Fab Friday

Well, I started out in capris today and have ended up in sweats right now! What is the deal?

Nine days until Disney World... but who's counting?!!?? We absolutely cannot wait! It'll be the kiddos' first time to fly! This next week will be the countdown that consists of last minute things (that'll lead me to Target) like getting some sunscreen, getting our luggage out, doing major laundry, finding out what work Ry's missing in school and packing! Ry and Lex have all these questions when we start talking about flying and Disney and where we're staying, etc. I just keep telling them to "get ready" b/c it's unlike any other thing we've done before!! :)


Lex brought home the cutest little flag art this week that I can't wait to frame!


BT & I are starting a book called Love and Respect with our growth group. I can't wait to get into it even though it's kinda thick and he and I are not readers. We've been laughing about that. I wish I was more of a "reader". We hope it'll prove to be a book that will help strengthen the foundation of our marriage and better yet just bring us closer. I love books like that and I'm praying that it will.

Emma Kate turned 8 yesterday! It rhymes! I hope she likes the socks and underwear I got her! I hope we got the right size in the underwear! :)

Oh my gosh! I remember flying when I was little. My mom packed our little backpacks with little activities to do on the plane. We weren't allowed to open them until we got on the plane

I want to be a fly on the wall to see their excitment while y'all are there.

That book it GREAT! Well, we didn't read the book but we went to the Love and Respect Seminar last fall when we first moved here. It will be so worth yalls time to read it when you get a chance (on the plane)! Look back at my archive for "Love & Respect" back in October or Nov!

You are going to have so much fun at Disney World!!! We went in January, and it is the happiest place on earth - especially when watching your kids' faces experience all the greatness of Disney. Have fun!!!
