Karate and cake

James (Junior) had a birthday party where he takes karate. It was a very cool party. Karate and cake, and pizza what more could a kid ask for! The girls had a blast.

Disney last week

Jessica (Poage) Thorne, one of my best friends from my childhood, let me know last week that she had free tickets for Disney if we wanted to go! How could we turn that down? So we packed up and headed to Orlando for a night. Unfortunately Jessica had car trouble on the way in and they had to take care of things on Friday while we were at Magic Kingdom without them :(. We decided to just stay until about 7 so we could drive back home that night. We had a blast. We saw the the fairies (Tinerbell & co.), Minnie and Mickey, and some great rides. We couldn't do much more than that because of the heat and being outnumbered by kids. It was so hot and Blake was just not happy in line unless he was running way ahead of us. We love Disney though and what a great opportunity to take our whole family for free!

Meeting TinkerbellKourtney thinks it is great when people ask if the girls are twins (typically when they are sitting down and dressed alike). They do look alike here!

Enjoying our beautiful kids and so in love!

McKenna pretending to be Minnie. See how her mouth is slightly open just like Minnie's always is? LOL!

Blake hooked Daddy up with some stickers while they waited for us in the shade

Kourtney drew pictures of Mickey and Minnie to give to them. It was the highlight of the day. Mickey and Minnie loved the pictures and everyone in the room oohed and ahhed. We also got autographs in Kourtney's diary which was a first for us.

In Minnie's house
ZZZzzzzzzz

The first two rides we took Blake on was Pirates and the Haunted Mansion. BIG mistake. He was terrified all day after that whenever it looked like we were approaching a ride. Thing is he did both rides just fine a few months ago!

In the Hall of Presidents literally IN the hall because Blake couldn't sit still. I was disappointed because it was recently remodeled and included a new President.

We had fun though!

Elmo elmo elmo

The obsession continues. We did purchase a smaller more cuddly Elmo for sleeping and taking places. I think he may have been left at the church last night after life group but Blake is not asking for him. He is just constantly asking for Elmo to be playing on the tv. We have been able to convince him that Veggie Tales and Praise Baby are acceptable things to watch and he also asks for them to be played. I may be making another Elmo cake sometime soon. I better ask Danielle to borrow her cake pan again!

First Johnson loose tooth

and it didn't last for long. On Sunday while eating lunch at Nana's house Kourtney discovered that her tooth was loose. She has been waiting for this to happen and talking about it for AT LEAST a year. So she was thrilled. She wanted to immediately start calling her relatives and school friends. By Sunday night she wanted it out. I thought it could wiggle around for at least a week. However Kourtney and her adventurous dad thought they should attach a string to it at 9:30pm on Sunday night and yank it out. An hour later, some blood and tears and she was proudly holding her tooth. I know she was motivated by dollar signs. She also offered to mail the tooth to her Grammy so she could put it under the pillow there and see if any money appeared. However, ask her who the tooth fairy is and she will tell you it is ME. I want the credit for giving the mula. The next morning Travis let Kourtney know that we beat the tooth fairy up while she was in her bedroom and got her tooth back. I think Kourtney believes us.
