During our last full day in Orlando before we headed to the Bahamas on the cruise was spent hanging out and exploring FL. We decided to take an airboat ride from Big Toho airboats in Kissimmee. Our captain was a great old salty dog who really knew the area and the wild life. We saw a few birds, a couple alligators, and beautiful plants and trees.
The highlight of the day was when we got to hold a small alligator called “Fluffy”. The kids were so fascinated but hesitant at first. Once they saw us holding it they wanted a turn and ended up loving it.
I’ve been super busy at work since we got back from our Florida vacation, but since i’m home sick today i finally had a chance to add them to the gallery. If i get around to it, i might tell some stories about our vacation too, but for now you can view the photos in my Photo Gallery
I was putting Emma to bed tonight and as I went in for the hug and kiss she pulled away and said,
Emma: “Oh Po, your chin is so pokey!”
Me: “Oh, sorry!”
Emma: “That’s ok, just go and cut your chin off!”
Me: “Ok…”
Emma: “No Po, go and cut your whole face off!”
Me “…”
Emma: “No Po, just kidding…”
Ever since we bought our house I’ve been talking about putting in ceiling fans in all the bedrooms. We finally quit talking about it and went to Lowes to buy one yesterday for our master bedroom.
It took me most of the day today to work out the wiring in the attic, put in the new joists and mounts, and then make sure nothing caught on fire when I tired it on.
The new fan works great, I’m really glad we put it in, and I think it will greatly increase the value of our home.
Lately we’ve been bribing Evan to try new things. He’s saving his money for an iPod Touch, so he’s very interested in making money. Tonight the new food was lettuce, and we offered him 1 cent for every piece of lettuce he ate. Of course, he tried to bargain and said,
Evan: “What about 1 Million dollars for every piece of lettuce?”
Michelle: “Sure, why not…”
Evan: “Really, 1 Million dollars? WOW… Thats enough for FIVE iPod touches!”
