Disney was magical and hot...

Our family vacation this year was a week at Disney World.  What a fun week, lots of walking and ladies was it ever hot.  Here is the family picture in front of the castle, minus Austin because he had to work.  
 

I took this picture of my daughter Tracy in front of the train station Mickey.

Because the last time we were there together was when she was a little girl.  That is my almost 50 year old girlie on the right many years ago.


Brooklyn got a makeover at the Bibbitti Bobbitti Boutique 

Isn't she a beautiful little princess:)

Marc and I tried to keep up with everyone:)  Just keep walking, Just keep walking...

The kids loved the characters...

The lines were long for some of these but we waited and they loved it.

Jameson got a robot, his Daddy designed it and he was happy.

Jameson rode the carrousel while Brooklyn was getting the makeover.

It was SO nice to spend the week with these girls.  Alex is heading off to College soon and Avery will be starting her Senior year in High School.  Tracy is the best MAMA to her children!

We had a day by the pool and it was a perfect rest day.

Back at the park again.

Hollywood Studios...

Play and dance with the characters...


Sweetest babies...

The last day we had lunch in a castle, it was beautiful and the food was delicious.  

Sorry for the long post, SO much fun and lots of pictures!  Have a blessed day dear friends, sending HUGS and Prayers your way!

Celebrating 5, tomatoes and splish-splashing...

Our Sweet Brooklyn turned FIVE on the 9th.  My goodness these years have flown right by.  She is the sweetest girly and brings SO much joy to my life.

We celebrated last weekend with a party at her gymnastics training center.  She had a blast and it was great to see her with her little friends.


I will save the story about the air conditioner drama for a later post.  We planned a pool day yesterday and it was a beautiful day to enjoy the pool.  A nice lunch and a cool splash on a hot day, perfect!

Hearing the laughs of the grandkids and watching them splashing each other made my heart happy!

Relaxing...

The tomatoes are plentiful as my Daddy would say!  Loving eating them and sharing lots!  I go out first thing every morning and gather them, it's a time of day I really enjoy.  Sitting by the pool with my coffee and picking tomatoes... I enjoy the simple things of life:)

I am working on the pictures for my Great-Nephew Christopher's memorial service every day.  A little at a time and remembering a life well-lived.

Have a blessed day dear friends, sending HUGS and PRAYERS your way!

Another family loss...

I haven't posted in a while, here is part of the reason why...

This is my Great-Nephew Christopher.  He lost his life in the early morning hours of July 25th in a motorcycle accident.  Our family is heart-broken again.  This is my Niece Regina and her Husband Chris's 26 year old Son.  They are devastated, as is our entire family.  We cherish your prayers.  He was a hard working young man.  He had built a big business and everyone thought highly of him.  He will be missed😢

This is the day Christopher was baptized.  Thank you Lord for this day and the promise of eternal life.

My Sister Brenda passed away in September of 2020 and this was her sweet Grandson.  I am sure she welcomed him into Heaven with big hugs!  Their love for each other was special.  We love you Christopher💔

Please pray for our family.  Thank you all! 

Sending HUGS and PRAYERS your way!
