Disney's Hollywood Studios

With Covid taking place Disney had to do things a little differently.  One such thing is asking people to make reservations to attend a certain park.  Thankfully we were able to make it work or we would not have been able to attend Disney's Hollywood Studios.  Hollywood Studios was by far the boys' favorite park thanks to Star Wars' Galaxy Edge.  

FAVORITES OF THE DAY 

  • Millennium Falcon Ride
  • Toy Story's Slinky Rollercoaster
  • Toy Story's Mania Shooting Game
  • Tower of Terror
  • Talking with Storm Troopers




































Spring Break in Orlando

This past week we decided to celebrate spring break with a family vacation.  We planned it just under a month ago to fly down to Orlando, Florida to adventure out to the beach and Disney World.  I'm so glad we did because it really was one of the best vacations we have ever had.  The 80-degree temperatures, family time, lower mask restrictions, and the activities we did made it an amazing week. 

The first day was a travel day.  We left late in the afternoon so we didn't do anything but get to the house (VRBO) when we arrived in Florida.  It still made it for a fun day as Maddie had never been on a plane before, and as you can see, lucky Dad and Nana were in rows ahead of the kiddos and me.

Kallen Turns 9 Years Old

Today Kallen turned 9!  He really is our smack in the middle child and everyone chooses Kallen whenever they want a partner.  That's because he is so easy to love.  His heart is so kind and loving to all.  He has a passion to help others and do what is right.  He is still one smart, funny, and hardworking boy with an engineering mind.  

Kallen continues to love anything to do with Legos, dinosaurs, playing with friends, Star Wars, board games, video games, and basketball.  

Happy 9th Birthday, Kallen!
We love you so much and are all thankful for you.

Today we also celebrated Kallen with a small family party.  Due to spring break and Covid, we were not able to throw a friend party.  Kallen chose to have an Ewok party theme.  We opened presents, ate birthday cake, and had his dinner choice of rotisserie chicken with sweet potato fries.

Elyse's Basketball Season

Elyse just finished her 2021 basketball season and she improved her game so much this year.  It was so fun watching her be aggressive, score, and enjoy the game.  She even had a weekend tournament and they got second since they were playing the hardest team in the traveling division.

Boys' Basketball

Today the boys' all had their final games for the 2021 basketball season.  Ian's team played their first and only real game, and he did awesome!  They won their game and Ian scored a basket.  Kallen's team lost but played their heart out and did great.  They were playing the hardest team in the league.  Lastly, Caleb's team ended up losing the first game and won the rest making them the fourth-grade champions.  We were so proud of him.  Such a fun day for them all.
