Vacation 1

We started our vacation on Thursday morning.  We arrived at the gate on time, boarded the plane on time and headed out to the runway.  We were in line for about twenty minutes and then it was our turn to be number one for take off and LGA was shut down due to an incoming storm.  I had been watching the radar and praying we would get off the ground, but we parked on the tarmac with about 50 other planes.  After about an hour and a half, we finally took off.  The kids were fantastic. 

We picked up the rental car and I drove while Big Daddy manned the GPS.  We circled the airport twice and because I couldn't figure out the car it was a slow and jerky. It was so bad that Donny told me not to press on the pedal so hard. Apparently the car we rented has an option to drive as a standard or automatic.  I was circling the airport in first gear.

Friday was Big Daddy's birthday.  I found a vegan bakery in downtown Orlando.  We told Donny we were going to pick up Big Daddy's birthday cake.  We entered the bakery and Donny became very quite and I could tell he was sad.  He asked if there was anything in the store he could eat.  I told him he could eat everything and could pick out whatever he wanted.  I thought he would be really happy but he was afraid.  It tool awhile but he finally tasted a cupcake.  We came home with a box of six and shared all the different flavors.

Waiting for Mommy and Donny to arrive on the shuttle bus.

Looking forward to take off.
