Magical Thanksgiving 2008

It truly was a "magical" day and a "magical" Thanksgiving! There was zero stress as we all enjoyed the Magic Kingdom at Disney World..even my girls got along! The weather was gorgeous...except at night...a little chilly for this Florida girl. So, maybe we should make this a new family Thanksgiving tradition ! ;)

Another Happy Reunion!

Happy Thanksgiving!

I am leaving this afternoon for Orlando to meet my "goyals" (as Christopher calls them) !! They are driving down with my sister Charmaine and nephew Tyler. Actually, Britany and Taylor are following her in Britany's car because Taylor simply could not LIVE without her boyfriend Jamie for the week! Ahh, young love.... That whole story was a lot of drama....trying to figure out how we were going to get everyone down here. Whew. I'm just glad they are coming! We are going to Disney on Wednesday. Rob, Ann-Marie and Cooper are coming...YEAH!!! We are planning on going over to the church were Nana and Papa were married more than 40 years ago to have a little reunion of sorts. I'm looking forward to getting some group shots of all of us together. (Hmmm.Christmas card idea!) Christopher packed his little suitcase last night and dragged it downstairs to the front door. He then ran in circles around the couch with his Mickey Mouse ears on! He doesn't know that Daddy won't be joining us yet.. =( Daddy is going to Toronto. If Colin could come, that would be the icing on the cake... I am really looking forward to Thanksgiving this year. I miss the big family get-togethers....all of the birthday parties, Holidays, cook-outs, etc. This will be so great! I won't be blogging again until I get back either Friday or Saturday. So, HAPPY THANKSGIVING !!

The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year!

We had a wonderful day today! I am never going to complain about my hum drum routine again! It felt sooooo good to just be able to get up and outside today! I think that I needed to get sick to appreciate the little things in life ... like the ability to breathe maybe?? Ahhh. It was a gorgeous day. Just crisp enough for a sweater. We went to music class and then to the mall to see Santa, have lunch and window shop! I was so happy and grateful to get dressed and spend a beautiful day with my beautiful boy!! =) He has been so patient the last two weeks, playing alone while mommy was a zombie on the couch!

Finally..

I think I'm finally rounding the corner! I'm feeling much improved this morning. I've been feeling pretty good in the mornings the last couple of days, but usually go down hill in the afternoon and evening, but this morning feels more improved...Thanks to everyone for their concern and wishes!

Sick As A Dog...

So, I thought I was feeling better...then I took a two hour nap yesterday and woke up worse than ever. Long story short, I have been diagnosed with "Atypical Pneumonia" mycoplasma pneumonia suspected. I'll tell you the whole story later; for now, I'm going back to bed!

FHS Cheering ~ STATE CHAMPS!!!!

(Taylor is a "flyer" In the opening shot, she is in the back, not easy to see. Then she can be seen to the far left of the screen. Just try and follow her! During the tumbling sequence she is the last girl to tumble diagonally; doing a full twist at the end to arousing cheers!)

Inspiration For Difficult Times...(2Videos)

Insert Snazzy Title Here...

I have officially "caught" the virus that little man Chan started last week. Ugh. I hate being cooped up in the house. I may drag Christopher and myself to the mall today in order to buy him a new movie so that he will let me rest. We'll see.

Taylor got her license yesterday! Crazy. I CANNOT believe that I now have TWO children driving. She is out car shopping with her dad today ~ that lucky duck.

She gave me a little scare last night. Britany called me very concerned as the coach was driving Taylor to the emergency room.. (way too many flashbacks from gymnastics) fortunately, it was just a sprained wrist.

I am so looking forward to their visit for Thanksgiving and our family trip to Disney with Rob, Ann-Marie, Cooper, Charmaine, Tyler and Nana & Papa! It should be a great time and I'm sure to get a billion pictures!! The only thing that could make it better would be if April and her family could come down too...

At Long Last! My Knight In Shining Armour Has Arrived!

Halloween was fun this year. I took Christopher to the mall for "trick or treat" As you can see, he was my knight in shining armour! You should have seen his face when he saw all of those tons of little kids dressed up in costumes. He was in awe. So cute.
