Vacation 2012 at Disney World

 This is Kate Weldon, my new friend and sister in Christ!  We made great friends with her and her brother's family at Saratoga Springs Resort where we were all staying.  They were on a 3 week vacation to WDW from Bristol, UK!  Bill even got her husband Terry on to play golf with him one day!  Terry loves golf and plays regularly in the UK so they had a fun time!
 This is Kate and Terry Weldon, back left, and their 3 darling girls, Hanna, Nave, and Rebecca and David and Liz Elder (Kate's brother and sister in law) and their precious son David James!  We loved getting to know them and loved listening to their british accents!  The children were all impressively well mannered and very well spoken.  They were all a blessing to get to know!  We are now Facebook friends!
 We loved running into the amazing Doverspike family, from our church, while we were there!  This was their first visit to WDW and it was so fun to see and hear all about their magical adventures!
 We so enjoyed Disney Hollywood Studios and even tried a restaurant, The Brown Derby, here that we had never eaten at before!  It was wonderful!
 We savored every minute at Animal Kingdom and on the Kilimanjaro Safari we even got a rare viewing of the new 3 month old Rhino baby and mother!
 Our favorite park is Epcot, hands down!  We got to ride Soarin, my personal favorite ride ever, 3 times!  We ate at one of our favorite places, The Coral Reef!
We had a marvelous time at Magic Kingdom and visited this park more than once this trip.  We get a park hopper season pass, of course, so we can park hop anytime.  We can't wait to come back here in February to run in the Disney Princess Half Marathon to celebrate my upcoming retirement from the school district!

This pretty little key (pin) was given to us Friday but we actually purchased it as part of our "Keys to the Kingdom Tour" price. We had to pay to get this little gold key and our time in this WDW Kingdom is temporary. What a wonderful thing it is to know that Jesus paid the price for our entry into His eternal kingdom and His kingdom is forever!
I Cor. 9:25 "All athletes are disciplined in their training. They do it to win a prize that will fade away, but we do it for an eternal prize."
Matthew 16:19 When Peter acknowledged Jesus as the Messiah, the Son of the living God, Jesus says to Peter, " I will GIVE you the KEYS of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven."
