Vacation

Eat, swim and play! That's what vacation is all about. Bubba Gumps was a fav. Sunsets, pool and sand was the delight of the week.

When Grammie got Grace and Luke the boogie boards Paige told Luke "Surfs up, Bub!" Everyone had a good laugh. Vacations are good for the soul.

John's Pass ~ The boardwalk. We happened to be there when one of the fishing boats just came in from a big catch. We watched the fisherman filet the fish and feed the extras to the pelicans. This was a fun thing to watch. We wanted to go on a dolphin watch but the waves were a little more than we would have like to try. Maybe next time. :)

DISNEY!!! Did someone say DISNEY!!! Thanks to Uncle Rob, we got to visit the land of Magic for a day. We had a blast! Luke is in the Buzz Lightyear ride ~ a favorite!

Paige, for the last two years, has dreamed of sitting on the princess' laps and getting her picture taken. She finally got her wish. We waited in line for over 75 mins. to see the long awaited Fairies. We got to see Siver Mist, Fawn and, of course, Tinker Bell. Wow! What a wait.

Downtown Disney. We had alot fun with this one ~ shopping! Great ice cream from the Ghiradeli chocolate.

Paige is 5 Years Old!!!!

Paige is 5!!!! My littlest one is leaving her preschool years and entering a new phase of her life. I feel bittersweet feelings. I love seeing her grow and learn and cannot wait to see the finished product of her childhood. On the other hand I am going to miss all of the times I held her in my arms and felt her soft baby skin and smelled her sweet smell. I do not have any little babies anymore but I love the blessings that the Lord has placed in my care.


Paige is eating off of the special plate that celebrates how special she is. We celebrate every special occasion with this plate.




Sisters! What a special kind of love!

The traditional birthday pose! How they are growing!!!!!

Each year we try to pick out that special birthday cake and attempt to come close to the original product. :) Sometimes we accomplish this ~ Sometimes we come close. Any way we accomplish a tradtion and time spent making something together. I hope these will become sweet memories!
