My lack of blogging....so I'm catching up!

Seems like I am forever trying to catch up on this blog. At any rate, I've said it before and I'll say it again....I will try and do better!! Back in October last year, we decided to take Dee to Disney for her birthday. Let me just say we had the best time, except for the occasional whine from Ben about the lines. We traveled the week of the 26th, which is Delaynee's birthday. The lines were really not that bad. We stayed at Disney's "All Star Music" hotel and enjoyed a movie every night by the pool!!




Nice, clean, convient and around $89 a night!!! We went to The Magic Kingdom first and had an amazing time. Delaynee rode Space Mountain with us and all sorts of other rides. We had pictures, but that night my husband decided he wanted to look at them and accidentally erased the pictures from that day! I'm still a little peeved about it, but definitely a lesson learned.... keep the camera away from Ben!



The next day we went to EPCOT!!! If you go, I don't care how long the line is...go on "SOARIN" It will be worth the wait, I promise!!!! Here are a few picture's from the day below.




They were having the Wine and Food Show
DEE found Stitch!!!


The following day we took a trip to The Animal Kingdom and I'm pretty sure it was our favorite!!




~The Tree of Life~

Inside the root system of the tree they put on a show called "A Bugs Life" this is a must see!
MONKEY BUSINESS!!!
















We had a fabulous time at Disney and Dee said it was her best birthday ever!! I posted more pictures below for your enjoyment!!

Something about the woods!!

There's something about the woods.
All alone surrounded by God's magic.
Peace and quiet in my solitary moods.
No worries, people or events so tragic.
Crisp, cool air in my lungs.
The whisper of forest breeze.
A special time on my memory to freeze.
~Luke
Going to the woods is one of our most favorite things in the world to do. I just love going out there to all the peace and quiet that it brings. Nothing but the breeze coming through the trees and Delaynee's laughter. These pictures were taken last weekend out at our friends property.

My little climber. I almost had a few heart attacks while she was doing this.

Just nature at it's best!

OMG! It has been such a long time since I have posted to this blog. Looking back on my previous posts, I can't believe how my girl has grown. We have been busy living life and enjoying our family. There has been a lot going on in our little corner of the world lately. I recently resigned from my job and even though I loved it and I miss it like crazy, it has taken quite a lot of stress out of my life. My Mama had surgery the end of September and has had some new issues arise that we are currently taking care of. She has several doctor appointments in the next couple of weeks to see what and how they will treat her. Ben, Delaynee and I spent a week at Disney for her 8th birthday. Delaynee rode lots of rides which included Space Mountain, Splash Mountain AND Everest!!! We can't wait to go back! My Sister-in-law and I took the kids out to the fair a couple of weeks ago and even though we almost froze, we all had an amazing time! Below are a couple of pictures that I took while there!
