Part II - Photo #5 - me in my Hapari suit after 3 days at Disney...

Animal Kingdom ~ Disney World
 Festival of the Lion King
 Boys love Goofy - Hot Dog hot dog hot diggity dog
 Cam HATED Donald - poor Donald...I think he is cute

 YUP - that is me...It is called the Hapari Hippo go Naked suit 
(Disney is NOT Kristi Approved)
 Carson finally saw (up close) his nemesis and I think he has conquered his fear of Alligators and Crocodiles

 Dinner
 Cam has knock knees and this little Giraffe's knees looked just like his...so cute.  Cam picked out a Giraffe a few months ago at Anthropologie (which actually got replaced by Goofy yesterday) that is SO cute and he named him Oliver (Owiver)!
 Baby Elephant
 Do you know why Flamingos are pink?

Disney World...

 Trying to entertain Crew on the plane.  We left SLC and an hour and a half into the flight the pilot said we and to turn around because of a landing gear light.  Turned around and had to re-book us.  Needless to say we left our house at 8am and got into Tampa at 11pm.  We actually spent 3 days on the BEACH in St. Pete (great place) and then drove to Orlando for Disney...

 kisses

WARNING - the weather was PERFECT for theme parks and NO ONE (according to Disney) was there! (minus some Jewish people on break from NY and Brazilians)




It's a Small World - I think it might be the best!

John loved taking the boys on the tea cups

So, I have heard horror stories about husbands and fighting at Disney...I can SEE it and HEAR it.  However, I think John and were just OUTNUMBERED...so, we didn't fight or disagree plus it wasn't hot nor were the lines bad...no wait times for pretty much anything.  However, I see how it happens...John and I were in survival mode.  Honestly, how do you fight when you have 3 small kids and so much competition?  We were on our toes ALL day! Whew - no Amber Alerts today!

and then there is Crew Crew
'Are we still here?'
I have a thesis to write
NASCAR




Laugh on the Floor
Awesome restaurant - TRex








Laughing because the dinosaur behind John came ALIVE and started EATING him

So, I am putting this at the bottom so no one reads it but I NEED to remember...my kids do NOT like theme parks.  I didn't know if I should beat them (laugh) or charge them for the ticket price (which are HEFTY to say the least $500.55 for 2 days which was for 2 adults and 1 child).  Anyway, they wanted to go to the pool or the beach.  Secretly, I am VERY happy - I don't love rides or theme parks or lines etc but I really thought they were going to LOVE it.  So, if you are hesitant - buy a couple tickets for a REAL safari in AFRICA - seriously, I could plan an entire vacation for 7 days on Safari or a remote island that would be less costly and more time efficient.  I am not kidding when I tell you that I could arrange an entire vacation with a private chef, house, on an island, white sand beaches, even some mickey ears, activities out the wazoo and REAL LIVE animals for LESS than a Disney vacation...I can!

Nest

 I made this for Crew's room - I actually wanted to hang it above his crib but John said 'No.'  He thought it could potentially fall down on him which is odd since he was hanging it.  If you look closely each little center ball is a handprint.  Carson, Cam and Crew really loved doing that project (bright red and or black paint).  I found some cute danglers that say 'wish' and 'believe.'  Not sure Crew can even see it from where his crib is in the room but hey he is SAFE!

Seriously? What is happening...

 Crew wants to be a plumber
 Tori is going to potty train my puppy
 Cam refuses to potty train - I have bribed him with EVERYTHING.  
Tori is going to potty train my son!
 John has a plumber's crack - hahaha just kidding 
(I made him do an airbrush spray tan and he has on Hapari bottoms).  Afton ran after him and just barely snapped this photo.
Crew is LITERALLY sitting in Molson's water bowl (yes...it was full of water).  
All of my kids LOVE the water bowl - why?
