Disney World!

Early October we went to Disney World! Yahoo ya yippee! (as Bridger would say)...Here's the whole Weight clan and really what fun memories we made there! Thanks so much Steve and Debbie!
At Magic Kingdom! So fun!
Dumbo ride

Bridger LOVED all the rides that he was able to go on and would always want to go again...here he is saying "one more time?"
Teacups!

It's a small world! Bridger and Mason both loved this one...just look at his face; so much joy!

Magic Carpet ride
We went to Epcott another day which was fun but not so fun for the boys so we only stayed for a few hours and then back to the hotel to swim (which the boys absolutely loved!)

All the cousins! Bridger, Mason, Tommy, and Rex!

We tried to keep the boys in the stroller while just walking around because it was so hot and humid and we wanted them to stay cool. They didn't love being in there so much, but it was good to have it for a place to rest (and sometimes even nap...which was pretty rare :)...
all tuckered out
To have a break from the stroller, the boys would get rides from Daddy and Grandpa, or walk themselves...yep we were those people with the kid leashes...they were awesome! :)
Honey I shrunk the kids playground
star wars jedis! Mason is so tough guy here I love it!

My absolutely favorite thing about the whole trip was how cute the boys were with all the Disney characters! They loved seeing them...Mason would giggle excitedly and just bury his head in them and cuddle with them. Bridger was so cute too and would give hugs and kisses and then turn and smile for us (he knew the drill haha). Lots of pics below of them with characters, but it was so cute!
Captain America!
Minnie Mouse
Donald Duck
Minnie and Mickey Mouse!!!
Spiderman!
Army guy from Toy Story :)
Dr. Seuss land! All the boys with Cat in the Hat!
With their birthday party theme of Thing 1 Thing 2, these boys really knew about these guys and were so excited about them. It was adorable!

...and speaking of...this is when we announced to Tay's fam about our "future thing" on its way!
We told them about the baby by getting the boys mickey mouse hats and an extra one for baby! :)

All the cousins again...Bridger, Tommy, Mason, and Rex
They loved the Toy Story rides...locked up with Zurg!
Hogwarts here we come! Another highlight of the experience
Hogwarts Express...notice the boys both holding their water bottle fans haha
...and yep the butterbeer was pretty delicious!

Another ride that Bridger loved so much! 
...I think you can tell from his face that Grandpa really loved it too :)

on our long flight home...taking our fun memories with us!

Farming Fun

Also while up in Washington with Christine and Garrett, we had a lot of fun seeing his relatives' farm. The boys loved interacting with all of the animals and all of the open space to run around. It was so much fun for all of us!
Bridger tried holding it himself at first...
So cute...

kisses...haha don't worry, he actually never touched it
how perfect is this picture ;)
Bridger feeding the goats. So fun!
Tough guy
Going on four wheelers! Wahoo! (my foot still hurt from my little parasailing accident so this was perfect for me to drive the boys around).

and to top it off...pony rides! Bridger felt like a real cowboy and loved every minute of it!

Mason was once again just a tough guy of course
water fun
They had a little lake on their farm as well with canoe rides and water slides!


We were trying to get the boys together for a picture...Bridger was trying to help too :)

I love Mason's face here...scared haha
so cute!

Parasailing in Washington

In the early fall we went to Washington with Christine and Garrett to visit some of his family up there. One of his uncles had a home on Moses lake and we were able to go parasailing! Here are some pics from our adventure...

getting all ready to go
the boys were a little concerned for us
Tay taking off...

the rope was really long so it was awesome to be up so high


Here is attempt number one for me...the sail didn't fill with air so I got dragged the first time...yep ouch...I was ok though in the end and so glad I tried again because when I got up the second time, it was so beautiful up there!



look ma no hands!



Captain Moroni

For family night a couple of months ago, we told the boys the story of Captain Moroni and then we had them make their own title of liberty flags. Helmets were a must have of course too haha.
Hoisting the title of liberty
Marching up and down the hallway, to rally the people of course
...and Mason also hoisting the title of liberty? haha

Getting Messy

We have been having a lot of fun lately trying some new experiments: Mess, mess, and more mess! The boys of course love playing with all sorts of goopy, gooey stuff and it's fun for me to watch. I love it too because it's so fun to watch them play with it and then I just hose them off afterwards in the bath :)
"ooblik"  a corn starch mixture :)
Shaving cream
now this one wasn't sanctioned by me of course...thankfully I caught it quick enough that it only was on his feet and a little on his hands...fyi: permanent marker comes out pretty good if you wash it off right away with lots of soap and some scrubbing
look at that innocent face haha
and of course pretty much every meal is a fun surprise...
