What's up, fans.
A little while ago, my step-sister, Jill, and her husband Brian, decided that it'd be cool to surprise their two boys (my nephews, Blake and Bradley), with a family vacation to Florida. Once again, a fun-filled romp through the
Disney parks, a stint at the beach, you name it. And, once again, my parents were coming down as well.
Go go Gadget,
Hough Family Vacation '12.

| I want one of these for my pool. . . |
Most of the time that the folks and the Whites were in town on their vacation, Kris and I had the privilege - nay, the
pleasure! - of
working. Huzzah. We hung out with them at their hotel when time permitted (they ended up staying at that Lake Buena Vista condo with the pirate ship pool again), but most of our family get-togetherishness would have to wait until the weekend when everyone was around. So, while Kris and I continued to deal with other folks'
delinquent awesome children,
they got to do the tourist thing.
Man, I can't wait 'til Summer Vacation. . .
On Saturday, armed with sunscreen and swimsuits, the Houghs sallied forth for a day of sunburns and (most likely) urine consumption at
Disney's Typhoon Lagoon.
