Last weekend, we met up with our friends, Amanda and Brittany, at Downtown Disney. We've known them for 14 years and they are twins too! Whenever we see them, people always get confused because they aren't used to seeing two sets of twins. We stopped at Raglan Road for some appetizers. Carter loved the sausages; she had the most. We walked around Downtown Disney for a little bit; it's always fun with Amanda and Brittany. We went to Splitsville which is a really nice bowling alley near the House of Blues. We ate first; we split a fiesta chicken rice bowl that Cassidy loved but Carter didn't. Bowling was fun but surprisingly we all weren't that great(we blame it on the narrow lanes) but we still had fun. They live an hour and half away so we were a little sad leaving but it's always nice to see them. Amanda has her own blog and we think it's awesome so check it out here

We decided to go to the Winter Park to see the Morse Museum of American Art and stop by Le Macaron. The Morse Museum houses one of the largest collections of Tiffany&Co. stained glass. The stained glass was amazing. It also had American paintings and some pieces from the Art Nouveau period. We loved it all! We are taking Art History as one of our classes and it really helped us appreciate the art more. After the museum, we stopped by Le Macaron, a French pastry shop. The owner is actually from France, so it had to be tres magnifique! We only ate one of the macarons and saved the rest for later but they are delicious!
