We took a long weekend trip to the beach this weekend. We were only there from Thursday to Monday but it was a nice trip! We did not plan to go to the beach this year since we went to Disney. However, the kids--mostly Emma--kept asking to go to the beach. So....we decided to take a small trip. It was wonderful because I know that she understood the ocean and beach this time. She was sooooo excited. However, she didn't want to play in the ocean by herself so mommy and daddy had to spend hours in the ocean riding the waves with her. She loved that, but only if we were holding her. Joshua and Tanner hardly ever even got out of the ocean. I think they had more fun this year than they ever have! I love going to the beach with my family. It's just one of those trips that I look forward to every year!

Vacation Bible School

This week the kids have went to VBS at Potter's Clay. Tonight they got their faces painted. Emma looked so cute I couldn't help but take her picture!

Good Friends, Good Times!

Kim-front , Toshia-back, Melissa-front, Patti-back
This week I spent some time working for Victor. Unfortunately I heard that a friend of mine from Laurens died that weekend. So........the only phone number I remember from my childhood (other than my own) is Melissa's. Needless to say she doesn't live there, but her parents do. I called them and left a message for them to have her call me and I left my number. She called and we talked about the friend that had passed away and since I was working in Simpsonville that week, we planned to meet for lunch! She also contacted a couple of our other friends and we all four met for lunch on Friday! I have not seen Kim or Patti in 15 years!! It was great to see them. Melissa and I have seen each other a couple of times. We were the best of friends in elementary school and middle school. Melissa lived across the street from me growing up. However, we lived in the country and across the street meant 1/2 mile up the road! LOL!! We are planning to not wait so long and try to get together every couple of months or so!

Magic Kingdom- Day 2

Day 2 was just as magical as Day 1! We did many different things this day. The boys of our family rode Space Mountain about 5 times that day! They loved all the big rides this year. I can't wait until Emma can ride them all with us! For about 2 months before our trip, all the boys wanted was a turkey leg. So......after about a 45 minute wait, Daddy came through and got them the turkey leg! They loved it! These are memories that will be with us for the rest of our lives!
