Catching up and a little bit Disney

I’ve been the most horrible blogger ever, taking 2 months between posts! I’m going to try to be better and start today by catching up a bit and talk a little bit about our family vacation to Disney World that we took last month.

Since I last posted, there have been a few changes in the Dockfam household, which included me leaving a job that I absolutely hated and going back to a previous employer in which I am finally comfortable, happy and content. Funny how blessings seem to come about when you least expect it! Also, we have added a new family member! Since our dear Pico passed away (one of our Parakeets) back in Jan, there’s been a void. I was smitten by a little bird in my local pet shop before we went on vacation and I swore that if she were still there when we got home, I would take her home. Well, I did and she’s such a cutie. She’s our new parrotlet, Pika. A parrotlet is a mini-parrot….having the attitude and appetite of a full size parrot but the size of a golf ball. Right now I have her quarantined in our bedroom for a month to rule out any avian illnesses and I can’t wait until I can finally introduce her to our “flock”!

Instead of posting a day by day of our trip to Disney World, I thought I would just put up some pictures. We went for 6 days to the parks and spent our last day in Tampa. We stayed at the Caribbean Beach Resort while on Disney property and enjoyed great weather, warm during the days but nice and cool in the evenings with only one day where it rained for a few hours.

Our first full day began with a breakfast at Ohana at the Disney’s Polynesian Resort
