I LOVE to see the temple!

Not only did we get to see Downtown Disney, Sea World, and Sea World's new water park while were in Orlando, but most importantly we went to the temple!!! On July 31, 2008 Kent and I were both able to receive our endowments AND be sealed for time and all eternity in the Orlando temple. Our Bishop and his wife got up insanely early in the morning to be there with us, which Kent and I are so grateful for. It was a beautiful, unique, overwhelming, and wonderful experience for both of us! We were sorry that we couldn't have any of our family and friends there with us, but we knew this needed to be happen as soon as possible. We can't WAIT to go again and again and continue to learn and grow!


Here we are right after we were all done! Our faces were pink from a mild sunburn, but our spirits definitely burned the most of all.


I am SO GLAD and GRATEFUL that we were finally able to go to the temple!


This was anything BUT a gloomy day, even though it looks that way! (I love rhyme!)


Our first time through the temple was a beautiful experience that neither of us will ever forget.


Isn't this temple exquisite? Even in the rain....




Isn't that a lovely sight?


The Orlando Florida temple as you are approaching it.

Sea World is even better than I remember it being when I was a kid.....


It is cute watching the dolphins interact with us mere humans. :)


Duh nuh. Duh nuh. Duh nuh. Duh nuh......



That wee lil' baby sea lion is one of the cutest things I have EVER seen!


The finale of the Clyde and Seemore pirate show! Hooray!


Come on Captain! Breathe! Breathe! (Yum yum!)


Do you see what I see Seemore?!


This one of the best moments of the show! Seemore the sea lion roared in his Captain's ear! Arrrr!


This pirate mime was VERY funny! He poked fun at all the people that walked by him to find seats for the sea lion show.





I HAD to post this picture because it is Kent's favorite! Isn't that bird both disgusting AND hilarious?

Downtown Disney in Orlando


A Transformer made ENTIRELY of Legos! I KNOW our nephews would've loved this!


Watch for this giant Stitch! He is out to SOAK you! Yikes!



I dressed up my very own My Little Pony! Isn't she a cutie? Too bad she was expensive....


Bibbidy Bobbidy Boo!!


Yo Ho Yo Ho- a pirate's life for Kent!


Both of these princesses have found their prince charmings!



This picture is for all of my brothers, who LOVE legos and Star Wars both!


They had an awesome Lego store in Downtown Disney! It made Kent and I miss being kids.


Our Cone-headed beastie, prim and proper Hermione, Coney taking a nap with me, and a hilarious video of Merlin being his looney self!

Merlin has this horrible habit of nibbling on himself, so this last time he did we bought him an Elizabethean collar/cone to prevent him from doing further damage while his leg healed. It was SO FUNNY and pathetic to watch him with the cone on for about a week. He was SO mopey, depressed, and attention hungry, so we gave him LOTS of love! He gave it back to, as you can see from his nap pictures with me! Now that his leg is healed and he doesn't have his cone on anymore he is back to his mischievious self and only gives love when he wants to! I kind of miss that cone....














One night Merlin played for about 30 minutes straight with one of his toys, dragging it around, chewing on it, attacking it, and I am sorry to say, perhaps mounting it! Yikes! It was one of the funniest things he has ever done! (note: the video is kind of long, so you don't have to watch the last third of it unless you want to!)
