It's been a super busy couple of days. Yesterday we attended another local church with a special needs ministry. This one was smaller and a bit more intimate. They had a fantastic program for the kids that used PECS and visual aids. We also found out that the pastor and his wife were the parents of a 17yo with Autism. We are hoping to talk with them more about this specific ministry.

In the afternoon we were laying low until Zach went a bit stir crazy and he and I ended up at Epcot for some rides. He loves Test Track, Soarin, and Nemo there. When we were done he kept asking for Splash Mountain so we contacted Mark, Jen, and Drew and we all met at Magic Kingdom. It is funny how some of the cast members are starting to recognize Zachary. We had a great time which was made even more funny when we were in Tomorrowland. There was a dance party going on with a bunch of disco/club music and we got Zach out of his chair to ride the people mover. Once out of the chair he went into his own little dance number. I wish so much I had a video camera. It was the funniest thing I had seen in a long time.

Today we hung around for the morning and then Josh and Ben went to the clubhouse to do some swimming with dad and Zach went back to Magic Kingdom. Apparently everyone had fun and Zach even came home with a new slinky dog from Toy Story 3. He's been wanting it for over a week. He was pretty excited about it.

We also got confirmation about our Dolphin experience next week. We are in and good to go for Zach to do a week long dolphin encounter. I'm really excited about being there!!

We have still not gotten our mail. I think we are closer as we have now spoken with a local postmaster general and they are working to get a fix on where exactly the mail is. We have decided to have it sent to Mark and Jen since it's been a bit if a fiasco here in Emerald Island.

Hope everyone is well.

  1. Sounds like you all are having a terrific time! Love reading the blog! Say hello to Mark, Jen and Drew for me!
    Had Erika's party yesterday and it was a huge success! 71 people came to visit with Erika...it was so wonderful to see everyone. We missed you for sure. Ed was looking for Brandon...they keep missing each other...I told Ed, come to St. Paul to worship after the summer! Aren't I a nice ex-wife?? Actually we all are getting along quite well. I really like Ed's new wife, very nice person and yesterday I met her daughter and son in law. We are a blended family for sure!

    Miss you all, keep writing and I'll keep reading
