Third Time Is a Charm..

Our favorite restaurant in the Gulf Shores area is The Original Oyster House! We ate there three times this week... here is the best picture we got to night... apparently we are bad about closing our eyes in the middle of pictures!

We also went and saw a movie at the Wharf.  While we were there the fire alarms went off, but it was just a false alarm!  It definitely made for a memorable movie :)

What I'm Loving Wednesday


I enjoying reading several blogs that participate in WILW, 
so I thought I'd join in this week.  
It all started on Jamie's blog!

I'm loving all of Hallie's adorable Christmas outfits for next year.  I've come to LOVE the brand Mud Pie.



I'm also loving fried shrimp from this place since I'm spending the week in Perdido Key with my parents!!

I am of course missing (and loving) this crazy fellow wearing the blue shirt!! (This picture was taken in July 2010 on a roller coaster at Disney.)  I also love our precious baby girl!


  • I am also loving my 2 weeks off from work.
  • I am loving feeling Hallie kick  more often this week.  I enjoy trying to go to sleep at night and feeling her go crazy in my tummy.
  • I am throughly loving the Liz Lange maternity line from Target even though I only currently have 2 jackets, 2 pair of pants, and 2 shirts! (3 of the 6 items were gifts)

Catch up..

Disney World - Animal Kingdom


Animal Kingdom was Daniel's favorite park! I cannot find any of my pictures from the Safari, but that was our favorite ride. I think they were downloaded earlier in the week because we actually made 2 trips to Animal Kingdom! They only allow biodegradable products into the park due to the safari animals. So, the straws were paper and they didn't have lids.

We started the day out by accidentally happening upon a parade!
We were excited to ride the roller coaster. It had a Yeti museum you walked through while you waited to get to the ride. The roller coaster actually went down the course until the path "ended" and then went backwards! It was a neat ride and the views were gorgeous.


My crazy husband. We went through the single rider line on a lot of rides to get through faster. It meant we didn't ride together but we got to ride more times!

The roller coaster starting to go backwards!

Waiting in line :)
My absolute favorite part of the day was the Festival of the Lion King.. it was almost a mini-broadway play of the Lion King. They had awesome floats and acrobats. The costumes were amazing. The singing almost shamed the real broadway play.









More characters!








Carvings in the Tree of Life

The Bug's Life 4D movie inside the Tree of Life was AWESOME! It had water that sprayed you and bugs that felt like they were moving under your seat. Daniel enjoyed the technology of it. Here we are with our special (ugly) glasses on.

Dino-land had some neat old style fair rides. This is a huge dinosaur you pass when entering into this part of the park.
