We're back!

Our trip is over and we are very tired. Ben's baseball team came in 2nd. They did a really great job. Ben got a nice medal and the team got a beautiful trophy.

Lauren had a real fun time. There were lots of kids to play with. She was playing from morning till night.

Our schedule this weekend was a wierd one. Ben's first game in Winterhaven was Friday at 7pm.
The next game was Saturday at 8pm. We had a bunch of free time on Saturday and very little cash to spend. Our hotel was in Davenport which is about 15 minutes from Disneyworld, so after spending the morning at the pool with the team, Ben, Lauren and I headed to Downtown Disney. That is where all the shops are and the riverboat cruise departs. We had a blast! I think we spent$13.00 total and just had a great time. Most of that $ was from the kids riding the teacup ride there. It spins crazy fast and Lauren loves for Ben to spin her guts out!

On Sunday The team didn't have to play until 4pm, so we had another day to hang out, unfortunately we had to check out of our hotel by 11am so we were homeless for the afternoon. We decided to head back to Disney and eat lunch. We ate at Wolfgang Puck's restraunt and it was wonderful. After lunch we went to see the parrots at the Rainforest cafe there in Disney(Lauren loves the big birds).

We then headed back to the baseball field about 45 minutes away and the team won the first two games to get to the finals at 8pm and by then they were exhausted and didn't play to their full potential. They had a very long weekend and we were 2 1/2 hours from home. We got home at midnight(80mph). I don't know how their parents got them up this morning for school. Homeschooling does have benefits.

Lauren's face is healing, the swelling is gone. While at the baseball field she fell and took all the skin off her knee. Luckily I always carry band-aids and ointment with me. She looks like a battered child. Thankfully everyone there knows my kids well enough to expect scabs!

Hope everyone had a nice weekend.
Smiles, Lynne
