Carson's little shadow


Nate and Alesa stayed a couple of nights with us over the holiday. Halene just LOVES Carson. She followed him where ever he went. All she wanted to do was copy his every move. Carson taught her some new Karate moves and how to play Hungry Hippos. Christmas day at Grandpa and Grandma's house Halene watched Carson jump off the stair steps and slide down the banister. (probably not a good thing to be teaching her!) We loved having Halene around for the short time she was here. Oh, and Nate and Alesa too!!!

Christmas

Thanks to Grandpa Perry got just what he wanted this year. Spike the Ultra Dinosaur!!!!!!
Shane's office throws a Christmas party every year for just the kids. Santa and his wife always visits with treats for everyone.

Carson and his Sunday school friends singing their hearts out at the Christmas program.

Well, Christmas has come and gone for another year. I posted just a few of the pictures of the highlights from all of our fun.

Vacation is over!

Well, we are home. The trip coming home was much more uneventful then the plane ride out there. (I didn't need a plastic bag.) Carson had the time of his life! Shane and I think every child should get to experience that at least once in their life.
Carson rode the Dumbo ride, the tea cups, race cars, watch the parade, and rode the elevator to the top of a building to ride a space ship. He even went down Splash Mtn. Shane convinced me to go also....I hated it!!!! It was a 55 foot down off- not for me. As you are free falling they snap your picture. We looked at the picture after we got off. Shane and Carson were in the front and all you could see was Shane's hands in the air, Carson holding on for dear life with his mouth hanging open and all you saw of me was my head b/t my legs! Carson and I only did it once...Shane went at least 3 times! That was all at Magic Kingdom which we went to on Monday.
On Tuesday, we went to Animal Kingdom and Hollywood studios. I loved the Bug's Life show and the Loin King show at Animal Kingdom. At Hollywood Studios Carson got to see the Power Rangers (i had no idea they were Disney!). Hollywood Studios is where Max Hickman works so Shane had someone to go on the Rock n Roller Coaster, and The Tower of Terror with. Max got them on right away without having to wait in the long lines.
Thursday night was our last night at Disney. Our hotel was the home to Chef Mickey's. A restaurant where you get it eat with some of the Disney characters. We were lucky enough to get a reservation. So Carson got have supper with Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy and Pluto. The look of excitement on his face was priceless.
Through out the whole trip Carson was a trooper. It was long days and very late nights. I took tons of pictures. And will post more later. I need to get to the piles of laundry sitting here.....
