Go West!

We just got back from Orlando where Carson spent the last few days of his trackout exploring Disney, Universal and Volcano Bay! While at the Cabana Bay hotel, Carson got a kick out of seeing a family of ducks in the lazy river (lol) and playing ping-pong in the sand nearby. We had a chance to meetup with cousins Deb,Ryan,Alex,Austin for dinner at the Rainforest cafe, where the kiddos giggled and got along really well. Harry Potter land at Universal was one of Carson's favorite areas (and he was Harry for Halloween too), and he repeatedly found places where his wand would animate an object. He also told everyone that 'dad's least favorite ride was the Simpsons because it gave him a headache'. But we managed to ride ~9 different attractions, in what turned out to be a full and fun day. The Magic Kingdom was crowded, but still memorable, and finally C enjoyed the water and sunshine at Volcano Bay, equipped with his 'tapu-tapu' wristpass. Throughout the trip, he was patient in line, studying the park maps and making me laugh. Prior to the trip, we attended a Canes game (thanks Grandpa) where he caught a puck! This fall was also marked by the birth of new cousin !West! and judging by his size, he will be a power forward in the NHL. Carson is excited to see Lil and West at the holidays, and has planned to take Lilia skating at our new neighborhood outside rink. Meanwhile, it's back to school now along with his ongoing roller hockey season. Hoping you will score another one top shelf tonight buddy!
