Typhoon Lagoon
Posted in Friends, Recreation on 04/19/2009 07:03 pm by Tyler
So last week we went out to Disney’s Blizzard Beach so yesterday we visited Disney’s other water park Typhoon Lagoon. We went with our very good friends, Jon, Ashley, and their boy Gaven. Tyce and Gaven are good friends and liked to play in the water together. They especially love relaxing in the lazy river and soaking up the sun.
Jon and myself had a blast in the gigantic wave pool that dumps 6 foot waves on your head as you will see in the video and photos below.

Easter Day 2009
Posted in Holidays on 04/12/2009 04:07 pm by DestinyHappy Easter! Easter is one of my favorite holidays! It is so special to my heart. For Tyce’s first Easter we got him a new church outfit. G-ma and G-pa (and Fam) sent him a super cute bunny that he loves and a cute Jesus book. Tyler read the Jesus book to Tyce and it was soooo cute! We had to have a quick Easter morning b/c we have church at 9:00 am, our church is a half hour away and it takes me like 3 hours to get ready (not kidding- but Tyce takes up a lot of that time)… but it was super cute and I felt SO grateful today for the atoning sacrifice Christ made so that my beautiful family can live together forever with Him.

Tyce’s First Visit To Blizzard Beach
Posted in Recreation, Tyce on 04/11/2009 08:37 pm by TylerOn Saturday we thought it would be fun to go back and play at one of our favorite spots in Orlando, so we took our 15 minute ride down to the Disney World and went to Disney’s Blizzard Beach.
It was Tyce’s first time to visit Blizzard Beach, well any water park really. He had never really been in a “body” of water, as he usually just takes showers with Daddy and that has been about the extent of his water contact.
Well, we got to Blizzard Beach, put our valuables in a locker and headed for the lazy river that encircles the entire park. We were smart enough to stop by Target on the way and purchase a “Baby Boat” as you can see in the photo shaped like a turtle. So we entered the water, and although its a nice 83 degrees outside, the water felt like we were still back in Utah. Let’s just say it was pretty chilly, but was very nice once you got used to it. Well, Tyce has never really been in contact with cold water. But we sat him down in his turtle with his feet dangling through the two appropriate holes provided for a baby then a nice current hit us and we were on our way.
Tyce was a real tropper through the entire ride. He showed us a little discomfort after initially entering the cold water but shortly after he was enjoying it very much. He would try to splash the water and eat his tube. Good thing he doesn’t have any teeth yet! He even had to go through a gushing waterfall (which we forgot would be in our path) but he did just fine. It was so fun seeing Tyce enjoy himself so. Our little guy is getting so big!
I (Tyler) then went and ran over to do what is one of my favorite favorite rides anywhere. The “Summit Plummit”. A 12 story 90 degree waterslide free fall. Oh man what a rush! I love that ride so much!
