Disney day 2

We chose to do animal kingdom for day 2- and I’ll say it wasn’t my favorite. (Or the kids) it’s fun- but imo- for the ages my kids are at now- it’s more of a half day park- or best if you are doing park hopper passes. I think there’s just SO much that young kids can do and love at magic kingdom It’s hard to compare. We did Hollywood studios one day and two days at magic kingdom when we went two years ago, so we wanted to give another park a try. Maybe by our next trip we will go for park hopper passses and get in Epcot too!

There were only three rides that the boys could do- i guess I should have researched that more- oops. But, they did really enjoy the lion king show and the finding Nemo show and those are 30 and 40 min Long respectively. We started the day with fastpasses for Everest (colls HATED- I can’t even with that face she made!!), the safari and the river journey ride in pandora.  (Which by the way- the river journey ride was totally boring- pretty scenery but nothing to it at all). So: safari, river journey, and then the Dino twirl (which is nothing more than a fair ride) is all the boys got to ride. We tried (and tried and tried) to get a fast pass for avatar but never had any luck- oh well, just means we will have to go back!  The only other ride we rode besides Everest was the dinosaur ride which was really scary- again, Colls didn’t like. I wish they’d add a few more young kid rides at AK. All of the kids did love the Dino land playground, so that was good- and we enjoyed a few beverages during this time ;-)  we also watched a street show that was about 20 ish minutes- and Colls got out there and danced the whole time and loved it. Before we headed out for the night we watched the tree of life light show which was really cool too and enjoyed by all. 

Our “big surprise” thing of the trip was chef mickeys Saturday night - I knew it would be a good opportunity for the kids to meet the “five” and knock it out at one time and not have to wait in lines to do it!! Of course the boys were shy at first- but they are still talking about how awesome it was. However, I’ll say- I’ll never go there again. Holy pricey(!!!) for terrible buffet food- I don’t understand why Disney can’t get better food? They do everything else SO well.  Anyways- we went long and hard for two full days and it was so much fun!!!


The face!!!

To my boys {almost two months late}

MY BOYS: A whole hand.   I can’t believe it.   The past five years have gone by at lightning speed!   You two silly, crazy, sweet, handsome boys celebrated FIVE like you do all other things- with genuine excitement and happiness in your hearts.   Y’all love life to the fullest and have the best imaginations- I could sit and listen to the two of you “play and talk” to each other ALL the live long day.   Y’all rarely fight, but when you do you make up within like 12 seconds, you boys are so different, but yet so the same.   You’ve both grown up in SO many ways and sometimes I have to blink to remind myself you are still my babies (because you are and always will be) but you both still have remnants of “babyhood” that I sure hope stays around a little longer.   It’s been a complete JOY to be your mama the past five years, as much as I want to keep you this AGE FOREVER, I know it’s not possible and am excited to watch you two grow and blossom in l...

What's in a name?

I tell ya, the name game is HARD. Really hard. I never thought that I'd be 27 years old and pregnant and not know what I wanted to name my child. I *think* we have come up with the one , but I'm not quite ready to put it out for the world to see...you know, don't want to many people rushing to get monogrammed bubbles. Ha! Jokes! Anyways...so I can look back and remember what all we went thru to come up with a name in 20 years I am going to lay it all out there. I'll start with saying I want a family name to be somewhere in my children's names. It doesn't have to be a first name, but some name in the child's name I want to be from a family member/family. We'll start with boys names, because they got taken off the table when we found out it was a GIRL..this will be short. Mikey's middle name is Thomas...his grandfather's name is Thomas. So...we always said Thomas would be in our son's name. I always thought it would be cool to do a Tho...

2019 family Village Creek trip

Our 2019 summer family vacation was everything I could have asked for, and more!  This year, my parents and nephew joined us for the week so we had extra fun!  (and extra chaos of course, too!)  We did ALL the things, but yet also did ALL the relaxing.  We arrived on G and T's actual, bday so we started our trip with a special birthday lunch in downtown Beaufort with just the boys since Collins rode down with my mom.  We also finally experienced the drive in movie that night for Toy Story 4 and it was AWESOME!  We only had one day of cloudy weather so that was awesome!  We ventured to Bohicket Marina, Harbor Town, Harbor Island, Edisto Island, Botany Bay, our favorite sandbar AND downtown Beaufort by boat, we had a ball!   My dad got some AMAZING fireworks and we had a little show for the culdesac, so much fun!!  Mikey and I even got to sneak out one n...
