Adrenaline ran through my veins all day, and Disney references spilling out of my mouth like a broken record in a player. No one else accepted my elation, but I on the other hand, had a countdown down for this jaunt as soon as I heard of it in August.

I have never been in a car crash before until...... It was spring break of 2007 and I was 4 years old. As a four year old I always loved to travel to see my family and when they come to visit me and my family in Oregon I'm just as happy. I was and still am not a homebody.
