where we've gone and how big they have grown

Hello out there.

I have missed this.  I tried to turn around a walk away but there is something about sharing a life that helps you realize just how happy and blessed it is. 

Last year at this time we were frantically trying to decide what to do with the girls for school.  I'll have to write a post on just that because, let me tell you it was a wing dinger.  It kept me away from the computer and closer to vomitting and breathing into a paper bags.  (Have I said that I am horrible about making decisions?)

For now I'll try to catch up a little, share some highlights of what we have done and what we are doing.  Biggest of all would be our Disney vacation we took in February.

I mean, are you kidding me? I still can't believe we did this.
 
We caught a plane to Florida (along with 30 other people from Brian's family) and played at Disney World for 3 days.

Apparently Queenie was the only one who heard "Ten Hut!"
 
 
But to be honest, the parks didn't hold a candle to the cruise.  If you ask the girls they will tell you hands down it was their favorite part.

It was so magical that we can't wait to go again. Although we must. Unless we find a wagon load of treasure somewhere.

I'm so glad you are back! I've missed your wonderful pictures and humor. Your girls have gotten soooo big!

I am speechless. I have no speech! Welcome back! I'll be searching for that treasure with you. I left my heart on the beaches of the Yucatan! So fun to see the girls. Seeing Erin so big really has me freaked out. They really do grow up fast!
