Day Fifty Nine. Friday July 9th.
Today I drove 7hours to meet my husband in Jacksonville FL, he took over and we drove 3 more to Orlando where we stayed at Walt Disney World Resort! It was simply amazing. RIP Walt Disney, you truly changed the world in a magical way. This was taken at Magic Kingdom.
Day Sixty. Saturday July 10th.
Today we went to Disney World's Animal kingdom and it was AMAZING!! They have such a great animal reserve there. I am against Zoo's completely but Animal reserves are a wonderful happy place for endangered and rare non-native animals can live comfortable lives. This picture was taken on the Safari!
Jelly Fish
Day Sixty one. Sunday July 11th.
Today we went to Disney world's Epcot Center where they have an aquarium and alot of futuristic rides. Jelly fish have always amazed me because they dont have any organs or a brain. They are purely a nervous system. Thats IT! I got stung by one when I was a little girl while I was surfing, it temporarily paralyzed my leg but the lifegaurd fixed me up and I had a cool story afterwards :)

Day Sixty Two. Monday July 12th.
Today we slept for most of the day, recovering from disney world. My feet are blistered from walking all over all 4 of disney world's amusement parks! But it was so worth it. We got up in the late afternoon and went exploring at the outlet malls. We went to COACH and my husband said "You already have two of these ugly things lets get out of here" haha so we went to Dooney and Bourke and he picked me out a purse and wallet. Hes amazing! And has such great taste! lol. DB has such better quality purses than coach does. And I love the smell of the leather. ♥
Day Sixty Three. Tuesday July 13th.
Today we surfed allllll day! We got a little burnt but we went and rented some longboards and had a great time. I took a break to take some pictures (of course) but I am SO sore. Unfortunately they pulled an elderly man out of the water today and he didnt make it :( may he rest in peace.
Red Eyed Tree Frog
Day Sixty Four. Wednesday July 14th
Today it was stormy out, too stormy to go surfing so we hung out in our hotel and watched movies. It was pouring rain outside and there was a patch of rainforest behind our hotel so it brought out all the frogs. This little guy was hanging out on the hotel's back door. Hes so cute!

Day Sixty Six. Friday July 16th.
Today we met up with some of Matthew's co-worker army guys and surfed. Since I grew up in Hawaii I Know a thing or two about surfing, It was fun being this tiny girl teaching these big tough special forces guys some basics haha. The waves were perfect! I cheated a little on this one because I was so occupied with surfing that I didnt take any pics, but this was taken the day before at the same beach. I like fences :) Oh and we had THEE WORST surf-rash afterwards ouch!

Tampa Florida.
Day Sixty Eight. Sunday July 18th.
Today we drove down to Tampa, we got there in the late afternoon so we decided to go explore the town. We found an AWESOME place called channelside just off of Tampa Bay where we found a super NICE bowling alley/dance club/restaurant/bar where a ton of famous people like Jordan Sparks, Eva Longoria, N*sync haha, Martina McBride etc. It was so much fun! That drink was big enough to fit 4.5 regular drinks in it. The first game we played I beat Matthew by ONE point hah our score was 105 to 106!

Busch Gardens.
Day Sixty Nine. Monday July 19th.
Today we went to Busch Gardens and had a blast! We rode all the big roller coasters including Sheikra which had a 90 degree 200 foot drop! So much fun, we rode that one a couple times. I took this picture as we were leaving the park because I couldnt carry my camera with me on account of the roller coasters and there are a few rides that we got soaked on.

Day Seventy. Tuesday July 20th.
We are exausted from Busch Gardens, we are totally theme-parked-out after going to Disney World and conquering all 4 of the theme parks they have there and then going to Busch making that 5 theme parks in 2 weeks! We chilled out in our hotel, had some drinks together, and watched Bounty Hunter and Cop Out both really funny. We took a trip to a Liquor store that is literally like a Mall for alcohol because they have everything you could imagine and more, and its HUGE so I had to take my camera, I like this label I just think its cool :)

Mission Accomplished.
Day Seventy Three. Friday July 23rd.
Today Matthew had the day off but we had to go to post to a Special Forces Family Event and listen to the Commander speak. After that I went into work to fill out some paperwork to become an Official Buckle Employee :) I got home and made my husband a bet, mowed the entire lawn by myself! It took me 2.5 hours but it was a damn good workout and I proved my husband wrong and he had to put away 10 loads of laundry, mop the floors, scrub the house, shampoo the carpets, and cook dinner. We are very competitive around here haha.
