Spring Break Magic

We just finished our Spring break and it was full of magic.  I will list the magical events, so you don't decide not to read on because there are too many words.

#1  We actually went on a real vacation.
#2  The kids were really good on the trip there and back.
#3  My sister flew in to Orlando to vacation with us.
#4  We got to go to the beach and play in the ocean.
#5  We ate the yummiest rock shrimp ever!
#6  It only took an hour to get our over-priced, not so tasty food at Universal.
#7  Although closed for most of the day (due to crowds) we made it into Harry Potter world.
#8  After waiting an hour plus, the kids got to buy wands at Ollivander's wand shop.
#9  We got to go to the beach again and recover from Universal.
#10  We went to the Magic Kingdom on St. Patrick's day and it was truly magic.
#11  We got to ride the rides that we wanted to ride.
#12  We saw the characters that we wanted to see.
#13  It took 10 minutes to get our tasty food at Disney.
#14  We stayed at the Magic Kingdom for over 12 hours with no melt downs.
#15  We SOLD OUR HOUSE while we were riding Space Mountain.

It was a great break and here are some pictures to prove it.

Universal Studios

Butter beer mustache.  It was good, but not like I imagined it tasting.

So Universal doesn't know how to handle crowds and Disney does.  The beach is always a good, cheap, relaxing alternative to all the parks.  We had a great time.  We did get an offer on our house while waiting in line for Space Mountain.  We negotiated over the next few days while driving home and came to an agreement.  The bad news is that they want to move in on April 21st, so now we're scrambling to figure out what to do next.  We are just grateful for a sale.
