Disney World!!!!




Disney world is AMAZING!! No wonder they say that it is the happiest place on earth. We went to the Pirate and Princess Party from 5 p.m. to 12:00 p.m. It was FABULOUS!! THere were no lines for any of the rides, but that might have been due to the rain, lol, and there was a parade, and fabulous fire works. Wow!! WE went to the magic kingdom, but I am sooooo going back there someday. It is beautiful. Maybe for my honey moon, lol. wow. If you haven't been to disney world, you HAVE to go. IT is expensive, but it is sooooo worth it!!!

Skiing is FABULOUS!!!

Skiing is a sport that requires grace, elegance, and balance. One pictures skiers gracefully gliding down picturesque slopes smiling and enjoying the sensation of flying. Unfortunately, my skiing experience is nothing like that. First of all, we missed ski school, so we had two hours till the next one, not to mention the freezing rain!! Anyway, I couldn't for the life of me, figure out how come my ski wouldn't go on, until someone told me it was it was upside down, which will make a difference. Finally, skis on I try to ski down to the ski lift. I practically flew down and counldn't stop for the life of me, untill I fell on my butt and then couldn't get up. After much assistance from Jon, I got up took off the skis, and waited in the ski lodge for ski school. Well, after ski school, during which I nearly skied into a TREE, and fell off the ski lift (talk about embarrassing!!) while getting off, and being called a SOCIAL SKIER by the grumpy ski instructor, I felt ready to brave the slopes. I fell off the ski lift once more, and was knocked over by the ski lift when I was jumping up and down in excitement after not having fallen off the ski lift. Then the actual skiing part was interesting. I would always start off well, get too much speed, and then end up on my butt with one eg going each direction so that I couldn't get up without taking off my skis. Thanks to Mrs. Carlson, our chap, I finally learned to snowplow, and skied down two slopes without falling down again!!! Before that, if you had been watching, this girl looking like a black poofy marshmallow in her ski gear (moi) would start down the slope, start screaming when she realized she would fall down, fall on her butt, slide down the rest of the slope, struggle in the snow for a while to get up while yelling "I'm so sick of falling down!!!" and then finally get up and go again. AFter lunch I was so tired that I stayed in the lodge for a while, but it got really foggy so I stayed awhile more and my friends and I got together to pray for safety for those who were still out on the slopes. About an hour later, Jon, the sleeping one, lol, came back. He had skiied right off the slope, "due to fog", and had skiied into 3 or 4 trees. He could have died. But God protected him. And more amazing, it all happened while we were praying for safety. Isn't God good? Anyway, despite all of the mishaps that occured to me, I would love to go skiing anytime again!! It is soooo amazing!!! Skiing is FABULOUS!!

Jon and Prunelle Arrive






Jon and Prune arrived February 16 and were able to stay till March 8. It was so much fun. I was a little sad that I was not able to spend more time with them because I was busy with school, and work, and skiing, but it was a lot of fun. There are going to be a lot of posts about all the stuff that we did we them, and it was so much fun!!! And while I wait for the photos to keep uploading I will keep rambling on and on and on about various unimportant stuff. There they are!!

THIS IS SO CUTE
