4 1/2 Years Young

4 1/2 birthday Cakes

The Wonder Twins are 4 1/2 years young.  We celebrated their 1/2 birthday this year by baking a half cake - one for each of them.
It's become a bit of a tradition to celebrate the 6 month anniversary of their birth in addition to their annual event.  And why not.  They broadcast their age as if it were their proudest achievement (adding the half year as soon as possible).  They can teach us old fogies quite a bit in the art of enjoying age and life in general.  Celebrate early and often - or at least whenever possible.  Good motto.  Hopefully they will continue to embrace each year passing without any hesitation or cringing - well into their old age!

Walt Disney World  *  March 2012

Our trip to Florida went quite well.  Audrey & Ben have been on a plane trip every year of their lives and are continuing to be very good travelers.  Of course having a destination that entails visiting world renowned amusement parks almost every day of a 10 day trip kept them enjoying the ride.

We visited all 4 parks of DisneyWorld, Downtown Disney, Legoland  and Universal Studios.  The schedule was a bit grueling for Dave and I, but we managed to have a great time each day and got to see everything that was on the agenda and then some.  Their Uncle Joe and Aunt Annie recently moved down near Orlando so we stopped by their new digs and enjoyed some family time as well.

Looks like we'll be heading back East again in July this year, making it 4 years in a row that we've managed to travel back in the summer and see the rest of the family.

Party on...
