Pictures of my trip.



This is all of us at Magic Kingdom. Is the castle not Beautiful? We went to Magic Kingdom on Monday. Below is a picture of the show that was on the Castle stage. Magic Kingdom is a lot of fun and tomorrow we are going there again for Mickey's Christmas party, were it snows on Main Street.



Every year we try on different hats and have our picture taken, Mom and Ruth Ella took the picture.


(Left to right) Madison, Stephen, Rebekah, Elizabeth, Jonathan, Me William, Daddy, Wesley, and James.

Above William, Wesley, Jonathan, and Stephen had their picture taken with Pooh and Tigger. This picture was taken in United Kingdom at Epcot. To the left the girls got there picture taken with Aurora. It was taken in France. In case you did not know Epcot has a thing were you can travel all around the world. We went to 11 countries in one afternoon! We watched a movie about Canada and Martin Short spoke about the different areas, and did you know he is from Canada? We also watched a movie about France, I didn't know how pretty France is.


This is Epcot and there is a ride in that big ball looking thing called Spaceship Earth. Below is a picture of Mom, Ruth Ella, and Me. If you look closely the ball thing is behind us. I hope you enjoyed the pictures I will try to post more another time.

Disney News

Hello, We went to Magic Kingdom and we had a blast. We took Jonathan on some rides he has never been on. Our favorite was Splash Mountain. It gets really dark then it drops you, I road in a row with Jonathan and his face was priceless. We always pick partners and Jonathan has been mine 3 years in a row, I love having him as a partner. I think Jonathan likes Disney the most. We road this one ride called Walt Disney's Carousel of Progress, it was all about the progress from the out house to indoor pluming, and all the different stoves... it's amazing how the times have changed. The Carousel had such a catching tune. Space Mountain was closed:( witch last year we road 12 times or more:) this year we had a really good spot to see the parade, and we saw a really good show at the castle. Main street is so pretty and has all these little old shops, it reminds me of all my old classic movies. We are staying here in the condo on Thursday so I am going to post the pictures from the week so far. Oh yeah today we got some Christmas shopping done, tomorrow we are going to Epcot. So, I will have a lot to blog on Thursday.

16 days

I am so excited Sixteen days till Florida. I liked our RV trip better, but its just something about taking some time off. Its nice to chill in the room of by the pool. We always pack card games and this year we have a new game to bring Dutch Blitz, If you are wondering what this game is, its a card game that we played at the Pauls' house. It is a fast card game, and so much fun. We also are learning the card game Rook. it is a bit harder for me. In fact the first night we played my dad had to call our Uncle Bill to ask a question. Dad Said Uncle Bill is really good at Rook and you don't want to play with him unless your pretty good. So that's all I have to say for now. Oh Rebekah said its 98 more days till our trip to see the pauls.

Where have you Been?

You may ask why is this post called (where have you been)? Well a lot of people asked were have you been? I am still here on the earth (physically) yet my head is some where else. Mowing season is starting back so my head goes for a loop.


To bring you up to speed we took a trip. It went really good. If you want some fun than spend time with your family, rent an RV. The one thing that was bad (other then getting stuck) was only ONE BATHROOM for 11 people, we were knocking on the door a lot. It seems that every one had to go at the same time. Mt. Rushmore was awesome and Canada was cold, and so much fun. The family we visited the Pauls' were so much like us, only big difference is they take care of farm animals, and we take care of dogs. While there Jennifer taught us how to milk cows. I helped Megan with some chores and was thankful for the job I have at home. It was much harder than I thought. Way to go Megan I can't wait till you and your family come to visit, and I can show you my work. Megan is my age, and one of the first things I asked is when your family goes out do people start counting y'all? She said yes, it was so neat to know were not the only ones. Also it was neat to see Megan, Jennifer, and Kerri make two plates (1 for their little brother and 1 for their self) it didn't make me feel so funny. So many times people look at my sisters and I funny for making 2 plates instead of 1, we see this as part of having a servants heart. The Penners friends of the Pauls' invited us to their house, they have 8 kids in their family. They were so nice, and we hope to see them next time we go to Canada. On the way home our generator broke, so we were stuck in Grand Forks ND for a few days. It was nice to have some down time(when I mean down time I mean a time to sit still and not get sick.) I got motion sickness so I had to be on meds (Dramamine) with the other 2. What do you mean other 2? Well Madison came down with strep right before we left, and Elizabeth came down with something. Also while at the Pauls' we got the throw up bug. What a trip, really to be honest I liked the RV trip better then going to Disney sorry Mickey:(

Mean while its good to be home call me Dorothy there's no place like home. I am reading a book called Hope Rising. One of my moms friends knows how much I love horses, and said I should read this book. So far it is great, I will let you know more when I'm finished. Before we left I read a 300 page book on The sinking of the Titanic. Great book if you like history read it, there were things that I had know idea happened. I cried a lot, so have something to dry your tears on. Last week was spring break for the schools, meaning we got back in the swing of things fast at work. It is so nice outside, the weather is rainy some days and sunny the next. I'm sorry for just now posting something. You see there is not enough time in the day, or I could say I don't type fast so I don't post a lot. OR truthfully maybe I'm a bit lazy and I'm a procrastinator. Whatever you want to call it I will try to post something sooner next time.

South Carolina trip

Hello,

Well, I am back I had such a good time. We got to see my Aunt Anna, Uncle Brett, my Cuz Brandon, Cuz Christina & last but not least Cuz Andrew. Well we started this grand adventure on Monday.I went with My Grandma Charlotte, Aunt Karen... well Elizabeth came too. We left around 10:00 and arrived about 5:00. Aunt Anna cooked spaghetti we ate with them, then went Christina's room and talked for 2 hours, just catching up. Then we went to the hotel. Christina stayed home from school so she can hang with us for the day. We went to see Brandon's school pictures, they were in the library. They were very good, I thought . We went over the dam it was the largest man made lake. Christina said if you go to the bottom you can see farm land and old cemeteries. Then off to the MALL, yay......... by the way there mall was the bomb. Columbia I love your MALL!!! While we were in the mall we decided to go try on PROM DRESSES cause me & Elizabeth will probably not go to a prom. (unless dad comes oh' what fun) lol! So we tried them on, when we came out this lady said did they fit alright. I said no. After that we left and went to Carolina pottery. Christina & I found a chair and laid on it the whole time. We went to there house to eat, we ate Bojangles. When we were cleaning up we noticed that Brandon did not eat his potatoes, cause he did not have a fork. lol (It's OK Brandon I would have done the same thing.) then we went to watch Christina sing. She did very good. After that we went to there apartment to talk and say our good byes., we had to leave in the morning. At 11:00am we parted from Columbia, South Carolina. We did not get home till 6:15, we ran in to some traffic in North Carolina. If you have never driven through the mountains you should.We all so taught Grandma Charlotte & Aunt Karen how to text, they are getting better. We came home to find out we were having a camp out in the back yard. We said our good byes to Grandma Charlotte & Aunt Karen. I'll tell you later how the camp out went. So good night.
