As many of you know, my youngest daughter is allergic to many environmental things and unfortunately has asthma. We will be putting reviews here of how how we are changing our household to a better environment for her. Check out our first review of the Dyson Animal DC25.

Animals and Animals and More Animals at Animal Kingdom
Part of our Road Trip included a couple days at Disney. Disney is actually not one of L’s favorite places but we assured her that she would get to go to her best place… Animal Kingdom. This girl is a huge animal lover and her face just lights up so big when she sees any type of animal.
This time was no different. As soon as we walked through the entrance door, we were on a race to find the first animals. It did not take long until we found beautiful surroundings.
We all could have just stood there for hours and carried on conversations about nature’s beauty! L was just amazed at all the animals and how they would walk right up to the fence that we were standing behind. The animals are definitely such a highlight of Animal Kingdom for sure. L and M could care less about the rides there ;).
Another must see highlight was the Lion King Festival there. We were not able to see this previously when we were there at Disney, so we thought we would check out the production. L was a bit nervous walking in because she just wasn’t quite sure what was going on in this particular building out in the wild! Once we were in though, she was all smiles and clapping hands. I even at one time in the show had tears well up in my eyes. The show as THAT awesome. If you are at Animal Kingdom, make sure to put this show on your schedule.
Each section in the building was part of a group and had to do certain sounds at the beginning of the show. We were all just laughing so hard listening to everyone.
L was just amazed by all the sights and sounds the entire time. She never once complained and was so into the show.
The acrobatics of the show were so artistic and was really putting a wow on for the crowd.
Take a listen into the beautiful music that was sang throughout the whole show! You will definitely add this to your must see list. We can’t wait to go back! Notice towards the end of the video of L clapping her little heart out.
Happy Birthday America
We are still road tripping, but almost on our way home. We are in Jacksonville, Florida for our last night of our road trip to take in the sights and sounds of 4th of July on the beach.
The whole One Moms World family wanted to take a minute and wish you all a very Happy 4th of July. However, you may be celebrating today… make sure to just take time to enjoy it. Family means so much. Take lots of pictures and smile and smile and smile.
God Bless America!
Girls First Lake Experience
One Moms World family is continuing their road trip. We have arrived in Gainesville, FL to visit more family. We were here briefly in February but due to unfortunate circumstances with my Grandmother, we had to cut the trip short.
I was excited to see how family friendly the area was this time to see if we would be willing to call this our new home. So far, I am really impressed with it. It is not such a HUGE town like Fort Lauderdale and Miami, so this is definitely on my scale for this mountain girl.
First day out, we took a trip to a near lake. This was the girls’ first experience with the lake and I will go ahead and tell you that this mommy was definitely having anxiety about it all. M was all set and ready to go jump in the lake but I started freaking out. In a lake, you cannot see the bottom and with her being a new swimmer, well you get the picture on how I reacted ;). Once I calmed down and realized that I needed to let M enjoy this new experience, then all was well in the world.
L on the other hand was not too thrilled with it unless she was right next to the steps!
She is such a ham indeed! Hubby and his son were enjoying fishing so we had to go join in all the fun on the dock. Here is M with the beautiful Ashley!
The girls were so fascinated with daddy fishing so I know what this means… Its time to get the girls some cute little pink fishing poles.
The day started out with such a big prize fish for hubby. Can you believe how big this fish was? 😉
I still love teasing him about that. That was just warming up practice for him. As the afternoon went on, the fish would get bigger that he would reel in.
It really was such a fun and family friendly afternoon! The storms started rolling in and with water/lightning not exactly mixing well, we decided to get the heck out of dodge.
The girls and I are on our way to our next stop… Disney World :=)
My Little Ham
We were out and about last weekend and I thought an impromptu photo shoot would be great with the girls. Let’s just say that L was having no part in smiling for the camera. She is such a ham. Let’s take a stroll through the many faces of L.
Isn’t she a little ham with her smirks and all? We were all just laughing because these pictures are so L. Guess what though? I finally got a smile out of L! Look what it involved in order to get that smile.
I so <3 my girls. They truly make life so much more fun 🙂
