DISNEYWORLD!!

The weekend after Kent and I got to Georgia, we went to the Walt Disney World resort for a few days! We stayed in the Disney Port Orleans Riverside resort- which was pretty nice! We also went miniature golfing to both of the Disney World courses- both of which were really fun, though my mini golfing skills are pretty lacking! AND, of course, we went to the Magic Kingdom for one magnificent day and rode every ride that we wanted to- including my favorite: Splash Mountain! We saw Captain Jack Sparrow, went to the crazy Tiki Room, tried on fun Disney hats, and got POURED on for a few hours! But that didn't ruin the day! We still had a great time being kids again!

Fairbanks, AK!

My Dad came to visit us for a weekend near the end of June (right before we moved)and took us to Fairbanks! The drive took many hours, but it was worth it! We saw spectacular scenery along the way- especially as we passed Denali National Park, wandered around the city of Talkeetna, rode a train to an old gold mine and learned the addictive and fun art of gold panning, stopped in at the North Pole and saw AMAZING, beautiful Christmas decorations (but we missed seeing Santa!), rode on a riverboat and saw an Iditarod sled dog team and visited a native Alaskan indian village, and had an old-fashioned picture taken of us in a park! It was a lot of fun and a nice farewell to the Last Frontier!
