was the week we pick to go to Disney, so with our poncho’s in tow we made the most of it. To be honest it wasn’t that bad, the center of the state got much less rain than our coastal neighborhood did, so we had times each day where the sun was out and we stayed mostly dry. Our first day at Animal Kingdom we learned rather quickly that you don’t leave the poncho’s parked in the stroller while you go in to watch a show; we came out to a down pour and had to sprint to our stroller that was SOAKED!! That was the only time though that we got really wet, the rest of trip we kept our poncho’s with us – lesson learned! Despite the rain and the poncho’s (so not flattering!!) we had a pretty good time, it was nice to get away and relax and spend full days as a family.

This week Greyson started and Aqua Tots class (swimming lessons) and a 6 week Sports Camp. Yesterday was his first Sports Camp day and the focus was T-ball and Greyson loved it! He’s been hitting a ball at home for awhile now both from a stand and pitched. He was showing off his skills yesterday for sure! Also in the land of Greyson, he’s eating us out of house and home! I’ve never seen a 3 year old that can pack it away like this kid, yesterday he ate a full 6 inch sub from subway that was loaded with veggies (lettuce, spinach, green peppers, pickles, olives all on top of the turkey, ham, bacon and cheese!!) and 2 chocolate chip cookies!! That was after a big breakfast of eggs, Canadian bacon and an apple!! I swear he’s either eating, sleeping or running!!

Here are a couple of Disney pictures, we didn’t take too many because of the rain…
