Kyle & Alex's Sealing

Kyle and Alex were sealed for time and all eternity in the Washington DC Temple on October 18, 2012.  Our dear friends, Andy and Rebecca, met us there and attended the sealing.  It was such a beautiful and sacred day!

Last Day at Disney

No photos from the last day at Disney...we went to Epcot and visited Canada, Norway, and Mexico.  And ate some more yummy stuff  - like filet mignon with wild mushroom sauce in Canada!  After Epcot, we went back to the resort and used up the rest of our Disney Dining Plan points (the Dining Plan is such a great deal!!) and then hit the road.  We were all tired....I ended up driving the last couple of hours and it was so hard to stay awake!  Especially with everyone else sleeping!

On Monday, it rained really hard, so no game and no practice :)  It was nice just to rest (and unpack).  Tuesday we had a game that we lost...Wednesday we had a game that we won! 

Family Disney Trip Day 4

On Saturday, we went to Hollywood Studios.  After Kirsten being incredibly scared of the Stitch ride/attraction at Magic Kingdom, I figured I was going to get out of riding the Rockn' Roller Coaster and Tower of Terror.  No such luck!  She rode both of them and loved them!  I had a conversation on the elevator at the hotel later:

Me: Kirsten, how come you were so scared of Stitch, but you could ride the roller coaster and tower of terror? 

Kirsten: I know, right? 

She thought for a minute and then said "Stitch has too many arms.  It's disturbing."

Later that night, we went back to the Magic Kingdom for the classic Electric Main Street Parade.  I remember some of it from when I went with my grandparents when I was 4 years old! 

Of course, I ABSOLUTELY adore the Halloween decorations!!

Family Disney Trip Day 3

Animal Kingdom!  We saw the Festival of the Lion King (always an amazing show!) and went on Expedition Everest 2 times! Then we headed back over to Epcot to see Illuminations and enjoy some more yummy food! (Hayleigh had bratwurst - none of us were surprised!)

Family Disney Trip Day 2

On Thursday, Brandee and Scott arrived from Utah! We spent the day at the Magic Kingdom and went to Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party. 

Family Disney Trip Day 1!

Ethan and Dallin in England

Enjoying Fish and Chips

Dallin

We left on Wednesday morning and arrived at the Happiest Place on Earth Wednesday afternoon.  On the way down, we got to around Troutman (about 15 minutes south of our place!) and Kirsten asked if we were almost there!  Silly Girl!  We checked into the hotel and went straight to Epcot, staying until after 11 PM.  It was hot in Florida - geez, how to people live there??  We had a great time at Epcot though, and enjoyed some yummy foods from different countries.  Hayleigh LOVED the bratwurst from Somerfest in Germany and Kirsten couldn't get enough of the chicken wraps from Morocco.

Baby Emmy!

Congratulations to Tyler and Caitlin!  Baby Emmy arrived on October 1st, 2012 and is as pretty and perfect as can be!

Baby Shower

(yes, the baby is here - she was born October 1st - and we are so excited!)

Since some people didn't want to know what gender the baby was, I didn't post the baby shower photos.  The shower was a lot of fun and so many friends and family members attended!
