disney (day 1)

well, as much as i'm still trying to get back in the swing of things, i wanted to share my awesome husband's latest accomplishment. a week ago today, jon completed the disney marathon! he never ceases to amaze me. we had a wonderful time enjoying the warm weather and all that disney has to offer. can't wait to go back when we have little ones to enjoy it with! i have many pictures to share, so i'll break them up into a post for each day we were there.
we left freezing kansas city at 6:00 a.m., after in my o.c.d. manner i checked and double checked all the doors and windows making sure everything was secure. (i even took pictures so i could ward off any thoughts that i'd forgotten something.) after a stop in houston, we landed in sunny orlando at 12:20 p.m. and then waited in the mile long line for the shuttle to the resort. seriously, it took forever! 
but finally, we were on the bus...
after settling into our room, we hit the food court because we were both famished from the travel.  $25 dollars later, we were enjoying cheeseburgers and fries outside on the patio.  we met these little guys and shared our fries with them.  i was scared they might peck my eyes out, but they didn't.  one of them reminded me of chloe...i don't know.  
then, it was off to the expo to pick up jon's race packet.  it was packed with vendors trying to sell the runners last minute gear, but being frugal as we are, we got out of there with just the free stuff!
jon signed the "magic of health" board on the way out.  what an awesome way to celebrate!  it's like they had it there just for us!
by this time, we were beat, so we rode back to the resort and confined ourselves to our room for the night.  our room had two full size beds, so we each got our own.  no way we were both sleeping in one of those!  it felt like we were in the 50's, but man did i sleep well!  i was in bed by 7:30 p.m. and didn't get up til 9:00 a.m.  much needed rest.
