January at IOA

Since we were took the whole family to Universal for Christmas, we renewed Rebecca's annual pass. So before she went back to Alabama, we scheduled a dinner for her at Cowfish, her favorite Universal restaurant and then went to Islands of Adventure so she and Janie could ride Hulk and Dr. Doom's Freefall. We also rode Spiderman, Cat in the Hat and the Seuss train, which we had not ridden when we were there with the family.

Mardi Gras

We were able to get a spot riding one of the Mardi Gras floats at Universal Studios so we spent an afternoon riding some rides before donning costumes and going up on a float to toss out beads to the other guests.

Toothsome

When Rebecca came home for Spring Break, we celebrated the ladies' birthdays at Toothsome Chocolate Emporium.

Thanksgiving Week

While Becca was blacked out at Disney for Thanksiving week, we went to Universal Studios for lunch at Cowfish then rides at IOA and Universal and a stop for donuts at Voodoo.
