For the first time in probably two years, it was just the two of us. Meaning Ryan and myself! Ryan had a distributor conference in Orlando last weekend and we took the opportunity to sneak away from the girls. The last time both of us have been away from the girls was two years ago when I was pregnant with Maci and we went to another conference in Alabama.
We recruited the grandmas (plus grandpa Marty) to take care of the girls in our absence. Kenna couldn't get us out of the house fast enough and kept asking when we were leaving! While it did hurt my feelings a little, it was also a relief to know she was okay with us leaving.
As soon as we got to the airport we saw a ton of little kids with their parents and the guilt immediately set in. Who goes to Disney World without their children? The Brooker's do! We actually thought about bringing Kenna...for about 15 minutes but that idea was dropped about as quickly as came up. Three is just too little and she wouldn't remember it anyway. That being said...we've seen lots of really young kids having an absolute blast. Once again...feelings of guilt.
We've decided to plan a trip for late 2014. The girls will be 6 and 4 by then so hopefully they will remember it and appreciate the experience. It will be interesting as #1 Kenna will be in school and #2 that is probably when we will be either still building a house or just moving in. Not sure if a Disney trip will be in the budget but if we start saving now we should be able to make it work...maybe...everything is outrageously priced. After seeing all those excited little faces over the weekend, it will definitely be worth it.
