First Class Ticket to Fun Fun Fun!!!!

We took our first official family Vacation this week. We went to the most magical place on earth. WALT DISNEY WORLD in Orlando, FL. MICKEY MOUSE was our mission and we had four days to complete our task. The first day started with a trip to the airport. We had been counting the days until our trip and David and Lauren were so excited! When we got to our gate the first thing David said was..... "Where are we going to sleep?" Let's just say our vacation was going to be full of laughter! We arrived in Orlando and were taken to our resort. We knew our mission and were ready 5 minutes after we arrived to head to the Magic Kingdom. Our mission to see Mickey was complete before we even left the resort. SO, a new mission was to be made. David said... BUZZ and WOODY... So, that was our next task. We spent some time at the Magic Kingdom and then decided because we were going to get up early the next day we would head back for some rest.





The next morning we were out the door at 7am for Breakfast with Donald Duck and his Pals at the Animal Kingdom. We had a great time. Goofy, Donald, Mickey and Pluto were all there and they came around and took pictures with all of us. We spent the morning riding rides and going on the Kilimanjaro Safari's. That afternoon we headed to MGM where the mission of seeing BUZZ and WOODY were first on the list. After a parade and seeing Tow Ma tor and Lightning MC Queen we were off to find Toy Story Land. When we found them you would have thought we found a million dollars.







As you can see in the pictures. David and Lauren were happy to have completed their mission. Dinner that night was at the Brown Derby... the food was good and the atmosphere was fantastic. The highlight of the evening was a Birthday cake and a personal phone call from Mickey Mouse to wish the twins HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! The whole day was incredible.





More to come!!!! Stay tuned!

My tires are tired!

So this month I put about 1000 miles on the YOTA! Old Yota is getting tired and needs a new mommy! But as we all know Benjamin is still driving the Laberon so if anyone really needs a car it's him. So for now I will be happy to calmly drive old Yota a few more thousand miles. She's been a good truck. No big problems. She had a window malfuntion a few months ago... thanks to David. But, for the most part she's been the best truck I have ever owned! I've been thinking about the next car and what it will be.... there are so my options... I guess you will just have to wait and see!

TTFN!

My Best Friend

Yesterday was a very hard day for me. I think in the back of my mind I knew it was coming. I had watched him suffer for 3 days and knew something was not right!

He looked so sad.

At 5am he started crying... for a second I thought he was better and need to go outside. Nope, he was crying for me to come and hold him. I did. He looked at me and I knew.

I ran him to the vet, they took him from me and told me they would call. They did, it was not good. I prayed for the right thing to do. I knew what to do!

So we put him down. Benjamin and I were there to say good bye!

He was a great dog. He was so sweet and kept me company when I had no one around. He was my best friend and I will miss him everyday of my life. I love you my pokie poke! Kiss Kiss

Running around Kansas!

Well I finally broke down and decided to blog. Seems to be a new thing with me, Being the follower. I used to be a leader and now I follow trends, follow my kids around and pick up things they have left behind. I even followed my mothers footsteps. I really don't like to be a follower it just seems to be where I am at this stage in my life. Anyway...

We went to Kansas, had a GREAT time. It rained and the wind blew! One of the highlights was seeing some extended family. My cousin Andrew is the winner of the State Track Meet. He ran the 300 hurdles. I was completely impressed! WOW is all I can say.

Now we are home and getting ready for a very busy month of June. More pics to come!
