I know I have been slow with updates but I will beg forgiveness and plead trying to get settled as a reason.

We are here and having a great time. I'm going to try to give some basics and then try to find time to post details later.

Weather: It's hot, lol. We've been in the high 80s to 90s all week and the sun has been beautiful. We have had rain every afternoon and some evenings which has been a bit of an adventure but we've been told that this is how Florida is in the summer so we are learning to embrace it. We are also learning that we dry quickly : )

Parks: Zach is loving the parks. We go every day even if it's just to ride a couple rides. His favorite rides so far are, Splash Mountain, Winnie the Pooh, It's a Small World, Soarin, Test Track, Nemo, the Train, and the Monorail. Josh is loving the interaction with the characters and is quickly filling out his autograph book. He also likes Winnie the pooh and Toy Story Midway Mania. We're heading to Animal Kingdom today for the first time so I'm sure we will add more favorites.

Swimming: We may have to consider digging a hole in the backyard back home. The boys swim from morning to night. If we are not at the parks we are most likely in the pool. Zach gets up in the morning and wants to swim (Josh, of course, gets on the computer) then they get hungry take a break and we usually go to a park (it's a few degrees cooler in the morning and after dark). We come home in the afternoon and swim some more and then swim again after dinner if we are not going back to Disney.

Our house: This house is beautiful. It's a great location as we are only a couple miles from the entrance to WDW. It's nice without being too fancy to feel comfortable. I've been able to find grocery stores nearby and even a Sam's club. (yeah!!).

Gemini: Gemini seems to be loving Florida. She has a favorite spot out by the pool where she suns herself every day and loves walks around the neighborhood. She has not been to a park yet as we are seeing how hot it gets and when a good time is for her to go is but I think we are going to take her next week.

Well, that's our overview. I'll try to post more details later.
