the news on the street...


it is official, we are going to florida. thanks to my lovely older sister audrey and my even lovelier and younger looking mother ruthann. thanks so much you guys!! i feel like i can finally be excited for christmas vacation. my family has not been all together for 12 years...i think it is about time. i can't wait to play in the ocean, stay up late laughing and playing games, playing some ultimate frisbee...and maybe just maybe some basketball and volleyball??? my kids have cousins they have never met...so that in itself is going to be exciting. while i am not looking forward to a long plane trip with 4 kids, one being only 4 months old, it will be exciting for issy because she has never been on an airplane. so...this being said, i better get to work losing that last 20lbs. so i can fit into shorts and a swimming suit!! wish me luck!

What a fun and WARM destination! I guess you'll just have to pretend to build a snowman over Christmas break. That's so exciting, the countdown is on! Do you have a paper-chain or do you want us to make one for you? (we're making one to count down until our Christmas break also) Yipeeee!

Hey that is a good idea. I will have to get on that. I used to do those with my older kids when they were little. We made paper chains for everything!! Poor issy, i never do that for her. I think I will though!
