Disney Day 2: Animal Kingdom

The Lion King Show, Birds of Wonder, Dinosaurs, a Safari, fanTAStic fruit, and a gorgeous peaceful atmosphere among other things made for an amazing day!!

Katie adores Uncle Jonny. :-) This was taken right before he hit me in the face. hahaha It was an accident, though, so I'll forgive him. We're waiting for the dinosaur ride. (Logan earned a dinosaur to take home because he was so brave on this ride!....I honestly didn't remember it being that scary.)
My brave men.

Can you see the red shirt? That's my honey!! Look closely and you can see Dad and Jonny too! James even convinced ME to go on this one... I was pretty convinced I'd be dead if I rode it, and said goodbye to each of my kids. Luckily, I didn't die- SHOCKING (or rather NOT shocking...thank you Electra) I know. Anyway, it was awesome, and I felt VERY cool having done it. It took me back to the good old days when I went on roller coasters all the time. I wouldn't have even thought to go had my bro Alex not said he went on stuff like that all the time...crazy kid.
Logan tried on Papa's hat...a souveniere he's had almost as long as his Maid of the Mist poncho, but way cooler! :-) (no idea why this caption looks like a link to something...)
Tyler tried on Papa's Indiana Jones hat, too- he pretty much does everything his brother does. ;-)

Katie just tried to keep cool...the soaker fan sure helped!

You can imagine our surprise when we ran into James' old roommate Brian and his wife Jessica! What a treat! It was so fun to see them and their beautiful family! This pic was taken right around the time that the poor lizard limped away to safety...it's a horrible story I will save for another time.

Here's Logan in 'Africa' playing an instrument.


Tyler's playing one as well! It was very cool.The back of the bus is always the coolest. Ask Logan. He knows all about what's cool now that he's gone to school.
This is his cool face.

And Tyler...you guessed it! Copying Logan. :-) So much energy at the end of the day...how do they do it?!
