Gracie's race day!

Saturday February 22nd!
This morning our quest was to get to Gracie's race! Her race also was at Epcot! We ate breakfast at the timeshare then headed out! We got there just in time to send daddy and Gracie running to the corral! They were in the 4th and final wave of the 100meter dash! I think it was for 2-3 year olds, marked by a green feather! Gracie was excited and a little intimidated since this was her first race! She was very brave and ran strong! 
Goofy was there to cheer everybody on! 
We are so proud of her!!

Next we went to the runners expo to see about some runDisney shoes! I was able to sneak some kids shoes on Thursday but adult shoes were hard to come by and there was some convoluted process to getting them. We thought we would try our luck at just showing up and it paid off! We were able to get all of us that wanted shoes shoes! 
So that was really exciting! Robb has a theory about running in brand new shoes and I've always been squeamish to the idea but I thought I'd try it! Seems like you end up with hurting feet either way! I do have to say it was pretty great! They had full support and cushion! Mom found our names of the billboard of people running! And we headed back! 

Today was also moving day! Time to head to our "new hotel"! The checked out of the Wyndham Bonnet Creek resort over to mom and dad's timeshare at The Sheraton Vistana! It was fun to check out a new place! We loved the elevators and all the different pools and amenities. It was very nice! But once we drove into the Vistana we felt like we were home! Even Robb said so! There was a certain comfort and familiarity when we drove in. 
We unpacked and settled in! Such great weather and fun we are having! Feeling so blessed since MN is so cold and snowy! Such a nice escape from bundling up! Stay warm friends!

One excerpt from the day: robb and Max were talking at the dinner table about the girls and Max said something about me being the "crabby" girl, Gracie is the one that's loud and Gia is a giggly. Robb tried to slow Maxs roll and said "you know what's happens when you mess with the bull, Max" and without hesitation Zmax says " you get a headache!" I love that kid!!
