Booked it, packed it... Indexing it!
Index and Introductions!
Hello! And welcome to my April 2013 Trip report staring…. Me! Tracey: The Persuader! Mummy, wife and all round bossy boots! I have a shameful addiction to shopping and as Darren would say, own far too many pairs of shoes [“for god sake woman, you can only wear one pair at a time!”]. I’m the writer of the trip reports and have been known to have a bit of a naughty sense of humour I do admit to owning a poncho or 5 But not one of them made an appearance on this holiday! I’m also a cool cat ‘cause I use twitter and even managed to send some tweets from the parks! Yay, go me! Darren: The financer! Daddy, husband and my best friend….ahhhh! He works super hard which in turn funds our Florida addiction!. We’ve been happily married for 12 years and met 16 years ago where we worked together at Haven as Entertainment staff! [Who say’s holiday romances don’t last ] I was a dancer and he a presenter and it was love at 1st sight Charlie: The Worrier! Son, big brother and lover of anything to do with America! He’s always anxious about the unknown and always thinks things are going to be worse then they actually are! Such a gentle soul too, very caring and loves his little sister. He’s also got a mad addiction to Angry Birds, but you already knew that didn’t you Ellie: The Magpie! Daughter, little sister and like a magnet to anything sparkly, pretty or glittery! Our little daredevil who loves to try new rides and doesn’t let anything faze her. Knows just how to play you by flashing you her big blue eyes, a trick she learned from an early age! Nanny Sandra: The Shopper! Owner of the largest bag collection I’ve ever seen. Not one for roller coasters but very fond of sitting with bags, cameras, prams and children whilst the rest of us go off and have some fun! Very fond of chocolate & cake and can be bribed into most situations with the promise of a slice of Key Lime Pie! Grandad Roy: The Pushover! Happy to just go with the flow. Lover of anything that comes in a burger form and as long as his tummy’s full, very pleasant to have around He’s also a OAR [Old age rocker] and loves nothing more than murdering songs whilst accompanying them on his guitar! Well that’s that out of the way so lets get on with things Booked it, Packed it, Pre Tripping it! Day 0: Just when things were going so well... Day 1: All I want is a DTD View! Day 2: Weather warning, Blizzard approaching! Day 3: Rainy days and Sundays... Day 4: A date with a Yeti! Day 5: It's all about the Magic! Day 6: Ooooh, a night out!

Hooray! You've started!
Oh my gosh Tracey, loving the Haven photo you kept that little beauty quiet! At least you and Darren have got your 'entertaining' skills to fall back on should times ever get hard! Can't wait for the first instalment! Kate xxxx |

Ooooh, I'm all out of synch, just read your other post and have stumbled across this little beauty! Love the Haven photo, just brilliant, so cute! The photos of the kids are just beautiful too - I mean Ellie is such an obvious little stunner but Charlie melts my heart. You describe him as a gentle soul and you can so see that about him, so precious.
Right then, I'm off to read the next installment. Oh no I'm not, already done that Jo x
