Don't Step in a Poodle

I don't remember if I mentioned that on June 10th, on Michael's sweet way home from buying 25 blown up balloons to put around the house for my birthday (I wouldn't let him pop the big cupcake shaped one that is currently floating next to me), without noticing, his phone fell out of the pouch clipped on his belt and landed in a puddle outside. He didn't find it until 30 minutes later and even after drying, it wouldn't turn on. It has been raining so much lately, but it is hurricane season.. So the next day he bought an iPhone. Here are Michael's Instagram pictures that I have been meaning to post:


*please click the photos for larger versions! =)
The first four pictures are from when we went to the new mini golf course at CityWalk/ Universal on my birthday (two weeks ago)! We did the "Alien Invasion" half. There was a haunted house one too, but I told Michael I would prefer to do that one during the day. The fourth row is showing off the current project Michael is working on, which is related to the bottom left picture from Thursday last week. We were in Good Will trying to find a female version of the Penguin outfit for me. (From "Batman Returns", 1992.) Then tonight we had dinner again at Bob's Potatoes.

25 Candles

Such a shame that my last two posts have been added one week late. But as always, better late than never. I wanted to post a couple pictures of my "cake" for my 25th birthday - I can feel the wrinkles forming already! We had dinner at the Cheesecake Factory. I don't think I've ever had a bad slice of cheesecake. This one is Oreo, but we got a slice of Snickers too - both were delicious. This is definitely something I would splurge calories for to try more often. The carrot cake cheesecake sounded good too, but most of the time I'm in a chocolate mood, especially at night.

Birthday Princess

Yesterday was Jordyn's 4th birthday. How precious. And to celebrate ~ she went with Jessica, Jonathan and James to Disney! They got to their resort today around 2:00pm and with Jessica's very helpful landmark clues, I was able to find my way to where they were staying. The five of us took a bus to the front of Magic Kingdom, but walked ahead to the monorail. We stopped at the Polynesian Resort where we followed the pool and beach area to the boat dock. For whatever reason, today Jordyn enjoyed a game of "don't look at Rachel's camera" so I was lucky to get this beautiful shot before we departed on the boat. I liked holding her tiny hand and we bonded over being hungry and thirsty, so together we stopped at each water fountain and shared a pack of peanut butter crackers that I had. I pointed out other little princesses her age who had glittery Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty dresses on. Jordyn is most excited to meet Belle and Rapunzel, so I look forward to seeing their family photos in a few days! It was nice getting to spend time with them again. I don't think I had seen Jonathan in a year, since the wedding. Jessica said we are getting spoiled because we have seen each other twice in two months. I'm hoping we can make that a habit. Maybe I can make a trip up to Atlanta in June?!
