Disney Spring Break 2009

We are home and trying to re-adjust to "real" life. We had a wonderful time cruising around the Eastern Caribbean. We enjoyed experiencing the island of St. John...a short water taxi ride from St. Thomas, which we also love. We had great weather, food, entertainment and the kids even behaved themselves. The ship was full of people from Texas (we knew none of them, Texas is a BIG state.) There were also some big LDS groups...30+ friends traveled together from Mesa, AZ and then some famiy reunions...you know, the kind where the grandparents pay for ALL the kids and grandkids!!!(Who can afford THAT!?) Must be nice!!! j/k Disney is a magnet for conservative folks...good, clean, wholesome entertainment! We surely missed William. He adds so much to our vacations. But we are proud he is a missionary, and doing so well! He certainly would have come in handy during the Disney Tune Trivia game...we did win, though. My kids are Disney kids...57 correct answers out of 60! We smoked everyone! Grant also won playing "Who Wants to be a Mousekateer" with Bill as his adult helper! Christine sang in the Family talent show...in a nutshell...we kept busy and had a ton of fun! Now back to reality. Bill is back in Houston and the kids are busy with homework! We are so grateful for the memories we made and the fun we had together!

Grant and Christine were on the Mickey Mania show...they were the "Green Goofys" and came from behind to tie for first! They were awesome!

A crazy family photo at the "Character Breakfast" on Grant's birthday! The waiters make these silly hats for everyone...do we look dumb, or what?

Grant celebrated his 11th birthday and these glasses were given to him by Garrett!

  1. You guys look like you had so much fun! Jealous. Jill comes out here Friday and we're going to send William a package...to do that we need his MTC address!

  2. Great time. Looks like quite a tradition. I am sure that when you and Bill are Grandparents you will take the entire Casper clan on a cruise.
