My Fantastic Vacation with Dawson & Taya

Life throws you changes and you either crumble or pull yourself up and move forward. My usual traveling partner could not go this time (tears)and the news came very last minute so my vacation plans were in a whirl.....but..... I was able to take my little Grandson, Dawson, and my very good friend Taya came as well so off we went on this adventure. I was so proud of myself as I was a pro at navigating my way around Orlando and to and from the port for the cruise.

The cruise was picture perfect and the time before and after were so fun. I sat on Disney's private island in a beach chair that sat in the turquoise water and thought that I had never been as relaxed as that very moment ever.

Dawson is seven and was the best boy ever. We laughed and had so much fun and after all the prior week's transitions, it was fun to laugh and have fun with him. I know his mommy missed him and he missed her but I think he felt safe, secure, and loved so that was good. Here is the link to a sampling of the many pictures I took. I hope you enjoy them.

From the Eye of My Seven Year Old Grandson - Vacation with Ga Ga & company!

My little Dawson took his first vacation pictures with a digital camera. He did an amazing job capturing all of the images he thought were important or eye-catching. He was so responsible with the camera and diligent about turning it off and keeping track of it. he as incharge and felt all of that responsibility.

I wanted to show you some of his pictures he took. He was a complete angel and I loved every minute with him. It was a very special time!
