My life.updates Summer 2017

Image
I have not posted a blog in awhile but as I was on my way to workout today I thought it was time.  First off, my Zumba instructor is the best and am so happy I get to take her classes.  I belong to Desert Fitness in Gilbert AZ and Diana A is amazing.  Run to take her class, she will make you smile, sweat and feel like your dying but always feel amazing after.   Anyway, I am happy to be back!  Its another time of transition for me.  Kids are back in school and I was lucky enough to spend the summer with them.  Don't get me wrong, life with a six and ten year old isn't always easy but when it gets overwhelming, hard, too much, I was remember to slow down and take a GIANT breath.  Our summer was filled with activities, a summer guest, trips to California (and a 17 day road trip to Montana/Wyoming.  I will write a separate blog about that trip 😊) but here a couple images from our San Diego, Huntington Beach/LA trip in mid June. And our favorite summer visitor. Cousins

Our Florida Vacation: Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Cocoa Beach & Zip Lining at Gatorland

Image
We took a family vacation last week to Florida.  We spent 2 days at Magic Kingdom, 1 at Epcot,  2 at Cocoa Beach and 1 day zip lining.  Yes even Maya got in on the action.    It was such a fun and exhausting time.  We went to Disneyland last year during the same time (ie Fall Break at my son's school). Next time we are taking the time to attend the Halloween party.  After speaking to many people apparently it is a must do.  One of the big differences this time is we put a big focus on meeting the characters.  My daughter loved meeting them.  I lost count but I think we meet around 20 different ones (small sampling below).    I need a specific call out for the zip lining .  It was an activity my hubby planned and it was one of my favorite parts.  We had zip lined once before in Belize over the rain forest.  This was a completely different experience since we had our 2 and 6 year olds along for the fun. Anyway, Enjoy the photos.... This is the first picture we took at Ma
