Wednesday Wardrobe - 28 June 2013 Fun Post

Guest Post By John Mabes

This week was spent running throughout the various parks that make up Universal Studios. It was a complete blast, but man they made for some long days.

Out of all the various themed sections, the top three were: Jurassic Park, Harry Potter's Hogwarts, and Dr Seuss-Ville. The sheer faces of astonishment and excitement were when the baby velociraptor was "born," getting to pick out a wand, and riding the "Cat in the Hat" ride. Oh in case you were wondering she decided she wanted to pick Hermione Granger because "She's a girl and is smarter than Harry Potter."

We finished the day with a nice round of Butterbeer at Hog's Head Tavern.

Today we spent the day outside in the lovely town of Valdosta, GA. After walking around the downtown area, the kids decided to spend the rest of the afternoon in the back yard. And as you can see it was a fun time for all. 

Once they got the basics down, not only was it a blast but they got quite good. Of course the there was a good portion trying to chase down the ball once it was hit.

Summer is awesome and so is this kid

This is a late publish, I just realized it didn't actually post from June 15th. Oops. 

Things we can do:

- climb door frames like a boss. 

-take awesome self portraits 

- ride ponies (the same one she rode the first time she was ever on a pony. His name is Zach.)

-celebrate birthdays with best friends. 

-play in the sprinkler

- and be ingenious about umbrella use. 

Summer has been pretty good to us so far. 

Summer by webcam

Well here is the summer so far as I know it. 

We are the champions!

Aurora was the winner of "first catch" at the local fishing rodeo! Lucky girl! 

Gulf Shores trip

Aurora is having a great time at the beach this week! She has become a great surfer and swimmer and sand crab catcher.  We've been blessed with wonderful weather and great company. She is looking forward to our annual North Carolina trip this summer too. Aurora is growing up so quickly. 

"Better not mess up my water hole plans!"

Field day at school

Aurora's field day was a blast! They spent the whole morning outside in their "outdoor classroom" playing games and exploring! Then they had a picnic lunch and were able to buy snow cones! 

At the end of the day she was completely worn out!
