A Week of Rafting

Well friends, I have survived a whole week of rafting, and being in a river. I know, I know, we're all shocked. BUT - I went and had an all right time. This is the first time I've been since our raft flipped, but I was like, I should probably get back in at some point. I was nervous and cried a little after we went through the rapid that flipped us, but overall, did all right! There was a rafting trip every day, and by today  I am really sick of water. For people who like water, that's all right, this is a great trip, but I get really sick of water after about 2 days. But I did find a cupcake shop here and found a delicious lemon cupcake.

Tomorrow we go home, and I am just so jazzed to be back in my own bed again. There's been too much traveling this month, I miss my house and Cookie!

Stamping and Chatting

Last night was Stamp and Chat, and good times were had by all. We made our cutie cards:

 and then afterwards, we had delicious treats. The theme seemed to be lemon, as multiple people brought lemon-flavored things, but I brought Brookies and was pleased with all of them.

Darth and Gecko

I also really missed these guys while I was gone.

 Look at his smile!

 He makes such the weird faces.

Look at these two dapper gentlemen with their hair done. What great guys.

Ice Skating

Tonight for YW, we went ice skating. I was pretty jazzed, I hadn't been in a while. And...it showed. I definitely struggled! I can't believe how hard it was to skate! One of my YW is an honest-to-goodness competitive skater, and she tried to teach us some tricks, with no luck from me. I could sort of skate backwards, and sort of stop when I tried to, and sort of do a small spin, resulting in a garbage looking spin. One of my other YW tried to do a trick and ended up on her bum. She was game enough to give a good pose:

We ended with some ice cream, and it definitely made me want to go skating sooner than 10 years, which is how long it had been last time!

Missed this Joker

I can't tell you how much I missed this joker while we were gone.

I'm so glad to see her and give her snugs. 

Last Day of Orlando

Today, we just had plans to chill. After a morning of packing up all of our suitcases, and playing with cute babies, we got going.

 We went to Disney Springs, which is basically Downtown Disney in Florida. It was hot as the sun again, but we ducked in and out of stores. I really enjoyed Cinderella's carriage here, and had to include.

 After we exhausted all of the stores we wanted to hit up here, we went to the Orlando Temple, and enjoyed a bit there.

Then it was time to head home. It was a great trip with family, and I enjoyed it so much.

Family Vacay Time

We spent the day in Sarasota, hanging with Husband's grandmother. We went to an Amish restaurant for dinner, which was just about the most delicious place I've ever been to. We took her dog on a walk that evening, and snapped a photo in the blinding and still really hot sun.

Even though we are having a great time, after 2 weeks of being away, I am ready to go home and be back in my own bed. Tomorrow we head home!
