SICK and my favorite pics from FLORIDA

OK I could have posted a LOT more but these really are most of my favorites!!! I know some of them I already posted but I am posting them again. TEE HEE. I just wanted to post these for those who didn't want to watch the video. We really did have the BEST trip ever. I feel so blessed to of had the opportunity to take a trip like this with my wonderful family.

As for us though...we are ALL sick. Kris ended up in Statcare on the night we got back from Florida and I ended up there last night. I haven't been this sick in soooooo long. Mikayla seems just OK and Alec too though. I am hoping they stay OK, although I do think they both have little colds.

Well stay tuned for pictures TOMORROW because someone in my house has a BIRTHDAY on MEMORIAL DAY:-)

Just love this family picture of us...I am blowing it up and putting it on my wall:-)
Yes, me and Kris
Yes, we love each other more then the day we got married
Yes, I am very, very blessed.

Pure Joy

Testing the water...and then deciding she LOVED it
Squirmy Girl
Grandpa Willy and I...it was so hard to go back to my grandma's house and know she wouldn't be there. I miss her each and every day...but I know I will see her again someday in heaven...and I know that she is with me all the time in my heart.
Nothing beats a Klondike Bar...ESPECIALLY in 95 degree heat!

Isn't that amazing?
Mikayla clapped and said 'YAY' through the whole show. She loved it and so did Alec.
Touching something...I forget. LOL

Checking out everything as we rode the boat back out of Disney
Loading up and heading home from Disney....it was a wonderful day and we were there for the opening show...they made it EIGHT hours there and I thought that was wonderful!
By this point, right before we left, she was DONE. But she was sooooo good all day, God bless my sweet girl. She was such a trooper.

We are HOME!!

I just can't put into words what an amazing time we had in Florida. It was truly a vacation that we will all remember the rest of our lives. It was just FANTASTIC...every part of it!!! We were able to spend some wonderful time with our family...and enjoy Sea World, Disney, AND the beach! All in five days!! Yup...we were busy and we are EXHAUSTED now. I will blog more about the trip tomorrow or in a few days but it was just so much fun. The kids did wonderful on the flights and throughout the entire trip. We were constantly on the move and "going" so I was so worried about them. But I have to brag because they just did amazing. It was over 95 on the days we went to Disney and Sea World and they totally hung in there...sweat and all! Mikayla was a true champ and I think Alec is still in awe over the entire thing! I am only putting 5 pictures on here tonight because Blogger is being slow but I made a video of our trip. It's 7 minutes long and has all the good pictures in it.

I just have to say thanks to my Aunt Chris, Uncle Danny, Willy, Kenny, Karissa, Keith, and Jeff who all helped make this trip so wonderful. I don't think you have any idea guys how much we appreciate all that you did for us. We love you all!

Enjoy!
