Disney 2010

I'm in my post vacation depression, but that's only because we had SO MUCH fun!

I could tell you all about it, but I think a picture is worth a 1,000 words.

5 days 'til Florida!

Yep, that's it. I packed my first suitcase today (for the girls).
Checked out the 10-day forcast on weather.com. Unfortunately, it's supposed to be in the 80's and sunny.
Such a shame.
Also, the word I got from Jim is that it's a go for the shuttle launch on Monday.
We're so bummed.

Maybe we should just stay home.

NOT!!

Bleeding Heart

This morning as I was going through Cecelia's backpack I found a pouch (that didn't belong to us) with money in it.
I called CeCe in to the kitchen and asked who she got the pouch with money from. Honestly, I assumed that she traded silly bands for some poor child's lunch money.
Her eyes filled with water and she told me that it was so-and-sos's. I asked why she had so-and-so's pouch of money and she said that so-and-so didn't have anything but water to drink, no milk, no juice, no NOTHING. And, so-and-so only had one pair of pants. (this is a friend on the bus).
Then, she told me that it was her money that she was going to give to so-and-so. I asked about the pouch and she said that her friend gave it to her, she would put money in, and then give back.
My eyes filled up too and I gave her a BIG hug and told her how nice and generous and loving I thought she was.
The whole thing just made my day.

Bill's 34th Birthday









My hubby turned 34 on Sunday and completed his 2nd marathon. Wow.
Somehow he managed to train for the marathon all summer even though he/we was so busy doing other things.
He takes care of the girls weekend nights while I work, instead of hanging out by a bon fire, BBQing, or doing anything fun like the rest of the world.
He does yardwork as well as housework. He makes dinners and gives baths. He mows and organizes the garage.
He is too good for me - and I mean that.
He works hard and is very successful at work. He is patient and a good person.
I really love this guy.
Happy Birthday, baby.
