Family Disney Vacation 2010


I know it has been quite some time, as many of you may know things have been a little crazy for us Hollinger's! Mommy ended up having a whole bunch of problems after having baby Paige and was in the hospital twice over the past two weeks. To add to all that we also had a family vacation planned. Luckily in the end all went well, Mommy is now feeling better and we had a wonderful time on our vacation.
Gigi treated us to a family vacation in Orlando, which meant we got to go to Disney world, it is officially my new favorite place!!! It was so nice to also get to spend some time with my cousins; Dawn, Tyler, Patsy, Kristin, Tricia, Gail, Erik, Elsa and Cameron, I miss them all already...



We stayed in a really cool place that had tons of neat things for kids to do and lots of different pools. Erik and I did lots of swimming together, I am now able to swim all by myself with the help of some water wings!!! Thanks to my cousin Tyler for hanging out in the pool with me almost everyday.


My little sister Paige, slept all day around the pool, usually she was in her stroller in the shade but every once in a while she would convince daddy to let her sleep on him!
Our resort had animals there one day and I got to meet a crocodile and a cockatoo. I even got to pet the
crocodile, yes touch it!!! 

We went to Disney World a couple of times; to the Magic Kingdom, Hollywood studios, and the Animal Kingdom. Here are a few pics from our adventures at Disney!





When we went to the Animal Kingdom we got to pet some animals, here I am petting a very big goat! We also went on a safari and saw tons of different animals; rhino's, hippos, giraffe's, elephants....I loved it!!!
Here are a few videos of us at Disney World's a Magic Kingdom!



One night we went to one of the Disney resorts called the Disney Boardwalk and got to see the fireworks display, it was really neat. I wasn't too sure about the loud noises at first but it was really pretty!.


While we were away it was Gigi's birthday so we all went out for dinner one night to celebrate, of course we don't have a picture of it, but we did have lots of fun!!! On Gigi's birthday she babysat Paige so that Daddy, Mommy and I could go to Disney Hollywood studios on our own which makes things much easier, Paige doesn't really like these things yet and she can't be in the sun....silly girl! Thanks Gigi for everything!!!

Well that is it for vacation pics, we have tons more but this blog is already getting really long and we still have a few more things to share. Right before we left we had a visitor, my Great Uncle Howard. He bought a car in California and was driving by so he stopped in for a visit. The car is super old and called a Model T or soemthing along those lines, it was really neat!

 

One last thing I thought I would share is about my end of year program from school. We had a get together with all the families and friends from my school and all the kids did a program for the adults. We practiced for weeks and I had a few songs to sing but when I got up in front of all the people I froze, I think I had stage fright, I just stood there. My teacher told Mommy afterwards that I did great in practice, oh well, better luck next year!!!

Here is my cute little sister, she got all dressed up for my end of year party at school, doesn't she look adorable! She was very well behaved and didn't cry at all during the program, thanks Paige!!!


Well we are all still recouping from our vacation and I think it might be time to have dinner. I promise not to wait so long till I post another blog.

Love y'all,
Emmie and Paige
