Make a Wish Trip- Wednesday, Magic Kingdom, going home

Wednesday was our last day. We enjoyed a wonderful breakfast,  let the girls ride the carousel several more times, checked out of our room and headed for Magic Kingdom for a few hours. It was a great time, my only regret was not going there on a different day and spending more time there. We enjoyed a show seeing Mickey, Minnie, Anna, Elsa and others, went on some fun rides and got a picture with Ariel.  We went back to Give Kids the World for one last lunch, grabbed our luggage, and headed for the airport. 

There were angels watching out for us because we were rear-ended on the way there. We were stopped at a stop-light and got hit by a guy going full-speed. We manage to walk away with only Nathan getting a bruise and some cuts, and Hannah had a cut on her arm. The rest of us were unharmed. A very kind sheriff came to our rescue and even gave us a ride to the airport. The flight was miraculously delayed so we were able to make it home that night. 

After an amazing vacation and a little adventure getting home, we were so grateful to sleep in our own beds that night.

Make a Wish- Tuesday, Gatorland, Candyland playground, fishing, swimming, getting tucked by Mayor Clayton

Gatorland was a fun, unique place. They were so generous, just like all the other parks. They also gave us a free stroller rental and a free family picture of us holding an alligator and a snake. We walked around and looked at alligators of all sizes, saw a show, went to a petting zoo, walked through a natural swamp area, and enjoyed some of the best slushies we've ever had. Later we went back to our room, let Lydia take a nap while Josh watched, and the rest of us went to the playground with the world's largest game of Candyland. Before dinner we went over to the pond and the kids fished and they each caught a fish! We quickly ate dinner and then let the kids swim for a quick 20 minutes before we had to go back to our room so that they could get tucked in Mayor Clayton. He was so funny and great with the kids. A fun memory!
