The End of Part One of our Vacation

We went back to Universal last night and rode lots of rides. The park was really empty so we were able to get on and off of rides very quickly. We ate dinner again at Margaretville. The conference will be ending in a few hours. Rick and I will then go and stay at my favorite hotel in Universal. I love staying in the park it is very magical.

I think we will keep our season passes for another year. We have had then for several years. When Caroline comes home we might switch to Disney .

My mom called to tell me that Lily and Violet are doing well. Devon is taking care of Kitty. Lily and Violet are going to be fat when my mom is done with them.

A Quick Getaway

Rick and I spent a few hours at Universal last night. We have gone to Universal many times. (We have season passes) However we have not been to Universal since the Simpson Ride has opened. So we ran into the park last night to have dinner and ride the Simpson ride. We will return to night with some friends to ride a few more rides.

Rick is in Orlando for a conference I decided to just tag a long. Today has been very relaxing. I have read the paper and continued reading a book. It really is nice not to have anything that I have to do.

Christmas Cookies

Nara and I made Christmas sugar cookies today. We hope to make Gingerbread Men tomorrow. We decided to decorate with a little bit of a funky flair.

Christmas Dance

Last weekend Nara had her second hip-hop performance at a local Christmas Fair. She did an excellent job. Rick and I are both very proud of her. Due to a change in the hip-hop class schedule Nara will no longer be taking hip-hop classes. She will go back to Ballet in January. Enjoy the pictures
