Kung Fu Something!

This is a great movie (if you are not with a two year old)! Today I had this fabulous idea to take ALL 5 kids to the movies by myself, somebody should have stopped me! I think we made it through 2 previews before they were all begging for their candy, and that was only because I threatened that if they asked me before the lights went out, then the movie workers would kick us out! I didn't tell them it was because I was too cheap to buy popcorn and drinks at the Movies like everybody else. I have become the epitome of a Mormon mom. This reminds me of a time we were visiting family in none other than Utah. There was a large family sitting in front of us, and when I say large, that means like 20 kids or something! As soon as the lights began to dim, simultaneously you heard the tops of their Shasta cans go pssssssssss! It was a sort of de ja vu for me today, except I at least bought the name brand soda. Really though, this is a cute move, one of the best animated ones I have seen in a while. My only suggestion, hire a babysitter!

Are we there yet?

Yes! We finally made it to Disneyworld. After an agonizing 3 hour plane ride we were able to set foot on hot, soggy, humid Florida soil. I honestly don't know how people can live there! And we were told that Spring is a great time to visit, I would hate to see how miserable the summers are. Regardless of the weather conditions, once we entered the gates of Disneyworld and saw the excitement and magic in the kids eyes, it made it all worth it. I have to say a "HUGE" thanks to Bob, Marcee, Brett and Allyson who unkowingling made our vacation a reality. Without their help, we never would have made it, so, Thank You! Speaking of Bob and Marcee, it was so great to spend some time with them. It has been almost two years since we last saw each other, yet somehow, Madison and Macy pick up right where they left off. They had such a fun time just playing and swimming in the pool. I wish we all lived a little closer so they could have more memories like these. Overall, our trip was a success! Through all the minor meltdowns and drama, I have to admit, given the chance we would do it again!
