This is how homeschoolers really are.


Disney World is Still in Florida

We went to Disney World for a week with Dan's family. Here are some pictures, taken by my brother-in-law with his enviable camera, to tell the tale:

Sadie and Sydney's bed:



Benny and Jack's bed:



Riding Kraken at Sea World. Front Row: Terri, Benny, Ashley, Andy. Second Row: Dan, Lydia. Yes, I rode Kraken.



Sadie in the play area:



How did Benny get so wet?:



Hollywood Studios. Benny battles Darth Vader:



Sydney and Sadie:



Belle and the children:



Aladdin's Carpets:



Sadie and Mom, going to Magic Kingdom on the ferry:



Expedition Everest. Front row: Benny, Ashley. Middle row: Dan, Andy. Back row: Terri, Lydia.



Did I take pictures? I *think* I did. They were just so violently inferior to Kevin's that I despair. But here's a link to my Flickr set for the Disney trip. There are many amusing photos there.
