DISNEY WORLD!!!!!

So we planed the trip for my birthday. Best birthday ever! We had never been to Disney World, and now we can't wait to go back! We had such a wonderful time. We made some amazing memories! It was fun that CJ was big enough to go on all the rides! Eva was sad that she wasn't tall enough yet but she was happy when the big kids would go and get on a ride and she would get an ice cream! Between fast passes and child swap we were able to get just about everything in that we wanted to do this trip and we were only there 3 days! We only made it to two parks. We did 2 days at Magic Kingdom and one day at Hollywood Studios. We decided on these two parks after talking to a few "cast members" and a few guests from the resorts that had been there for a week or so. We were at the park for more than 12 hours each day by the time we made it back to the hotel each night we all just crashed. I got my Happy Birthday button and it makes someone feel so special for everyone to tell you happy birthday, so I wore it all three days! The fireworks at the end of the night were magical! Colt and I loved that even for our 9 year old the whole Disney experience is still filled with magic and wonder! It will be a sad day when it is no longer magical but for now it still is and we have a handful of younger babies to share the magic with for years to come!!! Now to share some pictures of our great trip!

Miami #3

Home is where our family is! Right now home is Miami and I love it! It has been a little while since I decided to give up all control of my life to God. I can tell you that ever since I did this there has never been a situation that I have really stressed about. I realize that my life has a purpose and a plan and most importantly is that the one who is running the show knows it all from the beginning to the end and He loves me. With this assurance I am able to see my life and the people I come in contact with in a whole new light, "it was meant to be like this" is my motto. This has changed my life forever. I know now more than ever that we were sent to Miami for a reason. I have met this wonderful woman. Well I really met her our first Sunday here at church but spent the day with her and her daughter at the beach. She shared with me her life story and I was in awe. I was amazed by her faith and strength. As we talked and shared our stories she often told me that I was an inspiration to her. I felt there was no way that could be true, I have not been through such hard trials and come through them like she had. She has reminded me that friendship can blossom in an instant. 

We had a fantastic day together! She took us to Crandon Park in Key Biscayne, FL. That is such a fun area. There was the beach, a playground, a splash pad, a snack bar, and on the weekends there is a carousel. We spent the morning on the beach talking all about homeschool (she is a veteran homeschool mom with one in college, one in HS and one in 1st grade (talk about inspiration)). The kids had a blast playing with her daughter and other kids on the beach, swimming and building sand castles. After we had lunch (still hate eating at the beach, no matter how hard you try everything always ends up covered in sand.) the kids went back to swim. After a few minuets we heard Bobby and Eva yell and come running out of the water. "SOMETHING STABBED ME!", Bobby yelled. "SOMETHING BIT ME!" , cried, Eva. As I was inspecting their wounds, my friend suggested we take them to the life guard tower. After talking to and showing the "wounds" to life guard he confirmed our suspicions, it was a jelly fish! He poured vinegar on their skin to stop the stinging. Needless to say that beach time was over. We walked over and played at the park for a little while, until the kids were ready to move on. Up next was the splash pad. We all had fun in the water. We had a day full of fun in the sun and wonderful conversation. 

I love all the people we get the privilege of meeting and getting to know. I love all the places we get to go. I love all the experiences we get to have.

After playing for so long at the splash pad the water started to
pool on the grass near by. The mud puddle was calling
their names!

Happy Birthday To EVA!

Our little Eva the Diva turned 4 years old a few weeks ago! Her little mind is full of things to say. She wants to know and learn everything. The questions are never ending. She wants to do everything on her own and everything her older siblings do. She is small but has a huge personality! She knows what she wants and if she doesn't get she is sure to let you know. She is a spit fire and everyone sees her coming! We love her so much and can't imagine our family with out her!




We love you baby girl!!!!
