I am not making good on my promise it would seem...it's just very hard to find the time to sit down and write!
I am exceedingly happy that vacation is a mere 6 days away! I know I will not want to come home at the end of the trip. I suppose that's the only downside to going....having to come home. Silly me, at least we are getting to go! Haven is chattering about it and wanting to look online at all the rides, even though she has already been to Disney World twice! I'm not sure how much she remembers from the last time we went, but there are definitely certain things that stick out in her mind. I think she will enjoy it even more this time because she can ride almost everything now that she's a little taller! This week will be hectic trying to get everything ready to go before Sunday. There always seems to be a million things to do when you're trying to get ready to leave for a week. I think I enjoy the preparation as much as the trip. It's so exciting getting everything ready to go!
Haven will be graduating Kindergarten in just 5 short weeks. I really can't believe how fast this year has flown by. The girls are wearing pink caps/gowns-how adorable! I can't wait to see her walk down the aisle and get her little diploma. I'm sure I will cry buckets! It has been so good for her to go to school this year. She is like a little sponge absorbing every drop of information she can get. It's been fun to see her learning new things and getting to be so big! She'll be 5 on June 3rd, which almost seems impossible! My, how the years just fly by. She has brought so much joy to our lives, I can hardly remember what life was like before she came along. Most uninteresting, I suppose! She definitely adds a unique element to the mix, so spunky and full of life! She acts like a grownup half the time, always crossing her legs and talking with her hands. She is growing up so fast. In a lot of ways, I'm glad....but sometimes I just miss my little baby girl. But that's just how it goes, they have to grow up sometime! I'm just thankful that she is healthy and happy : )
Aaron is still as busy as a bee, putting in 10 and 12 hour days! It's just that time of year, when he leaves early and gets home late. After owning this business for so many years, I've gotten used to it by now. He's home a lot more in the winter, but the work is slower. I'm always thankful for a busy summer. He is doing a lot of big projects this year like ponds, sidewalks and landscape lighting. He really loves tapping in to his creative side! I'm always amazed at his ability to learn something new and just do it. He has taught himself so much about landscaping. He really is very talented and I think he likes to toot his own horn from time to time, heehee. Well, not really, but he always has pictures in case anyone is interested in what he's been working on! I guess we're all a little proud of ourselves at one time or another.
I forgot to mention it in my last post, but my Strawberry Shortcake DVD's arrived in the mail! It was exactly how I remembered it. I made a big deal about it with Haven so she would want to watch them with me. She was like "what's this?" She's only ever seen the new SS, so she was a little confused. I told her it was the old SS that I used to watch as a kid. She watched a couple episodes with me, but I just don't think it was as interesting as her new stuff! I rather liked it for the simple fact that it took me back to my childhood, and I like anything that does that! Ah, well, it will probably collect dust on the shelf, but I'll know that anytime I want to be 5 again, it'll be there waiting for me : ) I am a silly sentimental fool, I daresay!
This is it for now, much to do! I'll try to post again before we leave and I'll have lots of pictures when we get back!
