Cirque du Soleil: La Nouba

So while we were in Florida we decided to go to Cirque Du Soleil because your good friend Ryan Weston is in the show! He always wants us to come and see him! So we decided to go and what a show! It was simulation over load but so awesome! If you are ever in Florida I say go! It was totally awesome!
We made Ryan stay in his makeup so that we can take a picture with him! Then he took us back stage to show us all the cool things! We meet more famous people! (Really I can't get away from them) 
I really miss Ryan he is such a funny/ good guy! I miss his crazy stories! I am glad that his is persuing his dreams!

The Food!

So the Lemmons dine a bit different then my family would on Vacations! I think it is why I am loved the places We ate a lot because I will probably never eat like that ever again! We ate at a sit down place one every day! It was crazy to me! Here are a few stories about where we ate! 
Cinderella's Castle!
This picture was stolen from Cami's blog! 

I was almost as excited to eat at the Castle as the little girls! 
Here is a picture of me and my magic wand! I thought it was super awesome! I was so stoked to see everything it was great! Snow White, Aura, and Jasmine were all there! (no pictures of me see previous post) It was a great way to start the vacation!

This was one of the Best  Places to eat!
This was also stolen from Cami's Blog! 
This cafe is a step back to the TV version of the 1950s! The waiters all have nicknames for you and they treat you like family and boss you arround! They make you have manners like no elbows on the table!

Me, Kenna, and Alex getting ready to order! We are such a good bunch! So Kenna spilled her smoothy all over the table! I talked to the waiter and said "Kenna may or may not have spilled her smoothie. Can we have more napkins."  Next time we saw him he had made us napkin hats! It was super funny! Mine said tattle tale and Kenna's said butterfingers! We got a picture of us but I can't remember who took it! We wore your hats the rest of the time in the resturant! Later we sitting there and Kenna had her elbows on the table and said "That is it, come here and put your nose against the wall" He had everyone in the resturant tell her stop being a brat!
This is the picture of Kenna putting her nose on the wall I was so embrassed!

We also learned that Kenna and I shouldn't go without food! So our meal plan had one counter services and sit down and a snack! Well one day Kenna and I didn't eat breakfast! We went to Down Town Disney and then make our way to EPCOT! I had forgot my phone in the room but my tummy was rumbling so loud I thought that my phone was vibrating! I talked to Natalie about how much I wanted to eat at the front of the park! Her and Doran talked about how they wanted to eat at America! I said it that at the front and Natalie really didn't answer! So we started to walk over!  We passed Cananda, England, France, Moroco, and Japan! With every country I passed I got madder and madder! By the time I got to Moroco I was ticked! Alex kept trying  to point out the cool things but I didn't want to hear it! I said Alex good thing I have glasses on because if looks could kill you would be dead" He didn't try to talk to me any more! But once I got food my mood improved termendously!
Kenna too got grumpy hungery so much that one time Cami suggested that we use "code green" to mean that Kenna needed so food! They worked well! All you had to say was code green and Kenna was showered with snacks!
We ate at the seas (with an aquarium wall) Italy-Mexico-Germany-Crystal Place-Grand Floridian I loved them all!


Top Ten Reasons I am Still Single! (in no particular order)

I know you are wondering why is she sharing this! Well first off I think I am funny and secondly sometimes people  think it is the eight wonder of the world that a Mormon girl at my age isn't married, but that is just silly! Thridly sometimes need to remind myself that I have things that I could work on! Fourthly I am not perfect but I know that one day find someone who will truly love me for who I am and I am content to wait and not set for something less and I want my posterity to know that!
  1.  I think I am in love with Captian America and Thor. I am waiting for them and since they are fictional characters it is not looking so good!
  2. I am awesome and I think the boys are a little bit scared of my awesomeness!
  3. I am a little bit Chubby!
  4. I have serious commitment/Trust issues!
  5. I don't date probably because cause I have yet to master flirting! But I have a goal to get better!
  6. I am not ready to share my Holidays Yet!
  7. I think of men as boys and I think that boys are Stupid!
  8. I haven't found someone who thinks I am the funnest person in the world (or visa versa)
  9. My family isn't setting me up with anyone or pushing the subject because they haven't found someone good enough yet either! (Which I love them for)
  10. I think that boys that like me are super weird or have problems! (I am not sure that I want to marry a weirdo yet!)
These are the reasons why I am not married yet! I have owned it and now I am going to Rock it! I am going to copy a goal of my friend Jenny! For the year 2013 I am going to ask 4 boys out (one every quarter)! Now this doesn't seem like a bit deal but for me it is Gar-gant-u-an!

Thanksgiving

This Thanksgiving was my first Holiday Spent away from my family! I had a hard time. I love being in Disney World but this was the hardest day! Right before we were about to leave the Animal Kingdom (the park we were in) my mom called me! She told me she was just going to senior citizen center! I started to cried and said why would you call me to tell me! It was a little funny because everyone thought something bad happened! Because I was crying! Nope I am just a big baby missing all of her favorite things! So when we went to dinner at the Grand Floridian Hotel! It really was Grand! I felt a little out of place! I was thought this is how the other half live and frankly it wasn't bettler! I would have given anything to have my feet hurt because I had been working all day and spending time with my family then stay in a hotel like that! So when we sat down to dinner I couldn't stop crying cause I missed my family! Natalie was such a dear she said Go to the bathroom! She knew I would feel better not making a seen! Dinner was very good especially the pumpkin cheese cake! Natalie in order to lighten the mood decided to have us go around the table and say what we were thankful for! I am not going to lie that made my day! Even though I was not with my family family I  was with family! Kenna and I mostly cried through the whole thing but it was wonderful and I could feel everyone's love! It was great to see where Kenna had come in a year! My sister is one of the strongest women I know who has over come things that would have broke me! I was very happy to see her replace such sad memories with such happy ones! Kenna was in most pictures Disney World pictures because Alex's family would pull her in and told her to they wanted her there!  No matter what happens between Kenna and Alex, the trip I think they helped to heel Kenna's heart and I will be ever greatful! 
Our Thanksgiving Table! Me: Grateful to be in Disney World for Family and Friends and the creamy potatoes, Kenna: Grateful for Me and Family and Friends!  Alex: Grateful for Football and Family! Ben: Ben was grateful for everyone at the table for different reasons! My favorite Cami because she is his sister and Natalie because she laughs at his jokes! Jessica: I am not going to lie she was super quite but I am sure it was family and friends! Amy: who was grateful for family! Doran: grateful for ... I can't remember but later he said I know were are not your family but we are grateful to be the 2nd best and we want you to know that we consider you family. Kenna cried and I interperated She was grateful that they loved her! Cami: who was grateful for what we had been given she had been given what she needed (should sound like a song) and Berkley! Berkley: who was grateful for Cami.  Natalie (taking the picture) who was grateful for Family and Friends (she started it all and it made me cry)! (PS the quotes may not be exact but somewhat close it has been over a month) 
This is our Family picture in  front of one of the best trees I have ever seen indoors! The photographer asked how many and when we said 30 he said we could all fit! Clearly from the picture there is more room! I think he just got used to taking all the rich people's family photos with a max number of people of like 4 or 5! Boy they don't know what they are missing!

Adventures in the Singles Ward

So we need to take a break from Disney to Tell this Hillarious story! This is for my Aunt Allison sorry it took me so long!


For fhe we broke into groups and  went to buy stuff for our sub for Santa families! Our group was  Kenna, Kyla, Larry (Kyla's boyfriend), Justin (my friend Ryan's brother) and me! We decided to So we went to Fred Meyer to buy some stuff for your sub for Santa family! Justin wanted to go to get them a nativity, but there wasn't one there, and I was in trouble because I wanted to go to there! So all through the store we kept fighting! He would suggest something and then he would says no to it! He was driving me crazy! So then when we were checking out
he said "Oh Sweety your going to get this that is so nice of you"
Me: "I am not your sweety"
Justin: You pay for this and I will put them in in the basket Honey
Me: I am not your honey
Justin: "I am not sure why she married me she is so amazing!"
Me: "Justin shut up"!

So as we are walking out of the store and I say don't ever do that again!

Desert Book! Justin and I are fighting through the whole store because he won't make a decision!
Me: Justin would you just make a decision!
Justin: huge sheepish smile
Worker: Wow that was a husband smile is I have seen one!
Me: He is not my husband
Worker: Oh your engaged
Me: No we are at fhe for your singles ward!
Worker: you aren't dating
Me: No
Worker: Maybe this is a prophesy! (then we pinches my cheek)
Me: No its not! I am a lot older then him
Justin the whole time is just laughing and I am dying

Then a text message conversation between me and Justin about the  12 days of Christmas!
J: Hey Melissa, honey darling ^^ hehe I'm so sorry but I'm not going to make it to fhe tonight but I still will deliver the gift to the that couple tonight! (more about the couple that doesn't matter)
Me: Justin you are crazy! (then the address) (I actually first sent it to our cousin Justin and it was pretty funny!)
J: Why am I crazy sweety?
Me: You know why! Thank you for delivering that tonight
J: Anytime Babe! Bahamas
Me: Stop!
J: Wait I meant to say Bahahaha but my phone thought Bahamas
Me: got to love auto correct
J: Bahamas are nice to

So not a problem right! Wait until today at church during Sunday school when He is teaching! I am  sitting there being a good student listening and commenting! Then he says I need some one to read a quote for me! I give him the look like I would if you need me to and he says in front of the whole class "Oh honey buns will you read this for me" I was so embarrassed! I said "I am not your honey buns and now I am so embarrassed I can't read"  I could barley read and I have no clue what it was about! I was dying! Then I gave it back to him and he said "Thanks babe"  "I am not your babe" Then I was glaring at him during the lesson he said to everyone "stop glaring at me"! Then as I was walking down the hall people tell me that I am really robbing the cradle (he is 21 and just got home from his mission) I was so mordified!

Now before you all think this is real he does not like me! He just thinks he is super funny! As mordified as I was I really do think that it is super funny after the fact!

We rode with 27 people in a Pirates of Caribbean! Who sat in between the married people! Me!

My Favorite ride! Kenna looks so scared! (Not fake) 
I love that Brooklyn is so scared! 
This little girl told Shaun to do this pose! I though it was so hillarious!
This pose is for Natalie and all the Asians! (Same ride twice in one day (I made them do it) and was I so happy and Brooklyn still scared)
I was Late! Natalie ... who know what she is doing! Brooklyn still scared! Poor girl! Kenna was trying to help her! You can't see it but a dinosaur is jumping out at you! 
Second time and I was so scared! So funny! 
Second time again! Still scared not as bad as Kenna! Shaun makes me laugh so much!  
I love Splash Mountain! I was kind of acting and kind of not! 
I really love Shaun's face and Brad just looks happy!
The Whole picture is Lemmon's! 21 people! I am not going to lie! This was one of my favorite things! I love telling the people that we had 27 people who wanted to go on the rides! We filled a boat on It's a Small World (23) Pirates of the Caribbean (27) Tower of Terror (21) and a few more other rides! Loved it!
This is the scariest ride I went on! It was at Universal Studios! I was so scared I almost peed my paints! So did Natalie but for completely different reasons! Seriously one of the longest waited I have ever been one! 
Most of the Lemmon's who went to Universal! This was super funny picture!

Fear of Famous People:Disney World

Remember how I have a fear of famous people! (See March 20th, 2012!) Well apparently that translates to Disney Characters! I love Disney Movies and pride myself on being one of "those people" who love to talk and sing Disney! Well aparnetly that doesn't trump the  angzitity I feel meeting even fake famous people! But on our vacation we did met many famous Disney people! I just met them from a distance! Here are some pictures of the Famous Characters that I saw!

This is Princess Aura (From Sleeping Beauty)! A certain person may or may not cried when she met her!
We saw these Mice (the only kind I like) all over the park! In parades/Shows/Fantasmic !
I watched this one to the side lines! The little boy is Jaxson, Natalie's nephew! 
So this is not the right pictures but we did eat breakfast with Winnie the Pooh and his friends it was super nice!  But I didn't want any pictures!
I walked by these two twice but even though they were just machines I didn't want to wait and see them! (Nataie's nices and nephews, Aunt and Cousins!) 
Once again I walked passed these two but I just nodded my head! (Natalie's cousin Heather and her daughter Liberty)

We also walked passed these guys and talked about how we might have stopped if they had Kevin!

As you can imagine we met many more characters! I am very grateful to see them! I love it seeing them not talking to them! I did from a distance even see Merida!
