For Gina :)

A friend requested us take the gratuitous photo of Mickey ears... Here it is!

Fireworks!


These aren't the greatest photos but it was beautiful!!

Forgot!

In front of the restaurant, there are these paw prints. For those Lady and the Tramp aficionados out there, the pair made these in the movie in wet cement when they were on their "date." Love it!

Looking a little tired...


Tony's is in the Magic Kingdom-- it's the Italian restaurant in the Lady and the Tramp movie :) Since it was our wedding cake topper and first date, we told the waitress and she surprised us with Lady and the Tramp stuffed animals, from "Tony!" So much fun...

Animal Kingdom Safari

Flamingos

Rhino
Got up close and personal with the giraffes-- they were blocking the road!
You can see the Lion on top of the rock in the middle...

Epcot-- did you know there's a ride inside the dome? Totally cool...

We were on the slopes for a few hours when a straight up blizzard hit... by the time we got back out on the road there was at least a foot-- total white-out :)

Bad Blogger, Bad!

Sorry guys! I've been pretty busy! Wings has gotten some great sponsorships as a result though! We are close to reaching our goals for this year's conference.

I am soon-to-be a certified Cycle Instructor! I got certified through AAAI-ISMA- they had a certification weekend here in town. It was too easy. I say soon-to-be because I'm still waiting on the official paperwork to come in... I went to a tryout at VillaSport, which is a swanky club on the North end of town, but I'm also working with the director of group fitness on post who is letting me teach bits of her classes to get me ready to take over for her in July. That one may be the better option since it's so much closer... But it's fun because I get to do what I love, get a workout, and get paid! Sweet!

Mr. L and I are going on a fun getaway pretty soon. We are headed to Orlando Florida for a few days to getaway, relax, and spend some time together and with his family. I'll post some pictures of our trip when we get back, so be on the lookout for them!

I'm also really ready for Spring. It has been cold cold cold since I moved here in September-- it's crazy that they basically have 7 months out of the year of winter. While it's beautiful, my Aunt Joanne was right when she said I would get tired of it. Bring on the sunshine!

Of course I can't make a post without mentioning Little Bo. He passed his Intermediate Puppy Class at Petsmart, and is two skills away from passing Advanced. We should have already finished, but the two skills are pretty tough for him. Walking on a loose leash in a heel position, self-correcting by only my command. Hard for an excited puppy! The other skill, which he's much better at, is not barking and getting excited at other dogs. He acts all aggressive but really he just wants to play! He's totally fine when we have puppy play dates with friends, but if we are at the dog park or in PetSmart, all he wants to do is bark. If we can master those two things, we will pass advanced training and be ready to take the AKC Good Citizen test. Also pretty tough, but we think our little man can handle it!

Daylight savings has saved me. Bo's favorite thing to do is jump on the bed and lick me to death at 6:30 am, every day, on the spot. Now that it's a little darker in the mornings, he is sleeping until his daddy comes home from PT, around 7:30-8:00! That's a much more human time to be awake, I think. I'm loving it!

I should have some photos soon- I need to download my camera, do some backups, and get it ready for the trip. So be on the lookout for those!!

That's all for now... Thanks for being so patient with me!

-Mrs. L
