Disney World: Day Four

The Barsons joined us the day we went to Epcot Center. I think this was my favorite day! I have great memories of Epcot Center from when I was a kid and Ryan knows how to do Epcot--we stopped in almost every country in the World Showcase for food! And, the kids loved being with their cousins. After Ryan and Heather left that night we had a small miracle happen when Nate and I split up (he took Lia to go on a ride Laura and Josh and Megan didn't want to go on) and he never came to our meeting spot. I couldn't get a hold of him on his phone and figured it must have died. We decided to say a prayer after an hour of waiting and wondering and I was finally able to get a hold of him. His phone turned on magically and he was able to get my call. We were so grateful and relieved to have found him!

Disney World: Day Three

Day three was in Disney's Animal Kingdom. We got poured on all day! The rain was a little miserable, but the park was really cool. We got stuck on a dinosaur ride that Josh and Megan were scared of before it even started, let alone having to stay on it for an extra 30 minutes, but the rest of the rides were great and the park was very pretty. We had dinner that night at the Rain Forest Cafe which the kids were really excited about. It was another fun day!

Disney World: Day Two

We spent our second day at Hollywood Studios. It was really hot so the indoor, air conditioned shows were perfect! We watched the fireworks show that night. It was pretty cool, but a little scary. I took the last picture of Lia and Laura on our way out of the park that night. That picture is an example of one of the biggest reasons why we take vacations--to have a break from the routine and reconnect. It's worth every penny!

Disney World: Day One

We spent our first day at Disney World in the Magic Kingdom. The kids were so excited to be there and we had a fun day! We ended the night on the Peter Pan ride (my favorite one) and caught the last of the fireworks.

Barson's House

Josh loved being at Ryan and Heather's House! There was a swimming pool, lizards, legos and boy cousins. What could be better? He didn't want to leave when it was time to go to our hotel.

Lia built these legos while we were watching general conference at Ryan's. They were great hosts and we had a great time with them!
