Stories from an ordinary couple following an extraordinary God: Discovering Orlando Again

Well, Josh's parents came to town this last week and I just dropped them off at the airport this morning. We had a great time and since his mom hadn't been here in a LONG time and I don't think his dad had ever been here, it was fun to rediscover Orlando again. We actually didn't hit any of the BIG touristy places while they were here. No Disney, Universal, SeaWorld, or Busch Gardens. However, we did get to spend lots of time together and while we were at work, they visited with old friends and visited the Orlando Science Center, which was cool because that's where Josh and I had our first official date!

Then, Saturday we all went to Ripley's Believe it or not and spent several hours there before heading to the Florida mall for a quick trip. It was too crowded so we left and headed over to Old Town for the Saturday night tour of the classic cars. That was fun to get to share that with them. Josh LOVES old cars, so we had been before with John and Carolyn and thought that his parents would enjoy reliving some of their childhood memories. Our last stop was A&W Root Beer for some root brewskies then off to the house.

Sunday we visited Calvary Assembly for the first time to make some more friends our own age. Then, we went to Mellow Mushroom so his parents could discover the amazingness of the pizza there!

That was our weekend in a nutshell. Here are a couple of pictures from Believe it or Not:
