When will the madness end?

So, I have an A-mazing friend that I was lucky enough to meet whilst I was still working. We've stayed in touch over the years. She and her three sweet children have gone through some really horrid things. She and some other women have started a blog called Stoptheabuse21.blogspot.com. I don't know how else to help her except to spread the word. The laws that are set up to protect innocent people, especially children are not doing what they are supposed to be doing. If anything, they make the situation worse. I want to help change them, but I don't know how. I think that if we all use our vocies then maybe something will change right?

"Where does Satan live?"

We had just gotten done with reading scriptures tonight when K asked were Satan lives. With all the class I could muster I blurted out,"Hell." Why do I say adult words in front of small children?! I swear sometimes I just don't think! Anyway B was not even a full breath behind me trying to clean up my mess by saying,"Well, we don't say that word. We should say outer darkness." Well of course K has already taken the frist word and said it 700 times in the three seconds since I said it. So then he gets a troubled look on his face and asks,"Where's Hell?" B once again corrected him by saying outer darkness and then he said,"I don't know really." Without even a pause K said,"Hell is on an airplane." I died laughing. I guess we all know how he feels about flying!

They are our bests!

We are so blessed! Do you want to know why?! Because we get to call this A-mazing family are best friends! I can remember life before we met them, but I don't like to. They truly are such an amazing family. For those of you that had the oh so unfortunate experience of reading the post where I was having a huge pity party, I apologize profusely! That post has since been deleted, so if you didn't read it consider yourself lucky and immensely blessed. Anyway I have the huge blessing of calling this beautiful woman my best friend. She gets me 100% of the time. We cry together. We laugh together. We laugh so hard that we end up crying together again! We talk about EVERYTHING! Honestly, you name it, we've talked about it. Well this lovely lady had the unpleasant experience of reading my,"I'm feeling sorry for myself" post. Do you want to know what rock stars she and her husband are? They sent us a text tonight saying,"you guys might want to see this." http://youtu.be/4bTy6513omk. So we did. If you haven't stopped reading this and gone and looked at that, You should! We love this family and are so so blessed that they are and forever will be a part of our lives.

Disney World!

B had a break from school. We had saved all of our pennies and used Christmas money and were able to go up to Disney world for three days! It was awesome!
Pretty close to the top of our list to do was meet the princesses. Cinderella is the favorite princess in our house. We both love her. She was the most normal of the three that were there to meet. The other two seemed to take their job a little too seriously. They were nice, just a little odd.
How could one go to Disney world and not meet these two?! Thankfully our timing was perfect, we were first in line and we waited less than a minute! It was awesome! There is just something magical about Disney world, especially when you meet these mice. I couldn't help but smile when we met them. I met Mickey Mouse for the first time in my life on our Honeymoon in Disneyland. he kissed my hand and I totally blushed. The day we saw them in Disney world just happened to be our Anniversary. When I saw him I think I blushed again! I know that I'm all growed up, but I can't help that I get gitty around him.
This merry go round was a huge highlight! I did this with them. Happily I might add because it got me out of going on the tea cups!
They loved the tea cups. B is a rock star and went on with them more than once! It was so fun to watch them have such a good time.
Spending our eighth anniversary here with our children was awesome! M looked at B during the day and said,"This is like the best day of my life I think!" I love that they had so much fun. I love that even though we didn't get married in a castle and birds weren't singing or holding my veil, that we are still living happily ever after!
I must admit that the animal kingdom and Hollywood studios pailed in comparison to the magic kingdom. We still had fun, but if we go again, we will spend more time at magic kingdom. But, as you can tell from this picture, they still had a really good time!
K loves loves loves Chip and Dale! He wouldn't stand with them alone, but he walked back after the picture laughing saying that Chip had bonked him and he loved that!
I love this picture! I don't know why I like it so much. Maybe it's because Of the little hands that are part of K's pretend body. I can't say for certain, I just love it is all.
We went to the Finding Nemo show which was pretty cool. At the end of the show there were bubbles and M loved that. I love this picture too. It's probably safe to say that I love all 201 pictures that we took on our trip. Yes you read right, 201 pictures in 3 days!
There wouldn't have been a line too long to stand in to meet Mater. I'm pretty sure that K would stand in line for the rest of his life just to meet him. It was like a dream come true! He was even willing to be in the picture alone, but M was kind enough to go with him. Thank goodness for big sisters!
Can I just say that the toy story ride at Hollywood Studios is A.W.E.S.O.M.E! It was well worth the hour wait. M is convinced that she's the best player in the world. I wouldn't doubt it!
K loved it too! If there were more hours in the day, we would have stood in line over and over. It truly was so much fun!
We went to the Disney Jr. live show. We were picked to be the family that says the magic words to open the door. We had to knock and then say, Meeeeeska Mooooooska Mickey Mouse! Then we got to sit in the front row. The whole trip was so fun! I love that we were able to go and since we live here we got a discount. I love my little family so much!
When I was little, Goofy was my favorite. When I saw him I wanted my picture with him. I didn't know that I still have a little bit of a crush on him! I'm really embarrassed that I hugged him so tight. I'm pretty sure that I could feel the ribs of the human on the inside. To say it was a crushing hug would probably be an understatment! I guess I still think he's the best. I confessed my crush to B and thankfully he's ok with it!
This was after I told him that I think he's number one. He will always be number 1 to me! (The reason it has lines in it is because this is a picture the Disney World guy took. All the pictures they took they put on a card for us. Thay way when you get home you can look at all of them and order the ones you want. Well, we didn't want to pay $15 for a 4x6 so, we just took a picture of the computer screen=))

Slumber party

When we put them to bed they were in their own beds. When I went to check on them I found them here. I thought it was cute, took a picture, moved them back into their beds.(Now when I say I moved them back into their beds I mean B moved them back into their beds. ;)) The next night I went to check on them and found them sleeping on the floor again. When I ask why they sleep on the floor, they tell me that they slept in their beds. Since I move them, they don't remember that they fell asleep on the floor. As long as they sleep I don't really care, I just can't imagine that it would be very comfortable. But then again I loved to sleep on the floor when I was little and as I type this, B is on the floor in our room sleeping. So maybe their just born this way.

Let the games begin!

As of late, I have really been wanting to do wheelbarrow races. I didn't know if K was strong enough to hold himself up with his arms and walk. Clearly I was wrong. It was so fun! We did it for quite a while. K wanted to switch me and hold my legs up, alas, that was not to be. We raced to the sliding glass door. They were able to go much faster than I thought they would. It was awesome!

Next we wanted to have a jumping contest. You may be thinking that they changed their clothes. They said they wanted to get into their jammies before we continued. Anyway it was originally a contest to see who could jump the farthest, but soon turned into who could jump the highest. I think K got so pretty good vertical lift here.

Here is M taking her turn. I don't remember how many times she wanted to do it, but it was a whole lot! She wanted a picture taken each time too. She would look at the picture, laugh and then say,"It's my turn again!"

I thought that I got pretty high. I'm no pole vaulter or anything like that. but I felt like I was on top of the world looking down. Ok maybe not, but I didn't think it was too bad. But then I saw B jump.


Holy smokes! Talk about pretty impressive vertical lift! The light on the top of his head is because he's only a few inches away from the light. Sweet picture right?!

Happy Father's Day!

I am so thankful that these three people are part of my life! I love that we get to celebrate Father's day. B is the best dad in the whole world! He loves to play with these two little people. He spent most of the afternoon today playing house. There are few things in life worse than playing house, but he did it anyway. Then he battled both of them in a nail biting sword fight. I love to watch him interact with them. He is so gentle with them. I tease him because he's almost non-human because he doesn't get annoyed or upset with them. He just loves them. He is such an example to me and I love him. Besides the BYU tie that he got he wanted no bake cookies. I wanted to try something new.

Here it is! A BYU no bake cookie. I don't know what's wrong with me, but I can't make these cookies set up. No bake cookies. They sound idiot proof, but I have proved that theory wrong. Although they didn't set up and had to be eaten with a spoon B said that they still tasted good so that's a relief! Happy Father's Day baby! I love you and am so thankful that you're the reason we celebrate today!
