The Magic Kindgom

Day 3 of Disney parks.

This is the park I was most excited for!

 

 

 We met Snow White straight away.

The boys were shy and nervous.

She told them they would make

excellent helpers for her dwarf

friends working in the mines.

 

 

 Rylee and I were trying to make

a penny when this guy came straight

over to talk to us.  He's from

The Country Bears.  He made me

pinky promise that we would go

and see his show.  Rylee was so

embarrassed and did not want to

talk to him.  It was pretty funny.

The show was an animatronic

musical.  The boys were like - really mom!?!

 

The Pirates of the Caribbean ride is

one of our favorites.

 

 

 Rylee got lucky and finally
found the turkey leg he's been
waiting for all of vacation.

 

Big Thunder Mountain

I wasn't sure if the boys would

be into trading pins this time.

We made it a little bet to see

who could find the most interesting

pin.  They really got into it.

 

 

The It's a Small World ride is my

favorite ride at the Magic Kingdom.

and I got to have my picture taken

in front of Rapunzel's tower.

 

There was a family of ducks that

were just walking right through

the center of the park.

 

 Space Mountain

 

 

 Cody was a little excited
to spin around on the Tea Cups.

 and more rain!

 

 

It ended with a beautiful

rainbow over the park.

 

I got to enjoy the firework show with
Ry while the others were roller coaster riding.
It was the best firework show I have
ever seen.

 

Tomorrow we start the long journey

home.  It was a great vacation.

Rylee even said it has been his

most favorite vacation we've ever

done.  That always makes you feel really good.

Our Week Before Vacation

Summer tradition of watching

the NBA finals with Booter.

It's one of my favorite things.

 



We set the tv up on the back

porch and enjoyed the beautiful

summer evening.

 

This girl woke me up this morning.

She was in a very playful mood

which is not like her at all!

Cody was very excited to make

shirts for vacation.

Rylee was not!

I finally finished my 3 years

in the making directions sign.

I love it so much.

Cody had coffee waiting on me this

morning and I woke up to the

sound of the mower.  He wanted to

get all of our chores done so we can

get on the road and enjoy our vacation.

Copper hurt his leg and Rylee has

been feeling really sorry for him.

He even gave up his bed last night

and slept on the floor so Copper

could be comfy.

First Week of Summer

Might as well start the summer

of with clean rooms!

 

and baths for the pups

Looks like Marley learned from

little miss Heidi on how to get

the squirrels.

KC took me to get a pedi.

He got a massage and played his

racing game the whole time so I think

he was fine with it.

 

Look how handsome this boy is!

and how sweet these sleepy

girls are!

Cody had basketball camp all week

at Randall.  He loved it so much!

His team even won the 5 on 5 bracket

that they played.

Memorial Day Weekend

We headed to Lake Makenzie

for our yearly Memorial Day riding trip.

 

 

Only got stuck one time this trip.

 

There hasn't been much rain

so the trails were extra dusty.

 

 

 

 

 

Our little girl loves new toys!

 

Turtles going for a swim.

Marley keeps a close eye on them.

Time to clean it up!

Last Day of School

Finally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the last day of school!

 

I have never been more ready for

summer!  This year was the worst

most stressful year we have ever had.

 

And good riddance to all the things that

have contributed to that!

 

This was the first day of

this school year...

 

 

and here they are on the last day.

 

 

 

 

 

I got them little sand castle buckets

filled with things for our vacation

to celebrate their last day.

 

We also went for pizza and headed

to the drive in to celebrate that evening.
