Our Cheap Vacation

Over the break, we traveled around the world and visited Japan, Morocco, Mexico, France, England, Germany and can you believe it...even more!
JUST KIDDING! We tagged along with my sweet parents and stayed in their condo, used sky miles for our air fare, and got 3 days of free park tickets by going to a lovely time share presentation! This trip was as dirt cheap as you can get and we were so grateful! We went to Disney World, Epcot and Blizzard Beach! It was amazing!Jay and Grandpa
Epcot was my favorite. The tour around the world was so much fun and it was great to try new foods, and see some amazing buildings.
There were these incredible African hand made crafts and this piece was $55 and that is almost more than we spent on the whole trip, so I had to settle for a picture. I just love this!
There are my sweet boys. Jay loved it, but too bad he won't remember any of it!

Mandi. I think I'll be going to Africa again soon, and I WILL be buying you one of those statues (for much less than $55). Just so you know. Hope all is well.
