Epcot in 37 iPhone Shake it Photos :)

For Leish. One day. 37 photos. All taken with my iphone. Shown here in chronological order.

I am home. My email box is bursting at the seams. I love my iphone, but the problem with taking it on vacation with you is every night I would check my email and see them piling up. With the crappy internet connection at the hotel, I was unable to respond to many of them….sooooooo…today is an email kinda day. If you are waiting on one from me. Expect it soon.

AND…to my contest entries…I still haven’t uploaded all my images. Give me a couple of days

One More Sleep

I saved the best Christmas gift for last…

Tomorrow we leave for Disneyworld. I will be out of the office until January 20th. This past year, we learned a lot of things. My mom being diagnosed with bladder cancer was a very powerful reminder that life is too short to put off having fun and enjoying each other as a family. Sooooo….my entire family decided to go to Disneyworld this year as our present to each other. It’s been in the works since Easter(a very long time to keep a secret) and it was a complete surprise to the kids who have worked themselves into a bit of a nonsleeping frenzy(Georgia was up until 11pm last night). Speaking of FUN–HOW ABOUT A CONTEST WHILE I AM GONE????? Guess how many images I take over the 11 day holiday. The person who guesses closest will receive a gift from me!! A box of my favorite things(just call me Oprah). To guess, just leave a comment with your total(I’ll include iphone images in my total–I plan on redoing Alicia’s challenge with my iPhone while I am gone). And, finally…a little fun in an empty box

* just a note about my mom’s bladder cancer…she is doing great and all of her treatments should be finished by the end of the summer. Thank you all for your love, support, comments and emails during this time. We both appreciate it more than you will ever know.

Another New York Family

Whilst in New York, I met this lovely family who welcomed a beautiful little girl after three gorgeous and sporty boys! Do you know what the best thing will be for this little girl?? She will be fast and strong because she has to be in order to keep up with her brothers, but she will also have three protectors on the playground. These boys showered this little girl with love!! I can see that her future suitors will have a long line to wade through before they are able to reach her They fought over who’s turn it was to hold her. I love big families Makes me wish for more kids!!

I love my job. I say that all the time, but it’s true. This family was so relaxed and genuine and easily themselves that it made my job so easy. And SPORTY. I have met my fair share of sporty families but I think this family tops them all!! I love that they were willing to run around the soccer field and play–even while carrying the baby!!! And, while they were sporty, they were also incredibly loving. And happy. Truly happy. That makes me truly happy, too

I just wanted to say that I love New York. Until you have been there, you might not understand how wonderful New Yorkers truly are….but everytime I am there, I am struck by how friendly they all are. It’s a big city that feels like a community. And THAT is hard to find. While there, I got to visit with my friend, Chris. I am considering going back to New York in October to visit him and see his lovely wife in Mary Poppins on broadway. I think I will bring my kids Sooooo…any New Yorkers interested in a fall session in 2010?? Give me a shout!!!
