ORLANDO

We spent a week in Orlando at the beginning of the month and it was a wonderful vacation! Hopefully we go back again one day. I'm so happy that my fear of flying with the kids for longer than 2 hours is gone, because I was seriously dreading it! It wasn't near as bad as I thought it was going to be, Braxton pretty much napped for most of the flight and Chase watched a movie and was such a good boy!

Brian had a conference to attend for the first few days, so me and the boys had fun wandering around Universal City Walk and playing at the pool.






The boys were exhausted from swimming and I snapped this shot of Braxton lounging on the bed. He puts his hands behind his head all the time while relaxing, it is so funny!


On the ferry boat...






At Universal Studios, the Cat in the Hat was the only character that Chase agreed to take a picture with. After we went on the Cat in the Hat ride, Chase's response was "well, that was weird..." hahaa!!







Disney World Magic Kingdom:

We did take a classic picture in front of the castle, but we asked the wrong stranger to take our photo because it turned out pretty bad! I'm just gonna leave that one out. :)


Whenever Brax was sick of the stroller, he held on and walked next to it thinking that he was helping Brian.


On Dumbo the flying elephant...




Braxton must have known that It's a Small World was going to be creepy...




Braxton's expressions make me laugh!


Excited to see Buzz!


Zurg!





Downtown Disney:


Chase got to help build this Lego picture of Woody and was pretty excited, just like he was to help with the Buzz Lightyear Lego sculpture.


He even got a certificate to show that he helped with the official Lego Buzz project. (and yes, a Lego Master Model Builder is a real job I guess...)







Beach Day!






Chase found sea shells with me to decorate his castle with.



One more photo of Brax lounging because I love it so much!


A good trip!!

HALLOWEEN!

Chase and Braxton had a Halloween/Birthday party for their cousin Hannah and went trick or treating afterwards.


Cutest pirate ever!


Cutest monkey too!


Chase's pirate face!

WHEELER FARM:

We took the boys to Wheeler Farm and had a great time. They loved seeing the animals, picking out their own pumpkins to take home, getting lost in the hay maze, and going on the tractor ride!














Chase held Braxton's leg during the bumpy tractor ride so that he wouldn't fall off the bench. So sweet!


I had to put this photo up because it makes me laugh...that lady was staring at Brian like that the whole time......

PARK CITY:

We went up to Park City back in October when Brian's brother Bradley was in town. I happened to take some cute photos of the boys, so I thought I would go ahead and post them.






Brian won, but to be fair, Bradley did fly off the slide!


Chase came off of the Alpine Coaster with a straight face and huge eyes, I think it scared him a little bit...






Staring contest...


A very scenic airplane ride!

Wow, a new post!

So I figured it was about time I post some photos, so here are some pictures of our Las Vegas trip. The boys were great during the drive...thanks Toy Story and nap-time!

Oh wait, check out this picture of poor Braxton! His face is all healed now, but looking at this makes me sad. He fell outside on the concrete patio and got all scraped up. That's what happens when Mom is gone and Dad is left in charge...



Chase and Braxton playing in the hotel room.


Chase and Brax LOVED the swimming pool so we spent alot of time there.


Brax being a dare devil.


Chase made some friends at the pool and they played for a couple of days together. Chase said he wants to take swimming lessons in the Summer so he can swim like them.






Me and my boys at the hotel


We didn't hang out on the strip much, we liked this Town Square shopping area because it had so many fun things for the kids to do, and some of my favorite places to shop...H&M and Sephora



The boys had so much fun putting on shows for us at this little stage in the play area.


ummm, I love this photo! We were applauding for him and he loved it!


Brax loves the water. Why is he wearing a shirt you may ask...It was SO burning hot and Brax is my little pale baby!





Lost in the maze


Brax wanting more chocolate gelato






We went to a brazilian steakhouse and Brian was so proud of his carniverous son feasting on filet mignon.


Couldn't leave without going to Circus Circus to see a circus show and play on some rides.

Waiting for the trapeze show to start.


Brax is too cute!


Nope, they didn't win...








Chase and Spongebob!


Chase liked the scary pirate and still wants to be a pirate for Halloween.
