Traveling Together - Red-Eye

It's finally here! Our long-awaited trip to Orlando for Baby Doll's volleyball Nationals tournament. We decided to make it a bit easier on Bossy since Gamer had to stay home because of work by taking the the red-eye so her little ones would sleep. There are 7 in her group, 6 in mine, and 7 in the group with Teach and Drama Queen. It's almost like a family reunion with 8 of my 12 kids here. We came in early Saturday morning, but Teach's group is driving and they will be in later today.

Our flight left just before midnight. Thankfully, the airport was pretty quiet at that hour.

We got into Orlando around 6am. Everyone was tired and grumpy, and we still had to get luggage and our rental cars before we could drive the 40 or so minutes to our Hilton suites at Aqua Sol.

Some of us slept the day away. I got about 3 hours before Bossy and I went to the 'required for owners' Hilton presentation. After a couple of hours, I dropped her and Bright Eyes at the complex and then I went grocery shopping at Aldi's.

I can’t really afford restaurants all week and our suites have full kitchens. We ate spaghetti and meatballs for dinner and played games.

The rain shut down the pools and waterslide, so we watched the lightening from our 3rd story deck. 


Afterwards, we all watched Sheep Detectives except for Sport. He hasn't been feeling well.

Tournament starts early tomorrow. Let's GO!!!
