Favorite Time of the Day

Morning is my favorite time. I love waking up to happy kids. This morning Zoe was in bed with me (from a 6am feeding and going back to sleep until 8) and woke up so happy. Anything I did made her smile and sometimes even laugh. Then Jase woke up and came in the room, jumped in bed, and snuggled next to me. Morning or middle of the night when daddy is gone is the only time Jase will snuggle with me. So when he does snuggle I love it. Jase started playing with Zoe and she would laugh and I would laugh, and this went on for about 30 minutes to 1 hour. Then of course the morning bladder ruined it. Mornings like these put a wonderful start to a great day, and of course today was great (besides the missing daddy).

It's official we've moved!!!

So we have finally moved on from Florida. I have mixed feelings but am glad to be heading forward in life. Me, Keldon and the kids flew out Easter morning, with 8 bags under the plane, and were able to spend the day with both families. Keldon then helped me Monday, before his flight back to Florida, arrange the rooms we will be staying in. Our pod came Thursday and my bro-in-law helped me unpack it, it took about 15 min. We left most of our stuff in Florida and only brought back what we really use and need (no furniture except our beds). Keldon has to finish up his 2 weeks at DCA so they will pay him his vacation time and leave on good terms, but he will be back with our family shortly. Right now we are living with my mom until about the middle of April then moving into a house. A house right it's crazy, but Keldons brother is being very generous and letting us live in his house until it sells while he is living in his other house. Keldons family has been so giving and generous throughout this whole school time I can't believe it. Were excited to see where the next step in life is and where Keldon will get a job (hopefully SkyWest, but we'll see). I still feel like I'm just on vacation and haven't actually moved but I'm sure it will kick in once Keldon is back. We miss our Sanford ward and hope our ward here will be as good as it was there (I'm sure it will be). I'm excited to be close to family and Jase to be around all his cousins, now he has so many people to play with. Zoe is also getting use to other people, she has been so used to being around just me she wont let anyone hold her. We're trying to fix that and she starting to get a little better, slowly but surly.

Warbird Airshow

Keldons birthday was Sunday March 16, so he really wanted to go to an airshow. Well it was our last Sunday in our ward and the last day to see the airshow, so we decided to cheat and sin and go to the airshow. I'm sorry to everyone in our ward, but I figured I was planning to see them that Thursday anyways. Keldon was really happy I said yes to go and we had a lot of fun. We saw a lot of airplanes military and non-military. Jase liked to look at the airplanes parked and even got to go inside one, but when we were actually watching the planes they were too loud for his liking. I think I got some really good pictures of the planes, especially with how fast they were going.

















Disney World -Animal Kingdom-

Disney Animal Kingdom

This was the last park we went to, it was a lot of fun but not as much fun as I was expecting it to be. I think Jase has the most fun anywhere as long as there is water. His favorite ride at this park was the rapids ride then when he got off he played in this water spout. He got himself even wetter than the rapids. Its a good thing we brought extra cloths for him to wear because they didn't dry all day.






They did have a little petting farm with goats, lambs, chickens and such. Jase loved to pet them Zoe wasn't quite sure what to think.








Well these are all the pictures we took of Animal Kingdom. I forgot to charge the battery the night before so it died at the beginning. It's alright though I have a ton of pictures. I love my new camera.

Disney World -Magic Kingdom-

Disney Magic Kingdom

This was the funnest park we went to out of them all. We went 2 nights for just a couple hours and all day one day. Jase even stayed up till around 10pm with no nap because he was having so much fun.


Jase wanted to go on Splash Mountain, so we let him. He first went on it with daddy. I figured he would come off really scared and say he didn't want to go on it ever again. Luckily for me he came off really wanting to go again and couldn't wait to go on it with me. When we were on the ride we came to the first little dip and I screamed yeah, he looked at me and said, "mom that was just a little one". It was the funniest thing.


Eyore and Zoe, he was the only big character that she liked, all the others she freaked out and started crying, you'll see by the other pictures.





Jase got a Pirate Micky hat and was really excited, he loved it.




Jase and Zoe both got a chance to ride on daddy's shoulders and both love it.


Me and Jase on the teacups, he didn't like it so much. He saw the mouse coming out of the tea kettle in the middle and tried to keep his eyes on it because it scared him.


The beautiful blue Cinderella castle at night.


Mickey and Minnie dancing.


Me and Jase on Dumbo ride. This is my favorite ride and has been since I was little, I told Jase that and now he says it's his favorite ride.

Disney World -Hollywood-

Our second day of Disney we went to Hollywood, used to be MGM.

Keldon was very excited to go on Tower of Terror, and it was a lot of fun. Jase was big enough to go on it but he was too scared so we didn't make him. Keldon went on first while I watched the kiddies then we switched. Its not quite as fun by yourself, but thats alright.


We went into a play area where we were shrunk. Jase is sliding down a huge roll of film. He loved this area.

We met Mater & Lightning McQueen, Jase (as you can tell by his face) was sooooo excited. He even had his Lightning McQueen shoes on and a Cars shirt on.


We saw the Sulley and Mike from Monsters Inc. Zoe woke up to seeing Sully and was a little afraid. She doesn't seem to like the costumes, I didn't think she would even notice. I thought Jase would be scared but it was the opposite way around.

First no water, just a big mountain thats a little wet.


Then rushing water towards our car.


Then as the rushing water was coming it started coming from up top. Jase was pretty freaked out but me and Keldon thought it was cool. Zoe didn't mind much either.

These are the same bone circles that were used in Pirates of the Caribbean


Zoe fell asleep just like this during a car stunt show.
