Plane ride

Thank goodness for electronic devices and lollipops!! Successful round trip plane flights to/from Florida

Fancy hotel castle

One of the hotels we stayed at had a fancy castle (Gaylord Orlando). We visited multiple times during our days there. One of which we spent over an hour in this castle. Which I might point out was significantly longer than any Orlando attraction we spent an arm and a leg to see, ha

Roller coaster

Vera went in her first "roller coaster" at Lego land. She was a natural...

Lego land

Mom and nana took the kids to Lego land while dad had to work

Beach

Also spent some time at the beach and pool in Florida

disney parade

vera also got a belle dress and was pretty stoked for the disney parade at our magic kindom trip...

 (after we saved our seats at the parade, vera and another kid spent the 20 minute wait for the parade to start streaming video on cell phones) (actually i felt a little silly handing her my phone so we could just zone out a few minutes, until i saw all the other kids waiting and looking at phones too, sign of the times? awesome parenting?)

our favorite float - with anna and elsa

Cinderella's castle

Pretty stoked to visit cinderella's castle

disney

we went to florida a few weeks ago.  including an obligatory day at disney 

vera loved meeting the princesses.
