A Visit to Granny's

This is my Maternal Grandmother, Nita. She has emphysema. We recently traveled home to see her for what might be the last time. It was one of this best visits I have ever had. She was so full of stories. I learned that she played basketball in high school and was "pretty good".

These pictures are not the greatest but the preserve a moment in time.


Her eyes were closed!


My Mom's sister, Sandy.

You're Gonna Miss This

Sometimes being a parent is hard, but I wouldn't give it up for the world. These boys are our everything. Everytime I hear this song I cry. I wish I could have an "easy button" that played it for me on the hard days. If you don't recognize the lyrics...google them and listen to the song.

But here they go...

your gonna miss this
your gonna want this back
your gonna wish these days
hadnt gone by so fast

these are some good times
so take a good look around
you may not know it now
but your gonna miss this

but your gonna miss this
your gonna want this back
your gonna wish these days
hadn't gone by so fast

these are some good times
so take a good look around
you may not know it now
but your gonna miss this

your gonna miss this
oh yeah, your gonna miss this

Magical Disney Vacation: Leaving

Before we left Disney World we needed to say good-bye to Mickey. So we had one last meal planned with him and a few friends. It was a a really neat family style meal.

Magical Disney Vacation: LAST Day!

One of the highlights of the trip for me was when my friend Gianna and her new husband Mike met us! The boys, Gianna and I hung out at the pool, spent hours chattiing in bed while the kids slept and the "men" played golf. Then we went to see La Nouba!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AWESOME!!!!!!

Here are a few fun pics from the evening.

Magical Disney Vacation: Epcot

I LOVE, LOVE Epcot!!! LOVE!!!



We ate dinner at Nine Dragons. Cannon used chop sticks for the first time.

Bruce (from Nemo).

We stumbled upon a Character Meet and Greet with ZERO wait. It was CRAZY how awesome the (no) lines were on this trip. It was PERFECT!

How sweet is this? He is handing MM his stuffed MM.

My eyes are closed but this is the only family pic with MM.

One little thing that was really cute on this trip was...

Every time we went back to the hotel, Cannon would say "I want to go to Disney World". I would say, "we are at Disney World". Cannon would say, "No this is not Disney World, this is the hotel". :)
