Disney Vacation!

Christmas Vacation!

A few weeks before Christmas John, Sam and I went to Disney World with John's parents. We had such a great time and enjoyed the 80 degree weather. Sam didn't know what was going on most of the time but he loved most of the rides ands shows. However, he was so scared of the characters. He loved them and pointed at them from far away but as soon as we got close to them he shrieked with fear! It was also our first time flying with Sam and that went surprisingly well. We had one flight that was completely full and Sam had to sit in our laps and you could tell he needed some space, but the other three flights we were able to give him his own seat and as long as he had food, drinks, and a movie on the portable DVD player he was pretty content. We were only gone 4 days, so we probably tried to fit too much stuff into too few days, but we had fun doing it. Sam was a trooper and was much more flexible than I was about most things. We know that he won't remember this trip, but besides his food, he was completely free and we enjoyed watching him see all the fun Disney stuff! We decided we will try to go back in about 4 years (or more) so that Sydney and Sam can both enjoy it and communicate their needs and wants. Most of the pictures were taken by Poppa Joe (John's dad) so I only have a few, but it gives you an idea of what we did.
