Jordyn's 1st Boo Boo!

We were playing out front tonight and Jordyn decided to go around about the street. Well, she took a little nose dive on the concrete. It did not look like she really hit that hard, but when I picked her up she had blood coming from her lip and then the rest of her face started showing the scratches. She really did not cry too long and just kept on playing after letting me put a cold washcloth on it for a while. I hope that it is not too swollen in the morning. I gave her some motrin and put medicine on it, so we shall see tomorrow. I know she will have many more boo boos, but it is still sad to see her first one.

Disney Day 1-Animal Kingdom!

Well, this was such a great first day at Disney World. We went to the Animal Kingdom the first day and had some of our friends that live there come with us. We started the day at the Tusker House eating breakfast with Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Daisy, and Donald Duck. We were very surprised because we thought that it was just going to be Donald and Goofy. They did some dancing around the restaurant and did not eat too much food because they were so excited to see their favorite characters. After breakfast, we went straight to meet some of the other characters that they had there and watched the Lion King show. The girls really enjoyed the show and getting the characters to sign their autograph books. Afterwards, the Linard family was there to spend the day with us. We had lunch at Yak and Yeti which was some great Asian food. We walked around the park and got to ride a few things and watch the shows. Jordyn took a nap, but Hayven refused and within a few hours was very fussy. She fell asleep right before dinner and slept for a while. She woke up to us going into the Bug's Life show and did not like the things shooting things out into the audience. It was a 3D show and she did not like seeing things that close. It was a good day and the characters were at the front of the park singing some songs at the end of the day and the girls enjoyed dancing to some of the music there. A fun day and be looking for more days at Disney to follow!

Jordyn was not ready to wake up yet!

I got to be in alot of character shots and had to overcome my own fear of costume characters in order to get pictures with Jordyn because she is afraid of them too.

Daddy wanted a pictures with Daisy too.

Hayven loves to pick up Jordyn now and Jordyn turns around for her to do again and again.

Look how close we were to this giraffe just driving by on one of the rides, so cool!

Hayven riding with Caitlyn!

Watching the parade!

This was one of my 1st students, Chris, holding Hayven on his shoulders.

The first video is the girls dancing and playing their instruments at breakfast with Mickey and the second is Jordyn dancing at the end of the day. Hayven was still waking up and so she was not in the mood for dancing.

Disney Trip!

OK, well I had planned on putting our Disney trip on here while we were at Disney World, but we did not have internet. So, I am going to put one day at a time up on here, so that you all can see how the trip went. There are way too many things to just tell in one entry and so I figured that this would be the easiest. Our flight there went very well. We actually ran early that morning because we were all so excited about getting to Orlando, Florida. We got the airport about 2 hours early and then the airplane had something wrong with it and it was delayed 2 hours. So, 4 hours at the airport was not fun at all! Luckily there were a couple of little girls sitting next to us that the girls had fun playing with at the airport while we were waiting. The girls slept on the plane and then enjoyed watching Lilo and Stitch. The flight got a little bumpy and they made us put all electronics away, but luckily I had some stickers for them to play with and so that bought us a little more time. We got there and then had to get on a bus for 30 minutes to the hotel and the girls were very tired of sitting. We did not end up getting to the hotel until almost 8 and still had to eat dinner (we were supposed to get to the hotel at 4). So, we did not get to do anything that night except for eat a quick dinner and then off to unpack and go to sleep. The girls were upset because we were supposed to go swimming, but were excited about going to eat breakfast with Donald Duck the next morning.

I was glad that Jordyn went to sleep, but it was hard to hold her the whole time on our full flight!

Isn't she sweet!

Here they are watching their Lilo and Stitch!

Here we are getting on the Mickey Express bus!

Here we come Disney World!!!

OK, so tomorrow is the day and we will be leaving for Disney World in Orlando, Florida. It will be our first flight and our first family vacation with just the four of us. We are soooo excited and we will be posting many pictures throughout the week on here, so make sure to check back often.

Not Swimming in Oma's pool!

So, we went to my mom's house last weekend and the girls were supposed to be going to see if the water was warm yet. Well, that turned into them getting into the water and splashing around until they were soaking wet. The water was not all that warm, but they had a great time and now they are wondering when we can go back and swim again. So, here are just a few pics of their good time splashing around in Oma's pool!

Hayven getting her hair wet and everything else too!

Jordyn loving being in the water!

All of them splashing around and Oma trying to keep them from going all the way in.

OK, now it is time to get out!

Jordyn loves to try and steal my drink and say "give me some" over and over again!

Hayven looking silly in Oma's glasses!

The girls loving on their Oma!!!
