Disney World

We just spent 6 days in Disney World. It was so much fun, thank you Cyndy! The kids were great on the flight and Kimmie was so excited to get there. We did so much while we were there, too much to write about, so here are some pictures instead. The one thing that I don't have a picture of is me riding Summit Plummet at Blizzard Beach. Me, Seth and Cyndy went on it and it was so much fun! Me, Kathy, Cyndy & Toni (Cyndy's friend) also went to see Cirque Du Soleil. It was an amazing show, I can't believe the crazy things they can do! Aside from getting a little sick it was a great trip! Kimmie loved seeing BIG Mickey and Kimmie's castle (she thinks everything is hers now). Here are a few of the many, many pictures taken, I will post more later.

Her FAVORITE ride, DUMBO!!!

It's a Small World was one of her favorite rides!

Kimmie loved the fireworks, if you look closely at her hands she is making them "pop" like fireworks

watching with Oma & Papa

biting Daddy's shirt

too funny!

Our score on the new Toy Story ride, Chrissy wins again:)

the new Toy Story ride is 3D

They have a place at Epcot where you pay to pick an oyster and they open it up right in front of you and you get the pearl inside. It was so fun. Seth had it put into a beautiful necklace setting, I will take a picture of that later.

Our second 5K

Yesterday we ran the Tigard 5K (3.1 miles). It is the same one we ran last year. Seth and Scott were both able to beat their times from last year by a lot. I knew I was not going to beat my time from last year, since this time I just had a baby 12 weeks ago. I had two goals: one was not to walk at all and the other was to run a 12 minute mile. I am so proud because I accomplished both my goals! My time was 33:30. Seth, Scott, Rossii & Eli are running the Portland Marathon in 3 weeks and me, Angie and Alena are running a 5 mile race that same day. Hopefully I can finish that race without walking!
We leave for Disney World this Tuesday so we are busy trying to get ready for that. I am sure I will have a lot of pictures to post.
