Disney 2020

The first week of March, we headed out to Disney World for a family vacation.  It was Colin's spring break from college and also the week of his 20th birthday.  
This trip was made possible with Gran and Pop's help.....and we are so thankful they were able to join us!
Our drive down provided us a bit of time to stop near the town we used to live in, Debary, and see the manatee in their natural habitat.  The springs in Florida are always beautiful!
We began our first night there with Cheesecake Factory....Gran and Pop joined us and we all were thrilled to be together.  
This trip, we visited Animal Kingdom, Magic Kingdom and Epcot.  We all hung together which was wonderful.  Being in a large family, I love seeing how the bigs interact with the littles and vice versa.  It's a beautiful picture most of the time and makes my heart full.
We learned that Maryn is still frightened of roller coasters....she says she is afraid she is going to fall out.  I get this.  I was close to her age when I rode Space Mountain for the first time.  I rode with Kellie, my sister, and I was terrified.  I will always remember Kellie yelling to me, "I think that was the last drop..." and then we dove down into the biggest drop of the ride.  I got off in tears and swore I would never ride a roller coaster again. Ever.  Of course, I have ridden many roller coasters since then but that experience is one that will always be in my memories.  
Maryn is 7 and I told Ryan many times during this trip that she is the perfect age for Disney.  Tho all of the children had a great time, Maryn is the one that you could feel the magic in.  Pure joy!
