I was 34 weeks yesterday!!! I have been trying my best to get things done around the house to welcome baby Carly home, but I tend to just be lazy most days. Today is one of them. All I have done is clip some coupons...make a grocery list... take a nice long bath...and play on the Wii. That is it! I wish I had the energy to do something around the house but it seems I have reached the point where I start to retain water and swell like a balloon in my hands and feet by doing the smallest tasks. This morning the clipping coupons made my hands swell. How is that? Well all in all... things are going well. Baby Carly should weigh about 5 lbs now and should be around 19" long. This just means we are running out of room. My next appointment is on Wednesday. I should start going weekly soon. I will try my best to keep you up to date.Mandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12602114933767693210noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9047044820932569324.post-40331871737206467162009-02-27T08:34:00.000-08:002009-02-27T08:40:55.066-08:00Getting ready for baby Carly...Well... I have been working HARD getting this house ready for Carly to arrive. Her room is starting to come together. We have the crib up and a temporary mattress in there till we get ours. Her room has by far been the easiest as we didn't change much of anything but buy some bedding to match the room as it was already painted. Taylor's room is so close to being done. I painted an old armoire black this week and put some fabric on the doors. We made a headboard for her bed and made risers to lift the bed up for storage underneath. It seems all I have left to do is the finishing touches with pictures on the walls, etc... And... our room has had a whole new makeover. We sold our bedroom furniture and bought some new along with a king size bed. PRAISE JESUS!!!! Just had it delivered last night and I already love it! We will be ready before we know it!!!<img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5307517697202896098" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJwN4z8IndPQXfMkW3cX-YyA8hRU_WBlzerIdz7w6D7fuoHflmOeiI_wK-Yq6uCtOGfX4J1RE2nJP4iltgLGKl9rixjMqv3vHc1VbFkqFINRQ4Y-ypyWSdXgle-LLnM6XHHlP4JJ_QZ2hM/s320/DSCN1642.JPG" border="0" /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5307517697749796530" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxnSVzMiX0xSA2FfnEM9KEokbjnrgxeKSyoS8Eayqkh1UCRssy9NoOEPXfw4ebhMD-DxWhOGrI5NCwkhVuYZ0DeWGc_0P8pL5Kc4df_9ivlso5xr4u2Pwbc0GA4v-7h4JlfsDvsrNDfG1U/s320/DSCN1643.JPG" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5307517699111761922" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhv_8T2Vv1ETzOFpZWKw_u8DUdwOShzmT3gQ-JSe3nTjg3JUU_vZBnHyQkcxp9AOT9W0PnM73DS1-qQ7pgHIhCh0PfMQPRNP9EKYunkOXX3R1WL0Co23oqiUI7YcFdItfSnMflFmArc4BNR/s320/DSCN1644.JPG" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5307517703398489602" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijCS1CdGxM0oVLoyv-uBFj1_CtnDEGj0FLZKuuzR_6ZE0s52-RIRLl_YaQAcNjKNUfE2WrvpluhAvEOoxrxx9HmV6YKpKuW_An4XSLhyphenhyphen2sQAD1swyrScMyXNDJo8_9UeXsfulFzolnMWKw/s320/DSCN1645.JPG" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5307517707427795650" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWtAlWcmk7SK5CyyGabM_K4NOKA0_uFzs7brUJkn3N9byDnw52E7NC0m_4dlpnfLDNDGXXk-jb_EaTNmfQVCzCLJf3y9iuwKfYzquZkW6G_-FWC6SQXCOaXfQBjHEhpnxYfNBfNfIw0VuR/s320/DSCN1646.JPG" border="0" />Mandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12602114933767693210noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9047044820932569324.post-83695800559622240152009-02-04T07:00:00.000-08:002009-02-04T07:11:21.990-08:00Taylor is 7!!!!Is it possible that Taylor is 7 now???? My baby is not a baby any more. When will I realize this? Maybe never. She will ALWAYS be my baby and I hope that she will always cuddle with me! For her birthday this year I did NOT make her cake. This is a first. I also did nothing to get ready for a party. We went to the Incredible Pizza Company on her birthday and we ended up spending a good 5 hours there. PHEW! I was worn out after that one! I was just getting over having the flu and I was having sever back pains this day, but I made it through it and we had a blast.

"It's a girl!" We were very fortunate to have both my mom and Nick's mom there with us and Taylor too. Taylor was so excited. The look on her face was priceless. She thinks they will get to dress alike now. Hmm.... we will see about that. We are very excited though and have already started the process of moving Taylor into her big girl room. The baby will be in Taylor's old room that is very princess like. Now Taylor's room will be purple, hot pink and zebra print. We still have some work to do by painting some furniture... hanging things on the walls... and wait for the rest of the bedding to come in. She does love her new room though... here are a few pics of the room in progress.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDs4K8C_tId9RGM7jBggNDScSXrM7c9Fi2VE4UBCs5EDKsJXW8-WX4JNBIgxLam60qViTNC-hwJyo0uxQ4MuwP1vwr5XL2X4ba1nPbcWN8zFSek5ZCN_JOe-JflMXF5Iffrnur3_YLBjY8/s1600-h/DSCN1569.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5298956877325164626" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDs4K8C_tId9RGM7jBggNDScSXrM7c9Fi2VE4UBCs5EDKsJXW8-WX4JNBIgxLam60qViTNC-hwJyo0uxQ4MuwP1vwr5XL2X4ba1nPbcWN8zFSek5ZCN_JOe-JflMXF5Iffrnur3_YLBjY8/s320/DSCN1569.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbWDv47GwRSOeN_0Ete_aeJ9Cc8Z3h2VoE708j_L8axOaiWKklBX9J5F6AEfhwD7IHbn10vy5iNMDEnfGTTB73z4DdAkr8D0UcM5MBbu-YGh4X3ERplvAneng6amBrMF_FG-4KaAYLdLeJ/s1600-h/DSCN1576.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5298956872831862530" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbWDv47GwRSOeN_0Ete_aeJ9Cc8Z3h2VoE708j_L8axOaiWKklBX9J5F6AEfhwD7IHbn10vy5iNMDEnfGTTB73z4DdAkr8D0UcM5MBbu-YGh4X3ERplvAneng6amBrMF_FG-4KaAYLdLeJ/s320/DSCN1576.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div> </div></div>Mandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12602114933767693210noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9047044820932569324.post-43423206507921809562009-02-04T06:49:00.000-08:002009-02-04T07:12:29.220-08:00Taylor's Christmas DanceTaylor's dance studio puts on a small performance for parents during the holidays.

All I can say is that it flew by. We went to Mississippi to visit Nick's side of the family on the 20th of December. We then came back just in time for Christmas at our house and then we left again on the 26th to spend the weekend with my side of the family.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibklHTAkkyN8YpfzJ4QbRHI1MtobheSZD_36k_zFHR7GnGhzX-xeZQhvBEElgpgzLDfSNTEtI917QkbXSRaHoqDV8biKcJXRkPM2XLq1QhdzVYW_MSHt_J_b2y2jfmIMTPLJgVWb6Q5jvi/s1600-h/DSCN1530.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5298954234898851154" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibklHTAkkyN8YpfzJ4QbRHI1MtobheSZD_36k_zFHR7GnGhzX-xeZQhvBEElgpgzLDfSNTEtI917QkbXSRaHoqDV8biKcJXRkPM2XLq1QhdzVYW_MSHt_J_b2y2jfmIMTPLJgVWb6Q5jvi/s320/DSCN1530.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiecvV9Q9_vrhTNgdmvbLRTg4FZNMs3DOY-MT9C_fR85Ffjgpy2Znnwe-K-HrwNx1_qVOxuPCfYWf8YNrhe0m7yCCHU8rVmJPZ5cNMo7yg2-PMe5pVy0CxxyVxJ0AYab_9m9bdGmh93Rbvk/s1600-h/DSCN1526.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5298954233024910178" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiecvV9Q9_vrhTNgdmvbLRTg4FZNMs3DOY-MT9C_fR85Ffjgpy2Znnwe-K-HrwNx1_qVOxuPCfYWf8YNrhe0m7yCCHU8rVmJPZ5cNMo7yg2-PMe5pVy0CxxyVxJ0AYab_9m9bdGmh93Rbvk/s320/DSCN1526.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLf6DgXKtZAcWy3U7bJJAa6TMIJLKyYHrWIr58RJdB7qbfr90jeSjJZNfjqPvUBUKXHbS4H4lNH_tMwDYf3EIAkN9fX2Cy2bYcm-DgdD1124XhvZyjBIXwES3WsSvlJxn3Lax9gqskugdq/s1600-h/DSCN1523.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5298954221681220562" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLf6DgXKtZAcWy3U7bJJAa6TMIJLKyYHrWIr58RJdB7qbfr90jeSjJZNfjqPvUBUKXHbS4H4lNH_tMwDYf3EIAkN9fX2Cy2bYcm-DgdD1124XhvZyjBIXwES3WsSvlJxn3Lax9gqskugdq/s320/DSCN1523.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqxlN2-c2I5brbG5K4hTf4bbeM9k4wP2tPqlLEXUynF8J9lWQ_u7hHJdKOb5XhCytWw6A7J9Lau9AaBMtoz-4di2kFAYA9Op4RRf1z_-ceOpfqSmyByJckM1qAw0MRRY3NhjijjP7MGARW/s1600-h/DSCN1514.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5298954220151368882" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqxlN2-c2I5brbG5K4hTf4bbeM9k4wP2tPqlLEXUynF8J9lWQ_u7hHJdKOb5XhCytWw6A7J9Lau9AaBMtoz-4di2kFAYA9Op4RRf1z_-ceOpfqSmyByJckM1qAw0MRRY3NhjijjP7MGARW/s320/DSCN1514.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div> </div></div></div></div>Mandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12602114933767693210noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9047044820932569324.post-10041816952952326222008-11-21T07:19:00.000-08:002008-11-21T07:25:37.523-08:00In loveWell... I am in love! We went to my Dr. yesterday for another check up and we were able to see a picture of our little baby on ultrasound again. We saw a perfect little one with fingers and toes and eyes... So precious. We are still in awe of the miracle God has given us. After so long of thinking this just won't happen we finally let go of that burden and let God take control and look what he does. He creates something so amazing that words cannot even describe the feeling we get when we see this miracle growing. He is an amazing and faithful God who always provides. Thank you Jesus for protecting this little baby and letting him grow big and strong!<img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5271132058132530450" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 319px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnge7seV5IhW93eOSTuu4Fk9G1DFLyjmsoAC82lKeYkkXiIS1Tmw2-Cosucr9gr6bXKrqsy5wjYOOF_hx5vvDZ702-KZ65pmti0PMsjLAUKeImm1CvI9NCHmVYO1fswkBtxPYYPlkZKomB/s320/scan001001.bmp" border="0" /><br /><div></div><br /><div></div>Mandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12602114933767693210noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9047044820932569324.post-21720099062746466732008-11-16T10:34:00.001-08:002008-11-16T10:41:50.821-08:00My life has changed...Well... as of last Wednesday my life took a dramatic change. I along with 40 other people at my company were laid off. For now I think this will be a good change for me. I will finally have a chance to clean out my house that seems to get worse every day. I will also be able to get more rest which I definitely need while pregnant. AND... most important I will have more time to spend with my family. It seems my daughter is growing up too fast, so my time with her is the most precious. I want as much of it as I can get. Starting December 1st she will be a car rider home from school. This is all new to me after she has been at a day care facility of some sort for the past 6 1/2 years. What did I get myself into. Oh wait... this wasn't my decision... but we will make the BEST of it. Then of course we will start planning for the arrival of our new little one sometime in June. This is all very exciting. We just need to pray that God can lead us financially to make this adjustment work. I have complete faith and trust in Him that He knows what he is doing.Mandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12602114933767693210noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9047044820932569324.post-80944578908503872522008-10-30T12:53:00.000-07:002008-10-30T13:05:56.550-07:00Dewberry FarmsI volunteered to go on the field trip with Taylor's class to Dewberry Farms yesterday. Wow what fun, but man... I was exhausted when it was over. All I could think about was a nap. However, by the time I got home I had less than 2 hours to pick up the house to go get Taylor for dance and be home for our church group to come over. I managed to grap a 20 minute nap, which I even had a dream. Woke up just in time for the alarm to go off and thought to myself I can manage to squeeze in another 17 minutes. Dozed off again and had another dream. I must have been tired! I took some pics at the field trip yesterday. Look at how much fun! I even bought an 18 lb pumpkin which we will carve tonight. I can hardly wait. It will be so much fun!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_WVZvhplX4MLuHpirjl0lIsSMV-oYfSKjOhezXsFCSAds_1dao6eJRkmFJq5Ar_DtuZ13JU_nCgW0IX7TuwYdIr_SPdJHvrGEPAC3e2J1pgZYuocHZJ-rk05bBYTCgNeg-SUyASwvB67u/s1600-h/DSCN1471.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5263039945538071298" style="DISPLAY: block;

Peaches did the ultrasound and found the baby and the heartbeat with no problem. There is was beating at 115 beats per minute. What an amazing thing to see. After all we have been through it was a huge relief to see that our baby is nice and cozy and here to stay. God is so good and faithful!!!! Here is his first photo.<br /><div></div><br /><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5260760263867948850" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 318px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAaj_Y1F7GmiRc5Oh6mHSzqO4QfiyC_W3ndL2ZwfsxZ-HAtiW02Hxp1xVJdg4JLNLQvlqVTSxcSRRhfYptHGy_SIH5WLoFAMUFiRCpJAp_HpAsy1YzgCHv8zOlwi15QsYdWaSSATmcYT8b/s320/scan0003.jpg" border="0" /></div>Mandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12602114933767693210noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9047044820932569324.post-40041872603677035242008-10-12T07:50:00.000-07:002008-10-12T08:04:29.071-07:00How did this happen????<div>OK... so I am still in complete shock here! The past month has been crazy for us. Started with Ike on September 12th. Then Nick turned the big 3-0! So... I decided to take him to Lake Charles to play a little black jack for his birthday last weekend. While there I started feeling so sick on Sunday. I was thinking what is wrong with me? I thought maybe it was the crawfish bisque I ate, which btw... was delicious! I wanted to just stay in the bathroom all day Sunday and Monday. Then... Monday evening went grovery shopping and thought to myself... hmmm... maybe I should grab a pregnancy test. As I was checking out the lady bagging my stuff said, "Are you pregnant?" Of course I was thinking to myself... heck no I am not... there is NO WAY I am!!! I was feeling silly even buying that dang test. So... got home and decided I would just wait a while to test. It was stupid to waste my money in the first place. The next day happened to be October 7th. Which for me is a very special day. 9 years ago on this day my honey proposed to me. Also... it happened to be our dating anniversary before getting married. So... 13 years later here I am talking to my friend on my cell saying... girl I really just don't feel good. She said have you tested. Well.... no... there is no WAY I am pregnant... that is just wasting a perfectly good test. But... when I got home I decided what the heck... I will go ahead and throw $5 down the toilet and to my suprise it was positive! WHAT??? How did this happen. It has now been almost 2 years since we started trying to have a baby. We have lost two last year and gone through many tests just for the Doctor to say our chances are slim to none. I am still in shock but so thrilled. So far everything looks good, but we need to continue to pray that this baby stays healthy and strong and will survive the 9 months. So... as of right now we are due June 16th, 2009. Which of course our daughter has a ballet recital on the 13th of June and we were invited to go on a cruise on June 8th to see our friend get married. I can definitely say the cruise will not happen and we might have to have our parents video our daughter in the recital. Oh well... I will take what I can get. I am so thrilled I can hardly stand it!!! Here is a picture of my tests from Tuesday the 7th and Thursday the 9th! WOOHOO!!!! Thank you Jesus for our little miracle!!! Mext ultrasound is scheduled for October 23rd so please continue to pray for us and our baby until this day!<img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5256282659885089090" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiB-khMKLT8N8t0i13jd6LClDKcDF505tLUYgbT0jDqRDpvLVEu8A4XybBzIfklt_WLxQ9voZ1OmdT9NQivZQn87Av50UGtJIghBEbwi0nWagONyZW5OpqggLfLCWw6kpzuYcaHI-IbpWS/s320/DSCN1378.JPG" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5256282656339846450" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9eGcqtH-AaDdrQ5EfcdJhmXDc_DHWG3BYFIe4GK14H91aNK-o5VNrJZUrM0OL8MjwkHCi5RUd0sBSAQ4v5kyfo6L4oDeFiNiWY2nrembkc9BSGG758O8zCG2DxyLIFtpj4tdGSRibclfe/s320/DSCN1342.JPG" border="0" /></div>Mandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12602114933767693210noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9047044820932569324.post-12010453792799794982008-09-27T12:59:00.000-07:002008-09-27T13:01:15.059-07:00Nick turned the big 3-0!Well Nick has turned the big 3-0! He can no longer make fun of me for being an older woman. Thank goodness. I am throwing him a poker birthday party tonight since poker is his true love. Not sure where I fit in on that one. I will post some pictures from the shin dig after it is over.Mandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12602114933767693210noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9047044820932569324.post-82779080955432695182008-09-17T13:52:00.000-07:002008-09-17T14:07:32.263-07:00Hurricane Ike takes a strike!Where do I begin... Last week at this time my daughter decided she was going to get sick. Woke up Thursday morning with 101 fever. Of course who has to stay home with a sick baby... momma does. So I stayed home from work. Fortunately I was able to get a last minute appointment with her Dr. since all offices would be closed on Friday to prepare for Hurricane Ike. Sure enough she has strep throat. Good times. Thursday evening and Friday was prep time for the hurricane. Friday night my mom came over to stay the night. It was not a fun night. 10 pm try to sleep... 10:05 mom is snoring...10:10 daughter is snoring...10:15 Nick is snoring... me...no sleep... wind... noises outside... then at 11 our power is out... 1:30 metal grinding sound outside...Nick going outside to check on the metal grinding sound at 2am...mom and me standing at the back door yelling for him to come back inside...where is he???... noises...hurricane...not good...laying in bed...mom...you awake...yes... want to play cards...sure... So we decided there was no way we could sleep through this mess... lets play cards in the candlelight. After a good hour we decide to go back to bed. I really didn't sleep a wink. Just sat there and listened to all the horrible noises outside and hoped our house would stay in one piece. A few hours pass and Nick goes to check on things. The wind has changed directions... guess the eye of the storm passed. Nick comes back in... lost the tree out front. I think at this point he crawled into bed and was devestated. He loved his trees. We planted them when they were itty bitty and now they were big. The sun starts to come up and we get knocking on the door. Our neighbors check on us. We lost our gutters, tree and some of the shingles on our room... and power of course. Well... it is 5 days later and mom is still here. We have power. She doesn't. In-laws don't. Friends don't. We have had lots of visitors and life has been crazy. School is out all week. Boss called to say our building has a lot of damage and will not be able to be moved back into until the end of the year. What??? People will be without power and water for weeks. Major devestation all over Houston with people without places to live. This is sad. But... we are making the most of it. I hear there are great prices for flights out of IAH???? Wonder where we can go???Mandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12602114933767693210noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9047044820932569324.post-56865799322955183632008-09-11T08:10:00.001-07:002008-09-11T08:53:21.615-07:00Our vacation from our vacation...Well after 9 days of Disney World... we decided we need a vacation from our vacation. LOL! It just so happens we had already planned a trip to the new Secrets Maroma Beach in the Riviera Maya south of Cancun with our friends Nise and Jon. The week we were scheduled to go Hurricane Gustav was threatening both the Yucatan Peninsula as well as the Texas coast. Fortunately we did not cancel our plans because we were not affected much by Gustav. For two days we did get some killer waves, which went over our heads, but it made it more fun. All we did was float in the ocean, drink, float in the pool, drink, eat, drink, sleep, drink, swim, drink... you get the idea. What a beautiful place Maroma Beach was. By far the most beautiful beach we have ever stayed at. The room was AMAZING! We were upgraded to a swimout suite for free. It was so nice to have the pool right outside our room. They even had fresh flowers in our room upon arrival. I wish I was still there. Awwww... the life!

It is the most magical place on earth. I know I have too many pictures to post on this blog and it will be hard to pic my favorite ones. My favorite memories include Taylor riding Space Mountain 3 times. The first time she was scared and crying. The second time she said she was bored. The third time she said it was really fun...we made her ride in the very back. She also loved Splash Mountain. I think of all the rides this was her favorite. She would put her hands in the air for the big drop. I was so very proud of her being so brave. Of course we would always get soaked on this ride. One of my most favorite magical memories was taking Taylor to have lunch at Cinderella's Castle. She was in awe of being in her castle and seeing Cinderella and her friends. All the little girls made wishes on stars, however, Taylor said hers did not come true. She had wished to be turned into a mermaid. Really??? Couldn't she have wished for something that could be possible??? Oh... and the fireworks.... WOW!!! They were amazing! Thanks to Tour Guide Mike we found he perfect place to watch the fireworks. What a fabulous trip this was. Can't wait to go back. Jeff even asked me last night at small group... so how many days till we go to Disney is it? I was the one who was so excited and counting down and everyone looked at me like I was crazy. Now... after the trip they are ready for the countdown. Why couldn't they have played this game with me 2 months ago??? Guess we will have to go again!<br /><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dxekQ-msU8DCldezetSz_u3GFtdc-j5Z2fyIygVOysIwOEb9z16YHQN_BUOy7VndeU25_vogojv7BjLGbcVHg' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5244776133129506658" style="DISPLAY: block;

Was that really only one day??? Gosh... it feels like we were there for more than one day. I honestly don't even remember now it just seemed so long. We had some very cool moments at Animal Kingdom. The Safari ride was really cool to be able to see all the live animals. The Dinosaur ride was priceless... well the photo of our group was really what was priceless. There was definitely a look of terror on everyone's face. And my most proud moment was my sweet Taylor riding Expedition Everest 3 times. I have to say that this is really her first real rollercoaster and I was so scared that she would hate it with the big drop and even going backwards in the dark in the mountain. BUT... not my girl. She is obviously an offspring and me and my hubby... since we are thrill seekers.

The day starated with loads of laughter and some funny looks from people standing near us and ended with us being trapped inside Spaceship Earth after midnight at the very top. What an experience that was. We ended up walking down stairs to exit the ride. Now that I think about it the middle of the day was quite interesting as well. We had two people in our group, no names mentioned, that just couldn't handle Mission Space. Well...we did decide to go on the orange path and not the easy green side. Supposedly they have issues spinning in confined spaces. Wonder why??? They ended up worshipping the toilet for a little while. LOL! Sorry... Jeff and Claire... oops... we won't make you ride that one again.

After spending 9 days at Walt Disney World in Florida and 8 full days in the parks I knew that there was no way that I could have just one post on Disney World. So... I decided to create a post for each park. That seems to make the most sense. Man...we had the greatest time at Disney World. It was so much fun to share the experience with our friends Jeff and Claire and their 3 kids. What wonderful memories we have. It is so hard to pick our favorite park. Here are the highlights of the new Hollywood Studios...former MGM.<img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5229739396684507634" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgp8WmPoygGxKPJoEfHiITDYJ5o_t1Z0OS9TeUuf1E8F6JCQVHYUPUmpsdZBS1s_cZ-8xrZARxYVWf6bRDpwvhlzayiFm4FpSmCroAj02ndVggRcN6P9k5iBGk6b1OsG215XyVrTCHsAL0T/s320/DSCN0577.JPG" border="0" /><br />Me & Taylor on Disney's Magical Express from the airport to our resort.<br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5229740711513688450" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpjQ_Y1RT1XZlPorrK4Er0YDxP_nD8GPBHXZuXvLEQHxIMhiv-F49ZdJukkjsgIDrs5vlbJiDFU7Quz05YLGJ6-CnJ1IhVm4iO7a2aAoOyQTu5xV9gV72q41-KO87DHhPjMPAJzUuBvveL/s320/DSCN1088.JPG" border="0" /><br />Taylor posing in front of the Muppets Fountain right after seeing the Muppets 3D.<img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5229739432871242594" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEih7F3Vu9v-bkkQdtiSKsNlAMdBihtuEFM6788Cuyg0_QjZGgd9WICX7BNWXN7qrvAPIkOkbcKKbPD8WCvQhWBYFnREKm6dhO8ZVawN-yRaaEUGQH-Oh_wr0dmay0s7KpalV45PEsSyYPzf/s320/DSCN0627.JPG" border="0" /><br />Look...it is Mr. & Mrs. Incredible.

The first time was priceless. The look on her face was of complete terror. The good thing was while waiting for the ride we were chosen to receive one of the 2008 Year of a Million Dream giveaways. We were given dream fast passes for the day at the park. This was on day one of our trip and the first thing in the morning, so it started off great!!! The ride was scary even for adults. It would drop several stories in the dark and then immediately shoot up several stories and then not even slow down and drop immediately. It was different every time and at certain points of the ride the elevator doors would open and you could see out over the park.

I have to say that it ROCKED THE HOUSE. This was by far Nick's favorite ride. It is 4D aracade game and let's just say if you go to Hollywood Studios it is a must and not just to ride but to get there immediately when the park opens and get a fast pass. Or...the line will be 2 hours long! Of course having me as everyone's personal tour guide made it where we hardly had to wait more than 10 minutes for any ride. Heck... if you need a tour guide I would be more than happy to join you on your vacation if you pay my way.

I can hardly believe that we leave in less than 24 hours. We or should I say I have been planning this trip for months now and keep repeating the commercial for Disney where the kid says..."We are too excited to sleep." As a matter of fact that commercial just came on a few minutes ago and I had to turn around and smile at Nick. Our friends Jeff and Claire and their 3 children, Brooklyn, Braiden and Talon are meeting us there on Saturday. They are in our small group from church. It should be a blast for us and our kids to have friends experience this with us. We can hardly wait. I will be posting our favorite pics when we return from our 9 day Magical Disney Vacation!Mandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12602114933767693210noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9047044820932569324.post-24940033914699793912008-07-17T20:32:00.000-07:002008-12-09T01:09:34.956-08:00A Visit to the A Teams beach houseWe had the pleasure of visiting our friends Amberly and Aaron at their beach house last weekend.

We went to the Williams house for a swim, barbecue and of course tons of fireworks. We had a great time and the kids LOVED the fireworks (all 3 hours of them). No need to even leave the house, which was really nice. Thank you to Chris and Kelly for opening up your house to welcome us over and to Jane and Paul for letting us take a swim in their pool. We had a blast!!!<br /></div><div align="center"><br /></div><p align="center"></p><div align="center"><br /></div><p align="center"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5219541942488579458" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5KiW9Jodh32FXVvq0W-5sKlnF27wubuPbHAr1XDBLUpL91kvCazNNe6ts-1yjXRYt4wbIO9_0TTFJ8vfOdlqyoHZo-wNP972n_9bZAIADfVS1ZT7X5b_AOL-fnn6gLrdkDsvyKb6giXaE/s320/DSCN0488%5B1%5D" border="0" />Ben is posing for the camera.
