Look out Florida...Here we come!

We were up bright and early this morning for our long drive to Orlando.  It took forever to get Meredith to go to bed, and I was certain that she would sleep a good bit this morning.  Our plan was to get up at 3 am and be ready to leave by 4 am.  At about 3:35 am, Meredith sat straight up in the bed and said, "Mommy? Hello?  Is anyone in here?"  She didn't stop talking from the time she got up until we stopped for breakfast at 7.  She was so excited!

We were in some horrible rain for about 2 hours.  Meredith was determined to stay awake, and she did entertain us quite a bit.  We enjoyed about 30 minutes of this...

Dad had no problems sleeping, and snoring!

When we got to Orlando, I was so relieved!  What a drive!  We were greeted by Alex and Morgan outside, and Meredith quickly decided she needed to have her bathing suit on.  They have a beautiful pool and hot tub. 

They had a blast!  Tomorrow we're celebrating Patrick's birthday.  Monday, we're headed to Magic Kingdom!  Can't wait!
