Shamu and Princesses with Guate Friends

This past weekend was spent in the HOT, HUMID Fall(hahahahaha) weather of Florida. We broke records several days in the past week for record highs and high heat indexes(over 100). I have lived in Florida all of my life and can't remember many times being as hot as I was. That being said, we had a BLAST with our friends! Leslie and her sweetie Abby were in town from Ohio(nothing like leaving weather in the 40s and having the 90s hit you when you step off the plane) and we were so excited to finally meet them!

On Saturday we went to SeaWorld to see Shamu. We also met Shelby, Amy and Corey and their kids(10 kids, all but one from Guatemala, between all of us). Unfortunately, we neglected to get all the kids together and get a picture. Sigh.

Leslie and I met for Breakfast with Elmo and Friends and the girls loved it.



















They were having their Halloween Spooktacular and had trick-or-treating and special characters which Gabriella really had fun with.







Cooper is such a good big brother and endured 2 days of Gabriella dragging him around and demanding that he push the stroller, hold her hand and take her on rides.









Sunday was spent at the Magic Kingdom. This was Gabriella's first trip(and my first trip in probably 15 years if you can believe it!). She LOVED it.

I made the girls matching Mickey zebra shirts. They looked so adorable!











Her favorite was seeing the princesses up close and personal. She's sneaking a peak at them while waiting her turn.

Visit with Titi Karen

We had a short-but-sweet visit with Titi Karen and her fiance Carlos. We went to Animal Kingdom and Gabriella had the best time! She said her favorite was the Cali River Rapids ride. As soon as we got off she said she wanted to do it again(but, the lines were long).





Checking out Goofy's whiskers.



Making sure Mickey doesn't have any cavities.





















She loved the frozen chocolate-covered banana. Her shirt? Not so much. Oxiclean didn't even touch the mess! Oh well, she had fun.





Ready for her wedding! She is very excited because she gets to be in Titi Karen's wedding in April in Puerto Rico (her mommy and daddy are pretty excited too!).






Some pool time on Tuesday.
