Why can't it just be warm??

We had a great couple of days in Disney. First we went to Animal Kingdom, which was fabulous. I loved the Lion King Show and Georgia's favorite was the animal hospital where they had actual veterinary equipment and video clips of animals getting check ups. Unfortunately we couldn't witness anything live, but it was still all Georgia could talk about. It wasn't warm, but at least it was sunny!

The next day we decided to try Hollwood Studios, but started the day off with Georgia spilling an entire chocolate milk down her back and INTO her pants (don't ask), ruining her ONLY warm (long pants) outfit. You would think after three Florida visits with record lows in the 40's I would learn to pack a few warm outfits, but I digress. So it was off to the Disney store to buy a $65 sweatsuit. Lovely! And it was cold. We had to buy blankets and head indoors every few minutes to stay warm. Yes, I know the rest of he country is in a deep freeze, but you're not supposed to need scarves and blankets in Florida!! My mom told me that it's only cold when we're down here, so we're not allowed to come down any more. :( Hollywood studios was really crowded and mostly a bust, but we did get a chance to see the Playhouse Disney live show. Hughie absolutely went nuts during the show, screaming, laughing and dancing his head off. It was like watching his dad at a Van Halen concert! It made the Hollywood Studios day totally worth the cold.

And I am sad to report that the Dips had their first loss this week to McDaniel Ithey are now 12-1. However, they were ranked #21 this week in the d3hoops.com top 25 (of the country). Woo-hoo! If they win again tomorrow it's likely they'll keep their ranking.


Papa with the kids on the beach (during one of the 2 out of 10 days it's been warm enough to hit the beach this trip, yes I'm bitter):



Our experiment with Georgia and pin curls. I loved it, but she prefers her hair straight.
