First of all I have to say that I have A TON of updating to do and posting. I plan on doing that when I get back but right now WE ARE IN FLORIDA and having the time of our life!! I am going to try to post a little while we are here and then add pictures when we get to Omaha.
Kyle, Jantsen, Kambryn and I left on Monday and met up with Kyle's family here in Orlando. We are staying in a nice 3 bedroom condo and we bought some 7 day hopper tickets to all the fun parks down here. We have a week packed with a ton of activities and rides and fireworks and eating and playing. Oh we are so excited! Yesterday after we all slept in from a long day of traveling on Monday. While some of us went and got groceries the others stayed at played out the fun pool here at our condo.
By noon we were all itching to get to one of the parks. We loaded up our awesome minivan with 2 babies, Jantsen, and 6 adults and headed to Epcot. The weather was nice and hot but not too humid and the rides were so much fun and Jantsen loved it. Some of the fun rides we went on were Nascar-test-car, Finding Nemo, Soaring (simulation of hang gliding), and other little shows and rides. Jantsen was able to go on all the rides except for a NASA space training simulation. That ride was AWESOME!!! Oh man Kara, Kristen and I had a great time in space! haha! After we went on the Soaring Ride, Jantsen and I were walking out and I said, "Was that ride way fun?" His response, "Yeah that was Super way fun!!" He is at such a fun age and loving it all. And good thing he is barely above the 40 in mark, he can go on almost all the rides. The day ended with beautiful firework show in the middle of the park. Jantsen loves fireworks, finally, but Kambryn on the other hand wasn't a big fan. The best way to describe her feelings about fireworks is she hated them, mainly the loud Boom but was so intrigued by the lights and the color that she couldn't take her eyes off of them although she screamed and death-griped my neck, the whole time. The kids were spent and went to bed pretty quick when we got home. We are ready for another fun filled day at The MAGIC KINGDOM. Mickey here we come!!
I talked to Dustin last night after he was set apart as an Elder. He leaves into the MTC today at noon, spends 8 weeks in Provo and then heads out as a missionary to the people in Rosario Argentina. Dustin is just a great person and the best example to my family. Funny little story, first of all Dustin took Jantsen, Kambryn, and I to the airport to go back to Omaha a few weeks ago and had to say goodbye to us, then he took James and Cami and Parker to fly to Wisconsin and already said goodbye to them, and then finally took Curtis to the airport on last Sunday to fly out to Fiji and had to say goodbye to him. (He had to say goodbye to Natalie a few weeks ago already too) So Dustin, the Missionary, had to take all his family to the airport and say goodbye, when usually it is the family taking the missionary to the airport and saying goodbye to him. But we are going to miss Dustin so much. I can't wait for Christmas time and to be able to talk to him. The count down starts already!! Good luck Dustin and be safe and take care!!! LOVE YOU BROTHER!!!

What a fun vacation! i love that jantsen has such a little mind of his own. How darling! I can't wait to see the pictures!
What a fun trip! It is so fun to take kids places and see how much they love everything. It gives you a whole new perspective on things. Looking forward to seeing all of the pictures!
I didn't even know you were going to FLORIDA!! I am soooo jealous. Did I tell you my dad is moving there? Give a hug to all the princesses for Kylee!!!
Sounds like you guys are having a blast. Aren't they at such a fun age to do things like this? That is funny that Kambryn doesn't like the fire works...Sadie was way scared of them when she was that age, she actually still hates the loud boom, she'll cover her ears. Have so much fun in Florida, can't wait to see pictures!
I tell you, you've got the life! Fun things all over the place!
Wow! You guys have been soooo busy!! You have been in Utah forever and now Florida! You guys are quite the travelers!:) I can't wait to see pictures of all of your fun trips! Have fun in Florida!!
I'm so glad you had so much fun. I can't wait to see pics of it all. And the post about the prayer had me laughing so hard... I even shared it with my mom- too sweet! Glad your back to whip us into shape:)
I am jealous you guys got to go to Flordia. Can't wait to see the pictures.
Jeff and I hated the space ride at Epcot!! That is soo funny. It made Jeff way sick! The lady next to me totally threw up. it's never a good sign when the ride has doggy bags... Sounds like you guys are going to have a great trip! Go Bruins!!
Hey, I hope you guys are feeling better!

So I got into a new program that does the webcam and it seems easier (at least I think so and it moves faster too)its called Skype so I need to tell you about it and you can download and we'll let Jansten and Parker talk to each other! talk to ya soon.
