Orlando Part 3

Another slideshow design by Smilebox We went to Orlando so Kevin could attend Microsoft's Tech-Ed conference.  Being associated with Microsoft has perks and we took full advantage.  Early in the week, Microsoft hosted a party for MVP's at Dave and Buster's.  We planned to take the kids, get a regular table and then the kids could play while Kevin mingled with the other nerds.  We arrived to find a 90 minute wait for a table (imagine that).  The organizer of the MVP event invited all 7 of us into the private reception.  We had all the free food and drinks we could swallow.  That's a lot in case you were wondering.  Then they gave all the kids pre-loaded game cards.  Basically each kid got the amount we would normally make them split between the five of them.  No kids in all of Orlando were happier than the furious five that night.  We left that joint overflowing with cheap prizes from the gazillion tickets the girls won plus enough T-shirts to outfit a small army...or our extended family. On the last day of the trip, Microsoft bought out Universal Studios for the evening.  Kevin managed to gather up enough free passes to take him and all the girls.  (Ava and I stayed at the room.  We were theme parked out.)  All the food, drinks and fun were FREE.  They got to eat a meal at the Three Broomsticks in Harry Potter land and consumed copious amounts of free butterbeer. Thanks again Microsoft!  We really appreciate all the free stuff :)
