Happy 1st Birthday Raidon!!

I can't believe that Raidon is a year old!! This year has flown by and he has brought us so much joy and happiness. We just had a little party for him the night of his birthday and he had a blast! He loved his cake (as you can see) and he had it EVERYWHERE, even in his ears! He didn't just go for it though, he was very methodical in his eating. He wanted to enjoy every bite!!

We love you to the moon and back Raidon!! Happy Birthday to you and thanks for giving us such a happy life!!

Love,

Daddy, Mommy, and Sister

Home From Florida!

Well, we are home and we are all very happy to be back. We had a great time overall but, we will not be taking another big vacation like that until Raidon is at least 4 years old. The flight was BRUTAL!!! Our children don't like to sleep. I guess they are too nosey...I wonder where they get that from?

Anyway, the Magic Kingdom was great along with all of the Disney stuff but it was nice to get to Steve and Heathers to sort of relax a little. Although, they don't have children and their house was not the most kid friendly, so that opened up a whole new stress for us.

Oh, well. It was an experience that we will have forever. Enjoy a few more photo's of our trip!!

Downtown Disney

After coming home from the Animal Kingdom and giving the weather the chance to subside, we journeyed over to Downtown Disney. It was great fun!! They had a HUGE T-Rex restaurant, a Lego restaurant, and tons of other fun places to visit.

Animal Kingdom

Well, someone at the resort suggested that we try out the Animal Kingdom park and we are so very glad that they did!! It was INCREDIBLE!!!! We took a safari in Africa, browsed through Asia and enjoyed rides in the Dinosaur area! It began raining as soon as we entered the bus to the park and it steadily got harder and harder. By the time we arrived it had eased up a bit. We still bought rain poncho's as soon as we arrived. Thank goodness because it poured!! We did have a few good hours before the down pour!! But when it rained it RAINED!!! We eventually left (as well as everyone else) because it just kept getting worse!!

Disney World

Here we are at the Magic Kingdom! It is Disneyland in Florida. My first comment was what the hell did we come clear across the country to see exactly what we could have seen in Anaheim! It was sort of a dud but Reedley still had fun. We left a little early and ended up going to the swimming pool at the resort. That was cool, they played the movie Nemo on a huge screen for us to enjoy as we swam!!
