U. S. of A!!!

I had just gotten back from Jackson Hole on Sunday and then we were packing up our apartment and trying to catch up from all our vacation days; so our Fourth of July was very laid back.

Ryan worked from 12-8pm (getting paid time and a half!) so I stayed home and packed and studied for my school work. After work we buzzed up to South Jordan to celebrate with the Woodbury family. Clayne is kinda a firework-fanatic (I think Ryan is too) so we had plenty of ammunition.
We all went to Tyler and Melissa's house to light the night sky!
 The boys with their toys! ( please note Ryan's patriotic shirt)
 Sophie had lots of fun playing around.
 This was Ryan's Firework-Face!
What a good uncle protecting Sophie's ears during the show.

DWorld part dos!

This will be a picture OVERLOAD!!! I thought about splitting it up into 3 posts but then decided against it. I have other things that need to be blogged and I kinda wanna just get DisneyWorld blogs over with.  Here we go....
 We were there over the famous tropical storm Debbie. 


We got very good and whipping on our rain slickers at a moments notice. 
There was an amazing aquarium in Epcot that had dolphins, turtles, manatees, and tons of other fish. 

Ryan was so excited to see Captain Eo! It was so amazing. Last time I watched it I took of my 3D glasses for most of the movie(it was pretty scary for a 9 year old). I was proud that I kept them on the whole time. 
Playing around in the countries at Epcot. 

Some French street performers. 

We watched some fire explosions at Hollywood Studios.
5 points to whoever can name the movie this prop is from.


Ryan had a lot of fun playing around with this Tower of Terror worker. 
You can't see it but the Hollywood Studio hat is behind us. 
This is the golf course Ryan and Clayne played the last day of the trip. It was pouring on them.

Goofy liked me best!  
 We saw Fiesta Donald! 
 Funny story, Ryan and I love Duffy the Disney Bear. On our honeymoon we were walking past the Duffy stand and no one was there and everyone looked super sad so we went over and a Duffy hug and a Duffy sticker. We then went on our merry way to the Screamin' California Roller Coaster on the way we saw Jessie and the Green Army man from Toy Story. The Army man was hilarious. In a very military voice he said "I see that you just got married." (we had 'just married' pins) and "I see that you just hugged Duffy" We died laughing and now its a cute inside joke between us. 

 For lunch one day we went to this nifty fifty's diner.  
 This was the most amazing intense roller coaster I have ever been on. It was Aerosmith themed with their music blasting in your ears while you went on a crazy fast ride through pitch black "streets" SO FUN!  
This was the typical Disney look on this trip...soaked! I did manage to hang out with my good friend the Pink Power Ranger.

I am so thankful to my in-laws who made this whole trip possible. It was so fun for me to get to know them better. Ryan and I have been married for about 18 months now and I know the Woodbury's pretty well but going to a new place was so much fun with them. They are truly amazing people and I can't wait for the next time we get to play with them.
