Downtown Disney

























The first night we arrived in Orlando, we went to Downtown Disney. We decided to take the kids to eat at the Dinosaur Cafe. There was about an hour and a half long wait so we walked around and looked in the different shops as we waited. The kid's favorite was Lego Land. They all of these awesome projects made from Legos. The Dinosaur Cafe was really cool. They had dinosaur replicas that moved and make noise. We were seated in the ice room, and that room changed colors. I had the most amazing dish there. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. I had their mushroom ravioli and it was AMAZING!!! I would go there again just to eat that one more time. It was late by the time we were done eating so we called it a night so that we could get ready for Disney World the next day!!!

July 4th




Jordan turned on the lights on the cop car



























I had to get a picture of those LEGS!
So all three of my kids are fearless and jump off the high dive all by themselves. It is probably about 10 feet tall, but they were pros by the time we left Florida!









Our fourth of July was a lot of fun. We were able to spend the day at White Springs which is a pond close to my house where we spent our summers as kids. The family had cleaned it up and it was ready for us to use while we were in Florida. We swam and played in the water and the guys set up a water slide on a hill that dumped you into the water. Everyone had a great time on that. We had some awesome food and after we went to my mom's house and Peyton put on a fireworks show for everyone and all the kids played with sparklers. Once it was dark we played a mean game of kick-the-cans until after midnight. It was so much fun, we really get into it! It was a perfect day!
