How fun is this...



Only 201 more days to go! I can't wait. It'll be my 19th trip and John's second. We're staying at Disney’s Beach Club Villas in a cute little studio and within walking distance to MGM/Hollywood Studios and Epcot. I'm loving all the planning that goes into a Disney trip. This is my first time buying the Disney Dining Plan and I've been spending time picking out my favorite restaurants and trying to figure out how to fit them all in!

In other news...John's birthday was this past Monday. And in honor of the special occasion I took the day off and got a facial at Elizabeth Grady! LOL! My very first one and I'm hooked! My skin felt fantastic and looked amazing. Then it was off to babysit the cuties and wash my hair (had NO idea how bad it would be after the facial). John got out of work around 2:30 and went home to get ready for his big dinner out. I took Gillian and Emily, shopped for birthday cards (I know, I know...last minute me!) and we picked him up and went to everyone's favorite Mexican restaurant for a dinner filled with lots of laughs. We had such a fun time. We all shared three desserts that John picked and the girls were good and tried everything. Because we're doing the Disney trip this year, we set a $25 budget for birthday gifts...John got a $25 Lowe's card to add to the one from Christmas. He's going to have a nice little shopping spree for tools soon!

More news...my favorite kids are getting a new sibling this fall! My cousin is pregnant again...and she's letting me come along for the ride this time. I'm going to get to go to a few appointments and the ultrasounds! I'm not going to be having one myself, so this way I'll at least get to experience some of what happens. She also made me promise that if she has twins (which run in our family and we are overdue for them!) that I would take one of them. ;) No problem!

Last Saturday I got to spend the day with some friends from NY and CT scrapping away at a retreat! They all came up for the weekend and I joined them for the day. It was so good to see them all: Tracy, Kendra, Chrissy and Fran. I met them all at a retreat several years ago and we've kept in touch and try to get together when we can. Love spending time with them!

And last but not least...the new toy has arrived:

I finally broke my phone and no more flip phones for me. I'm just too hard on them. So we'll see how this works for me.

Let's see...I think that brings me up to date. I've got to upload my recent photos and share a few...I'll try to do that soon. Hope everyone is getting ready for spring!
