Disney World February

We sent Morgan with a black eye, (I felt so bad) to grandma Higleys house. She had a good time a whole week with grandpa (that's what she calls grandma) and papa (grandpa) all to her self. The rest of us said good-bye to winter. We went and spent a week in Orlando, Florida at Micky Mouses House.

Magic Kingdom

Cocoa Beach. It was kind of a cold day. The coldest day we were there for, but that didn't stop the kids. They were in the water for 3 hours strait, and didn't want to leave. They were the only people to stay in the water on the beach. Most would get in for a minute, and then get out. We saw dolphins swim by. The kids collected sea shells

Kurt got some water... Ha Ha

took in the surf

and of course kurt got covered in sand... It was a good day.

Caitlin seems to always get called out of the audience when we go places. She really loves it.Epoct

Animal Kingdom

We waited four long years, until we were able to take Kurt to Disney World. He was such a wild kid we were worried that we would lose him. It was worth the wait, nothing is better then taking a child to disney world for the first time. It is true Magic. By the way Kurt has out grown the running off, and is really a good kid. I'm sure glad!!!

Something about this picture just makes me laugh. I hope when he is sixteen he is still this scared of Areal, and sits far, far, far away.

The airplane ride. Kurt was really excited!!! He loves planes.

New York Part 1

I really was not looking forward to turning 30, we can say I was really upset that the day was approaching. Then I got an idea. I've been wanting to see the Broadway play, "Wicked" for a while now, like 2 years. I really wanted to go to New York City. So what more could make a day I didn't want turn into a day I couldn't wait for, then a trip to the Big Apple. So my wonderful husband, and fabulous family made it all happen for me. Thank You Everyone!!!

We started our trip at the Empire State Building Time Square

Our Tour Bus, in Time Square.
We bought a week subway ticket, and a 3 day guided tour on a tour bus.
They were our transportation for the week.



What we went for. Wicked was everything I hoped it would be...
Very Classic Broadway... A Cute Story.

New York Part 2

The Set of "In the Heights"

I loved this play, Dare I say I loved it maybe even more then "Wicked"

It's about a boy named Usnavy, and his life

It had the best choreography, with hip hop and a little salsa,

and the music moved you... Usnavy would rap.

I don't know but, I loved itWe got tickets for the Late Show.. It was fun The show moved really fast

they did no retakes everything just keep going like on TV...

And David keeps the studio ice cold...

This is our pizza tour guide, we are in a shop were they make pizza ovens...

I thought this kid was so interesting... He had an idea one day to start giving pizza tours in

New York City. He rented a school bus, got his friends together for a birthday party of his, and they went around new york stopping at pizza's places, eating pizzza. From there he marked his idea to a few pizza shops, got on the internet, and next thing he new his rated one of the top things to do in new york... It was a good time. We ate at three different pizza shops in 3 hours.

In central park we "rented" a boy to peddle us around the park in his bike cart.
Now I know how the kids feel in my bike cart.


Of course you can't go to New York with out going to Lady Liberty

the lipstick

Now you might wonder how these things happen...

Too a beautiful blue eye girl as this, but I promise you

this is all her doing...

And it happens to be one of her favorite things to do... I don't know, but the more creative (stinker) my kids are the

funner I think they are, Does this make me a bad mom?
If she wasn't doing things like this... What would I be doing all day, Really
That would be pretty boring... I would have to tell stories about how my two year old is reading?!?
What fun would that be?
