8 Years….Wow!

 

Hard to believe it has been 8 yrs since we got married. Time has gone extremely slow at times, and flown by at others. It has been a long road with a lot of ups and downs. However, we have made it and are still here….together. We have 3 wonderful, beautiful, smart kids to show for it. Our family really hasn’t changed much over the years. We still enjoy our times together, and love to spend as much time together as we can.

Since there are many things coming up this month, we were not able to do much in the way of our Anniversary. On Sunday we were able to get out and enjoy the day without kids. That was a nice break, and fun. We went to Downtown Disney (is that sad when you have no kids with you?) and saw a movie. We caught FAME….and it was really good.

After walking around and exploring the stores we normally don’t go into cause little hands will touch stuff, we headed over to the Rain Forest Cafe (which is turning out to be a tradition since we moved here) for lunch.

Then we went to Ghirardelli's for a nice ice cream sundae.

It may have not been a fancy expensive day, but it was our day and that is all that matters!

Incase your wondering the kids had a great day too. They spent it with Nana & Papa at Disney’s Magic Kingdom. Can’t get any better than that right? We got home before them, and enjoyed a quiet evening… they came in about 8pm just in time for bed. They had school Monday morning (not a holiday for our schools) so they went right off to bed! It was truly a prefect day for all!!

Here is a taste of what kids will do if left near water!

What better way to spend a hot afternoon??

And what your face looks like if the water goes missing!

Valentine’s Day

 

With three beautiful children ,you absolutely have to celebrate Valentine’s Day!  We decided to take the kids out, and do something fun. We did our fun lead us? Downtown Disney of course!!

For dinner we went T-Rex  the new dinosaur restaurant . It was so much fun, and amazing. The kids absolutely loved it. Our waiter was amazing, and so interactive with the kids. Rachel was in stitches laughing at him. At the end of our meal, they brought out a dish of ice cream, with a cookie….. and sang  “Happy Birthday” to Sage. Her facial expression was just priceless. I wish , I could have captured it.

From there we headed over to the Lego place. Our kids always have to stop and build with the Lego’s. We ended up buying a small et of Lego’s for each of the kids. That made their night.!

After looking around a couple shops, we decided to stop and see a dance competition going on. The kids got up and danced along, it was so cute! I wish, I could have caught it on video, but my car didn’t have enough lighting.

Our last stop of the evening was to Ghirardelli's for some ice cream! Oh so scrumptious! It was a nice end to the evening.! Hope you had a great Valentine’s Day!
