Merry Christmas!!

This was why we wanted to get in and get out of DisneyWorld. It was time to relax on our Christmas Day!The condo we were staying at had an amazing outdoor area, and we hadn't had the chance to take advantage of it. We had gone a couple of evenings to the indoor part (you can see the glass wall that you swim under to get to the indoor section. But we had never been there during the day when it was warm enough to swim outside.
They also had a kiddie pool with a fountain, but that water wasn't heated so the kids didn't spend too much time in that one. There was also an indoor and outdoor hot tub. In the indoor pool section there was a volleyball net and a basketball hoop so there was tons to do. Austin is just about to get into the pool, he looks ready!I forgot the younger girls' floaties, so they either stayed by the wall or...
swam with Avery! Avery was very good to take care of them!
It didn't take too long for Ashton to crash! Poor thing got completely off her schedule this whole vacation! But she never complained! (Notice the huge chess board in the background? So cool!)My family enjoying the hot tub!And then Randy soaking in the sun! Awww... Merry Christmas, babe!We found a restaurant that was open on Christmas! This was the chain Chevy's. Sorry you were open, but also glad you were open!
Ashton sporting the reindeer ears! As long as you give Addie crayons, she is great in the restaurants! The next morning we took off again around 3:30am to catch our flight home! Have a mentioned yet how much fun we had?!?!

Randy's parents do the timeshare stuff, so we stayed at a bluegreen resort just outside of DisneyWorld and rented a car so we could see more of Orlando than just the park. It was crazy crowded! I didn't realize so many people spent Christmas at DisneyWorld! But we got used to it after a while. So, crowds were crazy but weather was perfect!! Guess you can't have it all! :)
