Jedi Training Academy


More Vacation

I know it has been a while but here are the pictures from the end of our vacation back in May.

We decided to spend the second day in the parks at Disney's Hollywood Studios.
Here is Braeden with the sorcerer's hat.

Braeden kickin' it on a speeder.

Of course when visiting Hollywood Studios you have to ride the Tower of Terror. Braeden was dying to ride this from the moment we walked into the park. I love this ride so the TWO of us took the plunge. Travis was just fine with waiting for us at the bottom.

After the Tower of Terror we needed a little rest.

Cars + boys = good photos


Braeden needed another rest on the way to check out Indiana Jones.

Travis had an appointment in the middle of the day to ride around in race cars so Braeden and I stayed and toured the back-lot.

Of course you have to stop and play at "Honey, I shrunk the kids!"

Don't wanna forget the Muppets!

Braeden once again taking a rest on our way to check out the car speed show.

Early in the day we also signed Braeden up for the Jedi Training Academy. Here he is in his Jedi robe patiently waiting for his light saber.

During his training Darth Vader made an appearance. Check out the videos in the next post to see Braeden laying the smack down.


Once Darth Vader was defeated Braeden received his training certificate.

The last day at Disney we were back to Magic Kingdom.

We took a little ride on the ferry.

We met Mickey and Minnie.


Braeden got captured with Zurg.

Travis took Braeden on a little ride around the track.

We all took a spin in the tea cups.

We headed out to Rainforest Cafe for lunch. Yummy!

Then kicked it on the monorail back to the park.

We had to check out the Barber Shop.

Awwwww.....

The whole family on the Jungle River Cruise.

A few more rounds of Splash Mountain.


Once we left Disney we headed out to Cocoa Beach. While there we thought it would be a good idea to take a little boat tour to see manatees and dolphins.

Braeden is on the lookout for wildlife.

Look a dolphin!

A manatee that wanted to get a little drink from the boat.

On the way back Braeden was allowed to drive the boat. Lucky duck!

Chillin' on the boat.

After our boat trip Travis and Braeden had to hit the beach. I am not big on being in the ocean so I just sat back and relaxed.



Fun in the sun!


Check out their sandcastle.

Where did that head come from?

While we were out on the beach the bomb squad had to be called to the hotel so we had to just chill for another hour or so.

As soon as we were allowed back into the hotel Braeden had to jump right into the pool.


Those are all of the pictures (kind of) from out vacation. Hope you enjoyed them! Look for Braeden's battle against Darth Vader next.
