Week In Review

This week we packed lots of fun into our summer. Here's a few of the things we did:

Hamp got a day out with Granddaddy 

We played outside in the sprinkler

We watched Cars 2 way too many times

We played on the town rugs for hours

We enjoyed a special treat...the boys' first Sonic slushie!

The Fountains

At the end of our road, there's a shopping center with a great play fountain area. It's rarely crowded, but it's a fun place to come and play. We headed down there last week to take the boys to play, and they had a blast. It was Harrison's first time to get to play in the water, and once he figured it out he really enjoyed himself. Hampton had a wonderful time, of course! Since now he mentions it every time we pass the plaza, we're sure to be back several more times over the summer!

Happy Belated Memorial Day!

We hope everyone had a wonderful holiday weekend filled with good food, good company, and good memories. And many, many thanks to all our servicemen and women, past and present, who make the freedom of celebrating possible!

One More Pic....

For those of you that didn't see this on Facebook, this is how we celebrated Bo's birthday in Orlando. With his birthday being Cinco de Mayo, we make it a point to eat the yummy Mexican in full celebration. This year was no exception, and the restaurant was fabulous. It was authentic, fresh, and the staff was more than excited to celebrate with us. They sang, they treated us to a yummy dessert, and they let Bo wear the sombrero the whole time. (Honestly, it was hard prying it off of his head when we left!). We all enjoyed Bo's birthday weekend....now how do we top it for next year?

Disney Day 2

Our 2nd day at Disney was just our little family, and we were determined to see some of the things we didn't do the first day & repeat our faves. We rode lots of rides...Hampton is obsessed with the Jungle Cruise, so that was a repeat, as was the Enchanted Tiki Hut, the train, and the racecars. We also rode It's A Small World a couple of times, which just mesmerizes all of us...the boys think it's awesome,  and we think someone should have had their glue gun taken away from them.

 

We loved getting to ride the Little Mermaid again now that it's officially open, along with checking out all the new stuff in Fantasyland. We stayed late that night, riding fun rides and going to a Dance Party with Goofy, Pluto, Chip, Dale, and Stitch. We ended with the night time electrical parade, which both boys loved. It was a great, magical trip, and we know we'll be back soon....especially since Hampton is already asking to go back. As much as our boys love it, we see Disney in our future for years to come!

 

Disney Day 1

We went to Disney twice during our long birthday weekend. The first day, we went with Bo's mom, who drove up from Boca Raton. Unfortunately, Grandpa Andy was sick, so he didn't get to make the trip, but we were thrilled that we got to hang out with Boba for a few days.

 

It was raining when we got to the Magic Kingdom, which we weren't thrilled about, but it was just a fine rain, we packed up the raincoats and went with it. Luckily, it only rained for just a little while and cleared up to be a beautiful day.  

 

Somehow we were there all day, yet didn't accomplish much! We rode a few rides, wandered around, ate a bit, watched some parades & shows, and that was it! Life just doesn't move too fast when you have 2 littles, and we were all ok with that. Hampton LOVED the racecars, and he and Bo got in several rides while Harrison napped.

 

It was a great day, with great memories! Here are a few of our faves from the day...
