D-to the WORLD! Part 1

Hey y'all we be in Florida right now! In Disney World to be exact.
Ryan's amazingly generous parents decided to treat us to Disney World since they took the family while Ryan was on his mission. We said that would be ok by us! ;)

We flew in Monday night at midnight (Florida time) and got settled in the condo and went to bed dreaming of Mickey, Minnie and friends.

Tuesday we woke up early and hit the ground running at Animal Kingdom. The first ride of the day was Expedition Everest. This was the ride I was looking forward to most. The first run through was amazing and full of screams and laughs. Then we made a disastrous  plot move. We decided to jump right back in line with our Fast Pass and do it again. This time around Ryan didn't leave happy. He was dehydrated and it lead to motion sickness. He spent the rest of the morning in the First Aid room sleeping. After a nap and eating some foods he felt much better and we headed over to Epcot to finish the day off walking around the countries.

I saw an alligator! How fun is that?



Epcot was so much fun. We walked around most of the countries and just played in the shops and laughed. 
 Don't you just love Ryan's sun sensitive eyes?
 I got some Mickey Ears in Epcot! 
 Playing around in Mexico! 

Wednesday we went to the Magic Kingdom to play. Unfortunately Ryan got motion sickness in the car on the way to the park. I took him to the First Aid where the nurse gave him a pill and a bed to sleep on. Ryan took another nap then ate some food and was ready to go. It rained most of the day so we didn't take any pictures except 3. We rode Splash Mountain several times, Space Mountain, Buzz Lightyear, Small World, Stitch's Great Escape, The Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor and tons more rides. 

I was so happy that Ryan was feeling better and could play around with us instead of sitting in First Aid. Disney World just isn't as fun with a sick husband. We realized that like clock work Ryan usually feels better after 2:00.

Pictures Pictures and more Pictures

Remember how for awhile my camera was lost. Well it is now found and thus I will overload this post with pictures of the past few vacations.
My Pops and I went down to Moab for the Easter Jeep Safari. While we were there my dad had lots of fun with his Christmas present.

It was just the two of us, like old times. We both left our sweethearts at home and so we were eager to get back.
My cousin Austin got married down in Arizona. This is Elder Heywood, he is currently in Brazil but was the hit of the wedding.
At the wedding Lindsay, the bride, made sure all her guests got milk and sweets!
Marie, Ryan and I spent some time outside during the reception. It took Marie awhile to gain the courage to walk across this shaky bridge.
I taught Ryan how to burn cotton.
He was a natural.
Marie's lacrosse team went to Nationals in Colorado. She was named All Tournament Defensive Player (a HUGE honor) and was given that nice bruise and also a new lacrosse shaft.
The Woodburys all went to St. George this last weekend for some R and R. We went and saw Aladdin at Tuacahn. It was amazing. During the Cave of Wonders section it was 3D! Tuacahn always goes above and beyond with their wonderfullness.
Our niece Sophie enjoyed the 3D glasses as well. ;) 

And the biggest thing that has happened in the last few months was my Dad got himself a bride! He and Darla were married June 2nd at my Grandparents Davidson's house.
 I now have 2 stepbrothers(Jared and Dallen, & Jared's Girlfriend) and a stepmother.
 Grandparents Heywood came all the way from Gilbert to show their love and support. It was so good to see them! 




My family. I am so excited to have Darla in the family officially now. She is so kind and wonderful to be around. I love how she makes my dad so happy. Thank you Darla!
