Magic, Magic, Magic!!

Justin and I celebrated our 2nd anniversary on April 18th! Time just goes so fast, I can hardly believe it!

For our special occasion we decided we needed a little trip...

TO DISNEY WORLD!!!!!


It was amazing! It was a really quick trip, but worth every second.

Trip Outline:

Day 1: Fly to Orlando on Southwest... one plane change and 2 stops later
we dropped off everything at the hotel and went walking around Downtown Disney.
Found some food for our stomachs that only had eaten beef jerkey, red licorice, and
airplane munchies all day.

Day 2: Wake up at 7am and be ready to catch the bus to Disney at 8am.
Gates open at 9am, and we were off to Magic Kingdom to ride everything
we possibly could as fast as we could.


Day 2 1/2: Ride Monorail to Epcot. Experience half of Epcot to it's fullest
potential, and decide we need to come back in the morning to finnish the other half.
Jam over to Magic Kingdom for light show, and to ride the rides again until midnight.


End Day 2: Eat something because we're starving and hadn't eaten anything but
snacks all day long, and then crash in our hotel room with sore feet.

Day 3: Wake up at 7am, take bus to Epcot to finnish up, and then
go to Animal Kingdom to experience as much of that as possible (ie. hit all rides
and get SOPPING wet, and see 1 or 2 select shows.)


Day 3 1/2: As fast as possible leave Animal Kingdom and go to Disney Hollywood
Studio's to see what that's all about. Ride the rides, and then
go back to Epcot till close because we loved it SOOOO much!


End Day 3: Leave Epcot and go to Magic Kingdom for last time. See the light
parade and ride all the rides over and over AGAIN till midnight.
Go back to hotel and crash, again with very angry/sore feet.

Day 4: Wake up whenever we want. Grab late breakfast and
walk around Downtown Disney trying to find souvenirs (ended up with
playing cards {which is a must}, and 2 Christmas ornaments.)

Day 4 1/2: Catch bus to airport and fly Southwest back home with
3 stops.

End Day 4: Crash in our own bed.

Like I said, it was QUICK!!! But totally worth it. However, it's a long way to go, and we'll probably just stick with Disneyland on the west coast from now on. Neither one of us had ever been, and I hadn't been to anywhere Disney since 4th grade! We felt like little kids the whole time. It was a blast!!!

I love my honey and I'm so glad I get to spend Eternity with him.

30+ Books in 1 year

Well here it goes!

I am on a reading kick. I can thank Liz's husband, Bobby Green, for that. He mentioned that He wanted to read 30 books in 1 year, and I jumped on that band wagon! So far so good.

It's the last day in February, and I've already read the following:

- The Host
- The Hunger Games
- Catching Fire
- The Mockingjay
- Water For Elephants
- City of Bones

I started this whole thing about 2 weeks into January, so I'm averaging a book a week. I'm not gonna lie, I'm pretty proud of myself. Six books in 6 weeks, no big deal. I have to read one book every week and a half... not to toot my own horn, but I'm a little ahead of that game. However, I am quickly running down my list of books to read.

I NEED RECOMMENDATIONS!

Anything any of you have read or have wanted to read, please let me know! I've got a little list of about 6 more books, and I need at least 18 more! HA!

I added a book log on the side over there -->
I like it.
It lets anyone who reads this know what I've already read.

I'm enjoying my little escapade.

Wish me LUCK!

I Hate Snow...

But I have to say,

This was SO FUN!

We went snow mobiling on Saturday (I even had to buy my first pair of snow pants just for this). It was a blast! We went with my dad up to our Cabin at Wrights lake.

It was completely covered in snow and a great place to go a little crazy. I had never been up there when it's covered in snow like that. As you can see, the cabin is completely covered in snow.


It was so neat to see it all like this. We can't wait to go back!!!
