Happy 3rd Birthday Taylor

Today was Taylor's 3rd birthday party. We had the party at Mark's mom and dads community pool. I was hoping it wouldn't rain on us and the weather turned out beautiful! We had a great time of just sitting around and talking...and letting the grandparents look out for the little ones swimming.

I only snapped 3 pictures...i know...if you want to see more, you are going to have to go check out Tami's blog.

2008- Cruise to Bahama's

I just got back from a cruise this past Thursday. We went on the Carnival Sensation. It was a short trip to the Bahama's. We have been there so many times, but we just needed a vacation from reality for a few days. It was so relaxing!!

Here is our very big room that all 3 of us shared.
Eating...what we do best
Val's home away from home. ...she is a Seaweed Wrap goddess
Life boat drill....gotta do it..You never know when you are going to hit an ice berg

Poured down rain the first 2 hours of our cruise
We were stranded in between the bathrooms for the whole storm....wasn't pleasant
Our first stop was in Freeport. You can see the storm coming in slowly.

Our second port was Nassau. We have been to Nassau so many times that we wanted to do something different. So we decided to go find Anna Nicole's grave stone. We finally found a taxi driver to drive us out to the cemetery, but a policewoman who was stationed in the cemetery went crazy on us. She started yelling to the taxi driver for bringing us out there...needless to say we were not allowed out of the taxi. As we were driving out, he pointed the grave to us. Its supposedly one of these and the one next to it is her son's grave.

I was picked to sing Summer Nights...thank goodness i have no picture or video.

2008- June Disney trip

Another trip to Disney!!! We all go except for Tami, Mark and Morgan. They do not have annual passes and so they got to stay home and work...SUCKERS!!!




Someone looks tired!I see a plumbing career in her future..

Nick- our little Jedi


NAP TIME!

My work participates in "take your sons and daughters to work" every year. Since I obviously have no kids, but I want to get out of doing work all day, I bring one of Todd's kids. This year was Nick's turn.



We went out to lunch with my two co workers and their sons. Nicks new friends are Theodore and Cameron.

2008- Girls trip to Disney for the Princess Party

All of us girls went down to Disney for the Pirates and Princess Party.

Delaney and Taylor were so excited while getting dressed up!



Yay! We made it :)
Here's mom waving at us while we are riding the Aladdin Magic Carpets


This little pirate stopped Delaney and wanted her to be his queen.

Meeting the princesses was the highlight of the night.





It was the highlight of the older girls too!!








The clock struck midnight and Taylor couldn't hold out any longer. She was falling asleep just standing still and she also fell asleep when grandma took her to the "potty". We changed her and and as soon as she layed down in the stroller, the rest is history.
Delaney on the other hand was wide awake!! She tried to fake sleep but she is not very convincing with a grin over her face.
