Downtown Disney
After we ate at Planet Hollywood we walked around with the kids ooing and ahing. “This is what The Magic Kingdom is going to look like tommorrow,” I told them, “except with rides!” They were so excited. The Lego store was so fun! Joy is the child of mine who loves Legos the most. She… [continue reading]
Planet Hollywood Orlando
After we debarked and clumsily drug our seven selves along with all of our luggage back to our van, we headed to Downtown Disney. None of us had ever been there, but I’d heard that it was a fun place. We didn’t have any set plans for this day except to get our hotel and… [continue reading]
Bobby is One Year Old!
Oh I felt like I didn’t do his birthday justice. There I said it. Yes, I told myself over and over that he’s one, and that he’ll never remember it, but I still felt bad that I didn’t make him a cake and get him a balloon and you know, just make it special for… [continue reading]
Freeport Harbour Grand Bahama Island

Nassau Bahamas Historical Tour
This is the one excursion we took. We left the four older children at Camp Carnival and just took Bobby with us. Before we cruised we didn’t know if we would feel comfortable leaving the kids, but once we saw how it was run and how much the kids loved it, we were totally fine… [continue reading]
Carnival Cruise Formal Dinner
Our second night on the ship ended with formal night. I had been looking forward to dressing up and the food was reported to be the best on this night. But after swimming and letting the kids go their activity while we strolled the ship, there wasn’t much time to get ready if we were… [continue reading]
Eaves dropping on board
After we spent a couple of hours on the water slides we took the older four kids back to Camp Carnival. They were going to be painting and my kids didn’t want to miss it. That was fine with us. Jason and I took advantage and went to sit outside where we could enjoy the… [continue reading]
Day 2 aboard the Carnival Sensation: At Sea
Our second day on the ship we were at sea all day. I think this was my favorite day. I really enjoyed looking out at the water. It was really calm. As soon as the kids began waking up we all got ready and went to the fancy dining room for breakfast. They even had… [continue reading]
