Flying High

On Friday we'll be embarking on an adventure! We fly to Florida for a week's vacation. ...praying for good weather. Brillo Man has checked and it calls for rain the whole week!!! OH NO! I'll be taking Olivia to DisneyWorld on Thursday, the 25th, to celebrate her 7th birthday. (Brillo Man has opted out as he is in so much pain from his hip which needs replaced (again) that he's not sure he's up to hiking through the parks.) Anyway...it just can't rain! Olivia has been looking forward to this trip for months!

I hope to catch up on some blogging while we're there. I'm taking the laptop. I'm fairly sure that they have free Wi-Fi access at our resort.

I'll be praying for you all (especially you, Sara!) while I'm gone.

Bob and Sue --keep an eye on the house for us!!

Have a WONDERFUL time! Disney World is so much fun, although I haven't been there in years. I look forward to taking Madeline there one day (and her sister!).

I will be praying for you and praying that the sun shines just for you!

Are you still at Disney World ... having a grand time with Brillo Man and Miss O.

Nathan is saving his pennies to go to Disneyland next February :) He asks each and every day for their to be 'stars' in the night sky ... and not thunder and lightning! He wants to sleep there too. Hope you can post some pics so I can show him.

Hugs,

Are ya' home yet Sister? Thinking of you!

I am finally feeling well enough to blog again and as I write this you are probably enjoying yourselves, rain or not!

I am desperate for a vacation! Granted I was in St Charles but that was a working vacation. When I told Dave he didn't understand what I meant until I told him that I was cooking, cleaning, baby sitting, doing laundry, running errands and so on. Kind of like everyday normal for me! THEN, he understood what I meant by "working vacation"!

I'm feeling better, almost back to normal since coming down sick with the "crud". We're actually heading back to St Charles this Friday for our annual Hopkins Birthday BBQ Reunion Bash. Along with Dave's youngest brother, we organize and execute this event every year over the 4th of July weekend. It'll be a whirlwind weekend but it'll be worth it!

Hugs,
Connie

WELL?! I heard there was a massive network of underground tunnels at Disney World, and hopefully, you are not stuck in them! Hope you had a great trip and a great 4th!

Trish said...

Waiting for your play by play of Disney World!
