My 4th Birthday

August 14th was my 4th Birthday. We went to Universal Studios and had a small private party. It was a great way to turn 4.

 

I got to hang out with Lightening McQueen and Mator. It was cool.... even got a picture.

Got to see a shark from its foods point of view.

And got to meet some movie starts.

Me and Mommy with a few presents....

Me simulating blowing out the candles.

More presents....

Got some Ninja turtle and Star Wars stuff....

I would rather play than take pictures.

 

All in all it was a really good Birthday, with a vacation thrown in.... I am sure my 5th Birthday will be fun too, but I have been told I have to wait awhile for that one!

Animal Kingdom..... it is a Zoo Daddy.

Our next place to Visit was Animal Kingdom. It should be named you need to be this tall to ride at the kingdom, but that is just like. It was more a petting or viewing zoo, but it was fun never the less.

 

How I spent my day, riding my very own Daddy. They come in different sizes, but mine is made for riding.

Who knew in August that it would be so hot.

See animals....

Chip and Dale, you guys are so cool. Unlike that Mickey guy who would not even come out in the rain!

My two new best friends!

So how long you worked here? Good benefits?

So do we get a discount for cleaning the goats?

Is that the spot?

 

We were followed to Magic Kingdom by a large black cloud and it brought a lot of rain with it. I think the Animals enjoyed the water.

Disney!!!!!!!!!!! Magic Kingdom actually!

A few weeks into August we went to Disney World to celebrate Christopher's Birthday. We had a great time over all, it was a learning experience for sure. Next time, when he is 25 we will be spot on! Of course his birthday did not come until we were there for 4 days.... So we visited a lot of places in between!

The night of arrival - we got out bands activated!!! Thank you Mommy and Daddy!

Now that is a train.... it was crowded, could not get a picture.

So this log does what?

Ok, Daddy, ask the people in front to take the picture.

Hmm.... never seen a rabbit do that!

Really, for that much this is what I get? No, really?

So when will you start construction on my new tree house.

It is the Magic Kingdom and they can't stop the rain?

No, really can we get someone to stop the rain?

 

The Magic Kingdom was magical, however, as most people know the weather can really factor in to a trip. It was August in Florida, I am just glad we did not have a Hurricane!!!

Bowling with the Family!

We are back.... August has been very busy and we hope to post some pictures to share it with you. Blogging sometimes takes a back seat to other things.

 

Over in wonderful Destin they now have a "Fish Bowl," a Bass Pro bowling alley. It is really cool and we have tried it out a few times. Hard to take quality pictures while bowling, so here is the before shot.

 

The three bowlers and their pet shark.

 

Do not worry, more to come!

A garden update

Here is  another Garden up date. Taken this morning. It has not been a easy summer for the Garden, unlike some areas, we have had a ton of rain. The rain impacted the carrots and scallions. So we might not see a good crap there. As far as the other stuff it is growing. A lot of lessons learned this year and their is always next year. It is the first time we had to clear the land and start from zero.

 

Me with the Garden.

It is early morning, waiting on the sun to clear the trees.

The tomatoes are blooming and taller than me.

Not sure if you can see the beans. They are the first to produce.

Another view.

Seems the watermelon and Tomatoes are doing the best, follow by the beans, peas and peppers.

 

Like I said, this year we are leaning how to garden in Florida. Between the soil (Sand), too much hard rain at times and clearing the land, we have learned a lot. Of course, we have until early November to see how it will all turn out!

Back to Big Kahuna's!

Daddy and I went back to Big Kahuna's. Of course it was my idea, but Daddy had fun too. Who knows, if I get my way, we will go again.

 

First ride of the day.

Lazy river....

Just hanging out.

Kiddie wave pool.

A different view of the fun!

Splash!

Too much fun!

All smiles for me!

One more time....

Glad I am not paying the water bill!

Inside the submarine.

Another slide....

Traffic jam on the lazy river.

Plenty of water around here....

 

It was a great day. Looking forward to the next visit.

Not a lot going on, but I am keeping busy

It has been kind of slow around here lately. Just hanging out, playing or visiting places close to home. Guess we are just relaxing. The good news is we have a big trip planned for the three of us for my Birthday!! You will have to wait to find out what I have planned!

 

Hanging at Turkey Creek. Daddy and me walked the whole 1.5 miles and I did not have to carry Daddy.

Legos. You can really built some cool stuff.

Here is a garden up date. We weeded... and our carrots and scallions are coming in.

Fun with bubbles out side.

Fun with bubbles inside.

 

Anyway.... summer is moving along. I will be four years old in less than a month and I start school in one month. Hope all is well where ever you are....
