Play Time in May

They really do love each other!! For the most part, they play so well together.







We also went golfing at Winter Summerland. It's one of Disney's mini golf courses. This one is all Santa themed. One course is in the winter. The other in the summer. This time we did the summer version and took some funny pictures along the way.



They LOVE being scared!



Cameron also wanted to start learning how to play tennis. There is a tennis court in our community. He has great form!



We played pirates with our upside down Burger King crowns.



Cameron loves to read Melia bedtime stories in her new big girl bed! Muffin Man is one of her favorites. Along with some Elmo books.



Of course you know we had Disney time! Well a trip to Magic Kingdom and also Hollywood Studios. It was a Toy Story kind of night. Dinner at Pizza Planet, 3 times on the Toy Story ride, and we bribed Cameron for the Buzz/Woody picture...there always seems to be Wii bribery going on. He did great though. Melia wouldn't let go of Woody so Cameron just stayed in place.



Funny Story - We took the kids to Typhoon Lagoon. It's one of the Disney water parks. They have a huge wave pool. Part of the time, it's like a pool. Then half the time, they launch the most massive waves ever. It makes a loud sound as it launches. We thought...let's take the kids out and swim a little bit then when the big waves start we'll come back in closer. When they made the announcement I  kept saying to David "do you think we're still too far out?". He kept saying surely by this point they've died down. Well, he was wrong. Seconds after the first wave launched I knew it was bad. I started backing up with Melia as fast as I could. As the wave hit us, I jumped as high as I could and pushed Melia up as high as I could. David didn't have the same sense with Cameron. Regardless, the wave crashed over all of us. I swear the kids thought we were trying to drown them. We had about 30 seconds to get in before the next one launched. As soon as Cameron heard it, he took off like a bat out of hell...never saw him run so fast. He was not impressed. It was so funny...after the fact.

Then just a random shot.

Visitors - Grandma Beth, Aunt Lynn, Oliva & Ava come to Orlando!

Grandma Beth, Aunt Lynn, Olivia, and Ava came to visit us. The first day they got in, we decided to jump in the car and head down to Downtown Disney for some dinner and fun. We planned to go to Cameron's favorite restaurant there - T-Rex. It was raining (of course) so we had to take our umbrellas. The kids had a great time playing at the Lego store too.



We kept trying for a good picture of us in Mickey ears.



We made the next day out our Magic Kingdom day! The girls had never been there before. We got there in the morning and stayed for fireworks and the electrical parade. Our day started off with Mickey pictures. Of course, Cameron wasn't interested at all so it was just the girls. Then we spent the rest of the day riding rides and visiting a few characters. Of course it rained...so we had to have a picture of us in our ponchos. While Olivia & Melia loved the electrical parade...they sat on the curb waving at all of the floats, Ava & Cameron crashed.



Somewhere halfway through the day Ava and Cameron became friends. It was short lived though...but we got some cute photos.



The rest of the time everyone was here we stayed close to home and let them play. We did go down to the farmer's market one day for a little shopping and splash park fun. The kids swam in the pool.



Then we ended their long weekend with letting Melia open a really early birthday present...a sandbox.
