Living Seas at Epcot

So now it is not called the Living Seas it is called The Seas with Nemo and Friends. It no longer has the underwater station with the divers. Now you ride in on a Giant Clam in search of Nemo. It is really cool and kids like this a lot more. It was funny b/c when I got there I was looking for someone I know that works there doing dolphin research and I ran in to another person I know that works there with them as well. Talk about small world.

Orlando

This was a new roller coaster at Animal Kingdom, it was really fun to ride.

View from our hotel balcony. It was 80 degrees so we could enjoy the pool and hot tub at night.

When we got back from NV we turned right around and drove down to Orlando so Josh could go to a Baseball Coach's convention. We stayed at the Marriott World Center Resort and as you can see I went sightseeing while he was in meetings.

Pics from Tahoe

Here are a few more pictures we took while at Lake Tahoe.

Here are a few pictures of us opening gifts on Christmas Eve.

Injury

right after (the index finger on the right)

We were playing pool the other night and I went to break the balls. Well needless to say I almost broke my hand. These pictures do not do justice to how swollen and black and blue my finger and hand were.

Flying over Colorado

We flew in from Denver, well before the blizzard hit so we didn't have any problems. We took a couple of pics when we were flying over the mountains. The first day we were in Nevada I woke up and checked the temperature and it was 4 degrees. The other picture that is posted is the front yard filled with snow. A few days later it rained and all of the snow melted. Since then it hasn't been that bad.

Christmas Cafe

What I wished my table looked like (above)

my table (above)

We have a Christmas Cafe at church where we each can host a table. Each host decorates their table and plays "host" to the guests at her table. Each lady had a different style. Here are just a few pictures of some of the tables.

Present

it doesn't have the 60 on my picture

Josh gave me one more present for my birthday. There is this local artist that draws local scenes or animals and I really like him. He reminds me a little of Walter Anderson. So he got me this print that I really liked. Notice that that artists last name is Thames.

Birthday

Yesterday was my 29th birthday and unfortunately I wasn't feeling that well. We had made dinner reservations at Cypress and I was bound and determined to make it there. We went to visit Meagan and Jeff before we went so they took a couple of pictures of us dressed up. Dinner was great but our service was less than excellent. Oh well, the food made up for it. We will be leaving in a week to go to Nevada for 2 1/2 weeks and off to Orlando after that. I will try and post when we are gone.

New TV

We have been debating getting a new tv for 2 years. The TV we wanted was really just too expensive. Well we caught a break. The weekend after Thanksgiving Sears had a sale that took off 500 dollars from the original price, it was a tax free weekend in SC and we don't have to pay interest for 2 years. So needless to say we got it. It is pretty cool to have HDTV the picture is really clear. Josh of course loves it.

Thankgiving day pic of us

Josh and his Yankee socks

Here was a fall picture we took on Thanksgiving

Did I forget to say .......It snowed last week

Last Tuesday we had a weird coastal storm that brought snow to Charleston. It wasn't cold enough to stick but it made for an interesting story.

Early Christmas

My Rachael Ray knives

We also had our annual Christmas picture and opened presents since we will be in Nevada this year for Christmas.

Thanksgiving

Here are a few pics from Thanksgiving.

Early Birthday

My new Ipod Shuffle

Homemake Chocolate Icing Cake

We celebrated my birthday a little early since my mom and sister were in town. We went to the Japanese restaurant and had cake and presents back at home.
