Our Walt Disney 2010 Summer Vacation!!

This year for our family vacation we went to Disney. We stayed right next to Magic Kingdom. It was a military resort so the deal was AWESOME!! They have a Breakfast and dinner buffet every day. The bus came every 30 mins. and would take you to all the different places on Disney property.The first day we went to the Air and Space museum and the first night was build your own cookie night, the girls had fun doing that. The next day we went to Magic Kingdom, it was sooo hot but we discovered fast past and had a great time seeing and riding all the rides. The second day we went to Blizzard beach, it was my favorite. They have slides for all ages, I didn't get pictures because I was so busy having fun that I forgot. We could have stayed longer. The third day we went to Animal Kingdom. We went on the Safari where you see wild animals up close. It was definitely a jungle experience. B- also went on the rollercoaster ride with her dad, it scared her so much she said she never wants to go again! Then on our fourth day we went back to Magic Kingdom so we could see the parade and fireworks. Our last day we swam and feed the fish and hung out at the resort. It was such a great vacation!!

Our Summer Fun, VA-Beach,Swimming Lessons, and Cheer Camp

Another thing we did this summer is go to Cape Henry Inn at Va-Beach. My sister and her family were able to come with us this year. The kids had such a great time, even if it rained a little here and there. Of course we couldn't leave without going up the lighthouse. L- we for the first time. It was a little scary but she did it. We also did a lots of swimming at the pool

and the kids couldn't get enough of the ocean even if it was cold!

The girls also had swimming lessons this summer just like they do every summer. They have both improved alot. B- is in level 5 now, she swims very well. She is working on diving off the diving board! L- is in level 2 again she is catching on but is still too nervous to try the deep end.

This was the first time the girls did cheer camp and of course they loved it. They learned lots of cool cheers they are still yelling around the house. They separate them according to age so L- was in the younger group and B- in the older. They had friends doing it with them so that added to the fun as well. I also really like their shirts this year.

Ballet Recitals

The girls had their Ballet Recital on May 15th this year. They both did a beautiful job! B- has come a long way and really enjoys it! She gets better and better each year. L- is so cute to watch, she is still learning the moves and tries real hard. They both performed at the 1p which was really nice that way we only had to go once.

L- Spelling words.

L- is finishing her Kindergarten year and she is starting to write in sentences. She has been sounding out her words all by herself, and surprisingly enough you can read them pretty well. Here are some I thought were cute,and pretty darn good for a 5 yr old.

Mother's Day

B- helping her dad cook dinner, and having fun while doing it.

L- sleeping with w/gift hiding under her books.

So I haven't been too great about keeping up on my blog and I'm not great about taking pictures either sometimes, but I really enjoy it when I get the chance. But Mother's Day this year was one of my best so far. I love being a mom it has blessed my life so much. And I have a great husband, because he was behind all of the wonderful gifts I received for Mother's Day.

I got breakfast in bed, 2 dozon roses, plants and homeade cards from my kids, a work free day,and lots of attention. The best part was just hanging out together and seeing how excited they were to give me there little gifts.

L- My 5 yr old came home on the Friday before mother's day and pulled a bag out of her backpack and ran up stairs. She said I couldn't come in her room until Mother's Day, I said "Well how am I going to read you a story?" A few minutes later she came out and said "OK mom you can go in but don't look on the side of my bed!

Later I went in to find a mountain of books on the floor next to her bed, she had made a house of books around the gift she didn't want me to see(picture above). She was so excited and wanted to make sure I didn't see it until Mother's Day!

I loved the look on her face when she brought it to me that morning. How could I not act soo excited to open it! It was a beautiful flower plant she grow at school, we planted it in the front flower bed.
