We originally planned to leave Maverick with Grandlady and take Brianna with us to Disney, but Brianna opted to stay with Grandlady instead, so we took Maverick with us to Disney...YES, that's right, Maverick went to Disney! He rode the courtesy tram and everything! Here he is with David at the World Ticket and Transportation Center at the Magic Kingdom...
The good news is that we did not have to buy a ticket for Maverick...He got to spend the day at the Disney Kennel Club...and was taken very good care of by this sweet lady...
David and I toured the Magic Kingdom, doing some of our favorite things...like visiting the spot where we got engaged...
Then it was off to the Experimental Prototype Community Of Tomorrow...YES, My David actually knows what EPCOT stands for...and I guess I do now too! lol Since David's annual pass was expiring just days after this visit, and we will not be renewing it any time soon (MUCH to our sorrow), I made sure to get a picture of him in front of the "golf ball".
David's daddy (Charles) actually played a part in the golf ball's construction. Apparently the original design was creating a tulip shape instead of a ball, so Charles was asked to help out...and as you can see, he knew just how to fix the problem! Knowing that David's dad had a hand in that structure makes it my favorite part of going to Disney...
We didn't spend a lot of time at EPCOT, and really didn't do much more than go on the "golf ball ride"...but we did go get a coke at the Electric Umbrella where we sat and talked for a good long while...remembering our different visits to Disney before we were a couple...and marveling at how God brought us together...and how very grateful we are that He did...
Then it was off to get our puppy and head home!
Maverick was NOT happy with us when we picked him up...he shunned us for a good, long while! BUT, as planned, we stopped at my favorite restaurant for dinner on the way home (DB Pickles in Ormond Beach) which had outside seating allowing us to keep Maverick with us at our table and once they made a big deal over him, and he had some water and a snack, he forgave us. It was a beautiful evening, and sitting outside at twilight with a sweet breeze blowing by was just wonderful! We got some cookies to take home to Brianna, and we were on our way!Father's Day itself was nice, and David received his first Father's Day card and gifts...Brianna and I think he can probably get used to this being an appreciated dad thing...
My David,
I hope you enjoyed your very first Father's Day...Brianna and I are both so glad that she has such a wonderful Daddy after all this time...You are such a blessing to us both!
I love you!
Your Colleen
