A Visit





from Grandma and Grandpa Porter...so much fun. I love the way they play with the kids. We went down to Orlando and picked them up. The day before they arrived Brandon and I went to the temple, we went as a family to Downtown Disney and ate at the Rainforest Cafe which was fun. I had the best salad with some awesome pecans. It may not sound like much but I saw someone else eating and stopped to ask them what they were eating (no manners, but it looked that good) and they said they were loving....I did too!



Jungle Chop Salad - Romaine and Iceberg lettuce, black olives, cucumbers, carrots, red cabbage, candied pecans, blue cheese crumbles, dried cranberries and grilled chicken tossed in a raspberry vinaigrette dressing.



Hannah didn't like it when it "rained" in there. She was afraid the elephants were going to come after her.



We stayed in a hotel for two night, the first night was not fun at all cause we were in a room with two small double beds. Hannah and I did not sleep so I knew they had a semi family suite so I said Brandon we gotta upgrade and they upgraded us for free. The suite had a full/queen bed and the a closed off room for the kids with bunk beds and a twin with their own tv. They loved it!



Anyways we took a tourist packed trip home in which we visited the Desere Ranch, an orange grove cause Rhoud wanted to pick an orange from a tree and let me tell you it was an excellent orange. Oh my! Then St. Augustine cause Susan's wanted to go there for some time, we just stopped for a bit but it was nice, the sun was setting, we'll visit there again. And then we stopped by my dad' where Linda had a scrumptious dinner made. So we made a three and half our trip home into a twelve hour trip. Not like us at all, very adventerous. The kids did well thanks to our rigged dvd player and Grandma and Grandpa playing games with them.
