Animal Kingdom - Day 4

Monday afternoon was a wash out with a drenching downpour - so Tuesday - we were ready for some action.

Animal Kingdom was awesome. Very shaded and so much to do and see.....the best roller coaster EVERRRRRRRRRRR !!

 
We saw a Vegas style production of The Lion King.....(sorry - they came out sideways)

 
We did a jeep ride thru dinosaurs....
An adventure land visit with Mickey and Minnie and Pocahontas


 
Couldn't leave without seeing a production of Nemo...

 
And the Tree of Life
 


Magic Kingdom - Day 3

Day 3

Tinkerbell paid us an overnight visit and brought us all kinds of goodies to get us started:

 
The "plotting and planning" begins:


All dressed and READY, SET, GO..........

We hit the road running, walking, riding the bus, waiting and waiting and waiting....




 



 
 
 
 

FROZEN is THE movie of the year and my 2 grand angels daughters love the princesses - Elsa and Anna. They are a hot item at the Magic Kingdom and wait times are loooooooooooooong ! So our mission on our first day was to head straight to the enchanted castle and get in line! SCORE !! We waited less than 30 minutes and the look on the faces of those girls (and the rest of the family) was priceless.......

Disney Day 2

Sunday Funday - While Wheatie and I sat thru a very long and (expensive) presentation for our timeshare....the rest of the family joined in on the resorts party and games around the pool.....I think they had a much better time !!

Amazing Week

Day 1

A first pic at the airport 

W O W - what an amazing week at Orlando, Florida / Disney World / New Smyra Beach, Sugar Mill Griddle and Grill and all the other wonderful places we went and things we did. I LOVED, LOVED, LOVED being with my kids and grandangels. It was so sad to leave them and it just never seems to get easier.....they are truly a blessing to me and Wheatie and I love them all to the moon and back.

Saturday - we FINALLY all arrived at the airport, delays for some of us, others long waits....car rental done and off to the condo. Saturday was just tried to regroup, get a little grocery shopping in and get ready for a GRAND week.

Wheatie surprised me with a PRE 60th birthday party. Our friends Chris and Andre just happened to be in town on their way thru and stopped by to visit and celebrate...

 
A little R & R before the REAL fun started........


See you tomorrow for day 2



The Happiest Place in the World...

Disney World Bound and I. CAN. NOT. WAIT.  ! I get to spend 7 days and night with the most important people in my live.  Wheatie, Corey, Robbie, Jaxson, Annabelle, Chad, Jaycee, Cody and my newest grandangel - Mark (Corey and Robyn's Russian child visiting for 6 weeks)

Can life get any better......

Stay tuned for AMAZING pics and lots of bragging about the awesome time I am having.......

A prayer for you


  "To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did."  When God takes something from your grasp, He's not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better. Concentrate on this sentence.

 

"The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you."

 

Something good will happen to you today, something that you have been waiting to hear.

 

Just 27 Words,

'God our Father, walk through my house and take away all my worries and illnesses and please watch over and heal my family in your name,

Amen.'

 

This prayer is so powerful. A blessing is coming to you in form of a new job, a house, marriage or financially.

This is a test. Does God come first in your life?

 

3 day weekend

Haven't had a 3 day weekend, with just Wheatie in a while. This was AAAAAAAAAAAAMAZING!
Friday we worked out little bones off, mowing, flagpole repair, weed eating, laundry..blah blah blah.
Wheatie won VIP tickets to the Fort Worth Fourth and so we ventured down to check it out. OMGOSH..the people...over 75,000 - not our kind of "fun". The VIP tent was ok and worth the "free" ticket....






Bright and early Saturday morning we went to the monthly SOCIAL 5K RUN sponsored by Rahr Brewery. The run is working up to a the big Oktoberfest Run in October...after the run you get 3 beer tasting, food and a brewery tour. Didn't finish first (LOL) but didn't finish last either.....damn near passed out from the heat ........I would do it again


 

 
Sunday, we mended a 100 feet of fence
(Thanks Hagen for finding that one HOLE you could squeeze thru)
and tried to recover from the previous 2 days !!
