M-I-C-K-E-Y


Exciting news for Henry!

Henry and I were already set to take a two week break from the snow in sunny Florida at the beginning of February (and let me tell you, I am MORE than ready for some warmer temperatures). Then, the other day Mike found out that he had two conferences to go to during the first week of March - one in Orlando and one in Palm Beach. We decided to make a family trip out of it, so now not only do Henry and I get TWO Florida trips this winter, but since one of Mike's conferences is in Orlando we have given in and decided to take Henry on his first trip to Disney World!!!!*

I am very excited to take Henry there, and I hope he enjoys it as much as I enjoyed all my trips to Disneyland as a child. So, now the countdown begins...also, I am hoping he manages to grow one more inch or so before then so that he will be allowed on Splash Mountain :)

*(yes, yes, yes. I have spent years telling everyone that I didn't want to take Henry there until he was 4 or so. In fact, we have been planning that his 4th birthday would be there - which it still may be. And yes, Henry has no clue who Mickey is, or any other Disney character except Nemo. Yes, he may be terrified of all the giant characters, especially considering how clowns and Santa haven't been big hits yet. But, since we are already going to be there, how can we pass it up??? I am choosing to pretend I never made the anti-Disney arguments)
