FHE @ Silver Lake...and a New Friend

ALL summer long Tommy has talked about heading up to Silver Lake to walk around and enjoy the outdoors. Which I find ironic because Tommy is a city slicker who hates camping in the mountains. But, he does enjoy being in the mountains and how amazingly close they are to us. He would just rather visit them and then sleep in his own bed.
So, for our little Family Home Evening we took a walk around Silver Lake. It was SO pretty and just what I needed to get out of the house after a long day's work.



Tommy and I both just were loving the scenery and the smell and being outside, when we ran into a new friend. MR. MOOSE.


The Moose really was so close that I could have reached out and touched it...if I had wanted to end my life of course.  Tommy kept wanting to take more and more pics, but I was a little nervous being around a large wild animal and being pregnant and all.

Needless to say it was a great night and so fun to spend some time with Tommy Boy. We really should do stuff like this more often because we are fortunate to live just minutes away from activities just like this.


P.S. We finished the night with dinner at Porcupine Grill. Can I just say that HANDS DOWN they have the BEST fish and chips known to man. Mmm.... Craving them right now.

Walt Disney World...BABYMOON!!!

I thought that before the baby actually comes I should blog about the BabyMoon Tommy and I took with the Handley's, as one last BIG TRIP before our sweet baby comes and changes our traveling for awhile.

We were lucky enough to be invited by the Handley's to join them on their family trip to Walt Disney World. They were going because Boston was: A. One of 96 lacrosse athletes in the Nation asked to come and play in the All-American Showcase and B. Because Boston was leaving for his mission shortly after.

We had such a GREAT TIME despite the HOT HOT weather and HUMIDITY that made this pregnant girl feel like she was going through early menopause.

EPCOT:






All-American Lacrosse Games:


Disney's Hollywood Studios:





 Magic Kingdom:



Other Pics:
 We ate at Buffalo Wild Wings a FEW times...so so good.
 Eating and Epcot...Again. And yes I look 9 months pregnant in this picture.
 A Big shout out to this wonderful invention that saved my life from the Heat of Summer in Florida!

Such a great trip and with great company! We can't wait to take our own family there one day...that is a LONG TIME from now.
