OK, we're back from Disney. We started out the weekend a little rough. Emily woke up in the middle of the night on Friday night several times. At one point, she told me that her tummy hurt. I got her a bowl, to put by her bed, just in case. I wasn't sure whether she was sick or just bounced too much on that big slide at Chris's company picnic. Well, sure enough, she got sick at about 3:30am. She said that she felt better after she got sick and fell back asleep.
So, on Saturday morning, we took it slow, just to make sure that Emily was doing ok. We finally took off for Epcot around 11am. We arrived at Epcot around 12:30pm and did our tour around the world via the Food & Wine Festival. Had LOTS of yummy treats!!!
On Sunday morning, we got up and went to breakfast at Denny's. While at breakfast, we got a call from another DISer that we went on Cruisetoberfest II with. We totally forgot that they were at WDW for the weekend too. We made plans to meet up with them before the
MNSSHP. And, off to MK we went. We rode a few rides, and then decided that the girls needed a nap and we needed to do some house hunting just in case. We went around and found that most of the new houses in the area north of Orlando (Winter Garden area) are starting at around $375,000.
While our house is worth a lot more than we bought it for, I'm not sure that we can get that much for ours right now. But, we're going to talk to our real estate agent that sold us our house, and see what he thinks. Houses in this neighborhood are going for insane prices, so I guess we can see if we can cash in. I just want to keep my mortgage pretty much what I have now, maybe a tad more, but not much.
Then, we head back to MNSSHP. We didn't have PS (or ADR or whatever they are calling them now) for anything, but it was 4:45pm and we decided to take a chance. Crystal Palace said that it would be a 20 minute wait and we decided to go for it. We got our strollers parked, sat down on the bench and we were called. Had a good dinner and met up with our friends from Cruisetoberfest II. Emily was dressed as Belle and Madison was Snow White. We had a lot of fun trick-or-treating around MK. The new HalloWISHES was fantastic and the parade was really fun. We did some more trick-or-treating and then left around 11:45pm.
We slept in this morning and went to breakfast at McDonalds. We dropped Chris off at his "meeting" and the girls and I went to Downtown Disney to play a little bit. We went to the Once Upon a Toy store, the
Lego store. They played in the fountains by the Christmas store and then lunch at McDonalds. Then, Chris called for us to pick him up.
His meeting went well. He said that he really wants to think about this job offer. Basically, the job is his, if he wants it. He just has to decide. Basically, I told him that it was his decision, we could live anywhere. He has to be sure if he wants to change jobs. My only concern was that their health benefits don't start for 90 days, and I do not want to go without insurance with the girls for 3 months. We'll just have to negotiate it, if we decide to go for it.
Then, while in Orlando this weekend, our brakes started grinding. We took it right into Just Brakes as soon as we got home tonight. $750 later
, everything is fixed. I'm planning to go to bed early tonight.
I don't know why this is so funny to me. Maybe because I can think of a couple of people whose head I'd like to heap burning coals on! 
I'm so glad she felt better and you were able to go with your plans. Nothing like a visit to CentraCare -- we were on a roll for a while that it was a given we'd end up there with one of the kids.
