Do I dare start this up again?

I'm starting to tire of the entirely public nature of facebook, so I think I may just return to my little blog page that I started so long ago and see if I can keep it up. It sure beats having to email everyone and let them know what's going on.
We just got back from a fun week-long trip to Florida, and of course, Disneyworld. We seem to have fallen into a vacation pattern of one summer Disney, next summer reunion, then repeating. We dodged a couple of tropical storms, but the last day it poured rain like there was no tomorrow. Unfortunately, that was the day we'd planned to hang around the pool.
Despite Missy getting an internal sty and having to wait at emergency care for 4 hours, and Matthew getting a nasty heat rash under his armpits, we had fun making the rounds at the Disney parks. Randy and I braved a time-share presentation so we could get 50% off our Disney park tickets. As awful as it was, it was still worth it. They weren't too happy when we told them Randy had lost his job so we couldn't buy it anyway. It's a great tactic, so give it a try if you ever sign up for one of those dumb things.
So we ended up going to 4 parks for only around $720 which is pretty good. (It's $74 for adults to get in now, and Missy is considered an adult.)
