Linda's parents have a place in Florida; moreover, Linda really likes it if at least once each winter she can get away for a week or so to somewhere relatively warmer than West Michigan. This year, Linda's parents had enough frequent flier miles to fly both Linda and Rachael down to Florida for a visit to Disney World. Chris was able to join them as well.

Heading from the Tampa airport over to Orlando, Rachael was zonked out in the back seat after a day of flying from Grand Rapids via Minneapolis to Tampa. ©2009 Christopher J. Bessert. All Rights Reserved. Do not use or reproduce without prior permission.

After arriving at the Disney All-Star Resorts and checking in, Rachael enjoyed a nice apple juice prior to heading to bed for the evening. She was very excited about her day the next day at the Magic Kingdom and it was a chore to get her to want to go to bed. ©2009 Christopher J. Bessert. All Rights Reserved.

The second morning, Rachael was apparently pretty tired from the previous day of travelling from Michigan to Florida. She wouldn't be asleep for much longer, though. ©2009 Christopher J. Bessert. All Rights Reserved. Do not use or reproduce without prior permission.

Rachael, now awake and dressed in one of her "pretty dresses," is ready to head over to the Magic Kingdom and is wearing a "1st Visit" button that Grandma J. bought for her the night before. ©2009 Christopher J. Bessert. All Rights Reserved. Do not use or reproduce without prior permission.

Prior to boarding the buses that take Disney All-Star Resort patrons over to the Magic Kingdom (or other Disney World areas), Rachael posed for photos with some of the "larger-than-life" characters from "Toy Story" in the motel courtyard.

Just inside the Magic Kingdom, Rachael meets her first Disney character, Snow White, and gets an autograph in her book. ©2009 Christopher J. Bessert. All Rights Reserved. Do not use or reproduce without prior permission.

This is a little website set up by Chris & Linda, Rachael's proud new parents, in response to repeated requests for photographs and the latest information on how Rachael is doing. As many of you know, Chris & Linda welcomed their daughter into the world six weeks early in late June, so the birth and first few weeks of Rachael's life have been a bit less than "usual."
