Best Buds Outing February 2014

Derek took Kael to a Jazz game for their best buds outing. They went to city creek and played around and ate a bit. He said Kael just kept eating and eating! I think I have a 5 year old going on teenage boy already! They had McDonalds, popcorn, hot dogs, candy lots of candy. Most important though they had a great time  being best buds and the Jazz beat the Suns.

Daddy Daughter Date February 2014

Daddy daughter date to the Princess Ball! Since starting medical school we've decided on quality time since we don't get much quantity. Derek is such a great Dad and loves spending time with his kiddos. Eden had so much fun until her balloon popped in the car on the way home. It was pretty late at that point and well past bedtime. We sure love our pretty princess so much!

Day 6 and Day 7: Universal City Island of Adventure : AKA : Harry Potter World Day 1 The Rest: Day 2

The Castle

 Hagrid's Hut

The Three Broomsticks

 Lunch at the Three Broomsticks. Pumpkin fizz

Our awesome feast.

Inside the castle.

You walked through the castle to get to a 3D ride. You saw talking pictures, the sorting hat, Dumbledore, and even Harry, Ron, and Hermione talking to you!

 The Weasley's car.

 You saw Buckbeak on the ride "Flight of the Hippogriff".

 First sips of Butterbeer!!!

Everyone's first sips!

 Needless to say we are obsessed with Butterbeer now!!!

 We found a great relaxing spot. And then we did more Harry Potter. It was awesome!

Honeydukes! Need I say more?!

Zonko's was too much like a Muggle store, but it was still fun.

Everything else was just Muggleish, but we still posed at the Jurassic Park area. 

Day 2 at Universal Florida

It did not disappoint. It was still super fun! The rip ride Rocket was my favorite. You can see it on the top left. The red coaster that goes straight up!

Then, we went back to Harry Potter World and had more butterbeer! It was such a fabulous trip! I can't wait until the kids are older and we can take them on all this fun stuff!!!

We love these cousins of Derek so much! They sure were a great group to go play with! They are some of the most wonderful, awesome, fun, intelligent, respectful, amazing people we know. So much fun! Till our next trip Pinkston's!!! We can't wait!
