Happy Fourth of July!

Although it's pretty hot in Florida in July, we braved the weather and headed to Disney as our family-only time this holiday weekend.  The boys were really excited since we hadn't been in a month.  I know, I know - we're totally spoiled.  They await their beloved monorail at Epcot.

We put this one in for Pop-Pop Williams - that's the Marriott Surf watch visor that Micah is sporting on the train around the Magic Kingdom.

We found the jumping fountains at Epcot.  Water just jumps from spot to spot in this one garden and one little boy in particular thought it was hysterical!

Here they are watching it; you can see the water on the left side of the picture.  Pretty cool, huh?

Seems like a perfect time to dance and spin and twirl and scream!

In honor of "Cars 2", which Micah has already seen twice (but it was his first movie in the theater so it's not as bad as it sounds!), Epcot did a topiary with the two main characters - Lightning McQueen and Mater.  This was the best picture we could get with the boys in front of it.

When we ask Liam to say "cheese", he always obliges.  If you ask him a few times because you haven't quite gotten the picture you want, he seems to think that means he's not close enough to the camera so he does what you see in the picture below.  I've deleted most of these for obvious reasons, but check out the color of his eyes in this picture, which doesn't even do them justice.  This kid has beautiful light green eyes.  He's going to be a real ladies' man one day with those!

I asked Tim to take a picture of this because I just thought the contrast of the fire and the sky and the horizon and the moon and the water was really beautiful.  Even Disney can be pretty!

And this is what we're taking to a cookout today.  A slight twist on the usual dessert fruit pizza because this one has a brownie crust.  And it's gluten free!

Go ahead - dig in!!
