Florida...The First Couple of Days

Well...an update. Shocking isn't it? In case you did not know, Sawyers Gone Wild went on the road to Orlando, Florida for a week! It was great!

We left the house at 4:30am on Saturday, August 5th. We almost did not make it to the airport because as I was loading babies into the van three police cars came up to our house!!! They informed me that a suspect was chased into the soccer fields behind our house. I grabbed the kids and waited 15 minutes or so before Phylliese and I ran into the car and left. I did not want anything stopping our trip.

The airport was not too busy. The kids were pretty wired that early in the morning. These pics show us on the first airplane.













We made it to Tampa without any issues. Then we got our rental car (a minivan of course) and made our way to Orlando. We stayed at the Vistana Resorts by Sheraton. Thanks to my mother and father-in-laws for the use of their time share and cooking breakfast every morning.

We swam on Saturday night. Went to church on Sunday morning. At a a seafood place called Shells for lunch. VERY GOOD seafood! (A side note...I have a hard time eating seafood in Oklahoma. The ocean is a little far from here.) After Phylliese and the kids napped, we swam again.

Monday we visited the Holy Land Experience. We got there just after lunch and wished we got there sooner. It was a great experience. They have a bible from the 1600s that has human blood on it from someone trying to spread God's word. Pretty amazing! We have other pictures from this visit. But they were taken by Raiden and he kept taking pictures of the model of Jeruselum. They are pretty blurry. :)
