I usually return from my trips with a presentation of awards for the strange/fun/silly moments we experience as a family. So here goes...
Most Excited Yet Patient Airplane Waiter goes to Munchkin!
Boy, this kid just couldn't WAIT to get to Disney. He waited and watched our plane forever before boarding. He was so patient!
Worst Day of Vacation Award goes to Wednesday! This is the day that was low 60's and rainy and one child developed croup and another was barfing in the elevator in a grocery bag. Good times... (Lucky for you, I have no photos demonstrating this).
Most Confusing Moment of Scolding goes to American Idol Experience!
We got a little excited when we heard Ryan Seacrest announcing the beginning of the American Idol show and we couldn't figure out how to enter the labyrinth of chains in the front, so the Big Guy began to lift his foot to step over the chain and this happened:
If only I'd been quicker on the draw with the camera!
A security guard resembling Emmanuel Lewis came from no where and scolded Big Guy then opened the chain with a shake of his head. I'm not sure my hubs ever quite figured out what happened or who was talking to him from down there!
Most Transformative Souvenir Shop Item - Rocker Wig!
I can't explain the actual transformation that takes place once this wig is on your head, so I'll let the pictures speak for themselves:
Most Common Activity Men Engage in While Standing in Line - BlackBerry!
The BlackBerry is to men, what the Nintendo DS is to children. It keeps them occupied so they don't whine and complain while waiting for something. I actually had to start sending text messages to have myself heard after awhile. I also threw in some smarty-pants messages about dorks who always check their BlackBerry's...
Best Boy Pool Thrower - Big Guy!
That guy can throw a boy in a pool like nobody's business! Woot!
And finally, the winner of Favorite Family Portrait is:
Splash Mountain!
