I am usually a lurker,but your trip report caught my eye,and I read it over the last several days,as well as your previous trip report,and my heart has been touched by your story.I don't even know you but I just wanted to reach out and hug you for your loss.
Thank you for reminding all of us how precious every day and moment is that we spend with our loved ones.The pictures of Levi are amazing,and you capture so much of him in them.His eyes just mezmorize me,and he is trylt a little angel. Your daughter Isabelled is very cute as well,I just love how enthusiastic she always seems to be about each new outfit she tried on.I am so impressed with all the people here on DIS who care so much about each other,and I am amazed at thier talents,and yours as well,yo sew clothes by hand..wow!
Anyway,just wanted to introduce myself to you and I hope you and your family had a wonderful trip .I can't wait to read all about it! I will always think about your little Levi and it will be a reminder to me to never take my loved ones and the little moments in our lives for granted again. Thank you,and may God bless you and your family. Lisa

Thanks for reading and posting , Lisa. I hope you stick around.

waiting patiently

Ok, ok.....

Hey my friend....I can't wait to hear more juicy details!!!!

LOL. ...I am glad you guys stopped for the night. Drive safe!!! Oh and tell Matt I bet those 5 extra pounds are NOT even noticable!!!!!!

I think I gained too! Ugghhhhhh......

YAY!!! Juicy details! lol. Probably better to have stopped for the night even though we are all very anxiously awaiting for you to return and begin your report. So glad to hear from you though and know that all is well. Sounds like you at least ate well while there which is half the fun!

Hey! Yep, some good food! Matt's favorite part! After that it's Eeyore and Buzz's spin! LOL!

Day 1

Isabelle and I woke up Friday morning and began getting ready for school. When we were brushing our teeth, I noticed her eye looked red and puffy. Upon closer inspection, I found the culprit.

A TICK!

Yep, a tiny tick had embedded itself into her lash line on the left eye! I held her down to remove it, but the reddness was seriouslly concening me, b/c I kept thinking it was infected. I ended up taking Isabelle home with me at 1PM, to try to get her into the doctor. Since the doctor was on lunch break, as was his staff, we packed up to leave, showed my parents around (they house and animal sat for us) and headed out to meet Dane and Farrah.

On the way, I got in touch with the doctor, he didn't seem concerned, and didn't need to see her.

We met Dane and Farrah at a McDonald's and headed South!!!!

After waiting, somewhat patiently, to cross the bridge into KY (Some silly person made a trailer hitch for a trailer that it couldn't handle. Literally, the hitch was bent into a "u".) we topped of our tanks in Henderson. I gave Farrah her make-up and she gave me the croc flip flops she picked up for me.

And we were off again!

More soon!

Love you guys!

 

[twob4him]

Yaaaa! You started!!!

 

[crzy4mickey]

I one hand i'm so glad you're on your way home because we get to hear all about your trip. On the other hand sadly for you your trip has ended...but it is always nice to come home to your own bed!

 

[jessica52877]

So glad to hear you are back safely! Can't wait for more!

 

[MousekaMaddi]

[hlrababy]

Aw poor Isabelle! I hate ticks!!!! Yuck!! I had to hold Hollie down in the tub one day to pull one that had gotten in her head!! Ewwww!!

I am glad you started!!! I can't wait to see some pics!!

 

[Adi12982]

So glad to see you are back, can't wait to hear all about it.

So sorry about Isabelle and the tick. . . poor baby!

 

[mrsksomeday]

I hope Isabelle's eye didn't bother her on the trip. That is scary to find a tick there. Thanks for giving us an installment. I can't wait to read more!

 

[aksunshine]

hi everyone! We are home and I'm working on unpacking and some of isabelle's homework we didnt get finished. I'm hoping to get up some more and pictures after work tomorrow. Matt is actually planning to go to work in about three hours!

I got isabelle's class lollipops! I'll try to get apicture of them too!

 

[ehstrojette]

Oh great... another TR I will be stuck to everyday waiting on pins and needles to read

J.K I am so excited to hear your TR and see all the pics of your family. Now to get my pins and needles ready

 

[heath-and-javens-mom]

Glad you made it home safe...I know I was there, BUT I will be reading along

 

[Seewhatimesdone]

Hi Alicia I just stumbled across your trip report and I wanted to tell you how much your story touched me. You have a very beautiful family. I hope you enjoyed your trip!

 

[MsFGIT]

Hello. Today (9/7) I found a little laminated card with your username and picture on it, so I came to disboards to find you. I found the card on the bench in the lobby in the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique in the Magic Kingdom. I read the first few pages of this report and I am now under the impression that this is some kind of cosmic connection! Were you even at the BBB today? How did I happen to come across this card? I'm not terribly familiar with the ways of the disboards so maybe this card is something that all you disboarders have and I'm just out of the loop? I am so puzzled, so we must discuss this! Haha! I hope you enjoyed your trip!

 

[Dylan_&_Blake's_mom]

So Glad to see that you made it home safely. Poor Isabelle with the tick. Those things give me the creeps. I've never heard of one in that location before, that's pretty crazy. Lukily all sounds like it turned out ok though. I can't wait to hear all about the trip. It will be neat to be reading yours and Farrah's TR's at the same time. I hope to see LOTS of pics ladies.

 

[MouseTriper]

Thanks for the calls today Alicia!!! I am so glad you guys are home safe and sound. Hopefully Matt was able to get in a few hours of sleep before work. I bet all of you will be exhausted tomorrow.

Anyway, I am really looking forward to hearing more about the trip and seeing all the pictures!!!!

 

[aksunshine]

Oh great... another TR I will be stuck to everyday waiting on pins and needles to read

J.K I am so excited to hear your TR and see all the pics of your family. Now to get my pins and needles ready

Ha ha! Sorry for any delays...LOL!

Glad you made it home safe...I know I was there, BUT I will be reading along

I wouldn't want it any other way! How's Javen?

That is so STINKIN funny! We went to BBB, but at DTD, on 9/1, we left on 9/6, our last MK day was 9/5! Tanya90210 made those for me! I really like the idea, I think I will make some for our next trip. Anyway, I'm glad you found me, so stick around!

Hi Beth! What are you up to today? I tried to call! Matt ended up not going in last night. We forgot to set the alarm! He is in a little trouble, but it should be OK.

 

[aksunshine]

I'm guessing you are all ready for some more? And some pictures too? OK....

Here are the pictures that go along with the last installment.
Isabelle after waking, pulling off the last link.

We were packed in before school!

Heading to our last day of school before vacation!

A quick double check that the trunk was loaded!

Meeting with Farrah in Evansville!!!! (Sorry for the lack of make-up, I was rushing to get ready that day!)

And we are off!!!!!!

 

[Dylan_&_Blake's_mom]

Yay!! I'm first to post one in response to your update. It looks great so far. I'm so glad you started, trying to be patient and wait on another update. Isabelle looks beautiful as always and I don't think you need any makeup...seriously...you are very pretty.

 

[hlrababy]
