Well it seems like it has been forever since I've updated about what is going on around our household. The summer started out pretty busy around here, but has finally slowed down some. I just love summer. No schedules to follow, sleeping in a little and no homework to help with. On the down side the noise can get pretty loud around here....especially when Charlie and Ashley start getting on each others nerves. That is when I wanna jump in the car and head to work. HAHA
We started our summer off with a long anticipated family Vacation to Walt Disney World in Orlando. We had a wonderful time. It was hot and humid, very crowded but so much fun. We saw lots of fun stuff and had 7 full days of sun and fun, but were ready to come home to our own beds and less humidity.
This little guy had a tough time in the heat...he just turned beet red and his little head would sweat, but that didn't keep him down. He wanted in on all the action for sure. Here he is at Ridemakerz in Downtown Disney. This was a fun place that you get to build a custom remote control car. He got a little blue hot rod and loves to crash it all over the place. Ashley also built one...hers is a pink hot rod with custom wheels and lights. They really had a lot of fun doing this, and I gave us a break from the Florida sun for a little while.
Another first for this trip was Charlie's first airplane ride...let's just say it was an experience that I'm not ready to do again for a while! Look how beautiful this is. I love all the landscaping around there.
Another milestone that kicked off our summer was Conner's graduation. Oh goodness I just cant believe he has grown up so fast. I was 18 when he was born and now he is about to embark on a new chapter in his life! I love this kid so much, and it was a bit hard watching him walk across that stage to receive his high school diploma! I know great things are in store for him. He is a great young man! Congratulations Conner, we are so proud of you!
