A Trail of Tears from Louisiana to WDW & Back Again! New PTR Link 8/15

I am doing an online Scentsy party. With my hostess bonus I can get the burner with the bars. My question to you is what smells do you like? I like mulberry, but would love to try something different. What do you think?


And if you want to place an order, just let me know

I love the necklace. Madison choose one like that as one of her souviners. She wears it all the time.

Finally all caught up. You poor thing... those feet looked like they hated you. Glad to hear they went back to normal sized!

Little Shelby is just so precious in all that she does. Enjoy your time with her, my little princess just started kindergarten. I know you already know how time flies (as you have 2 boys in school), so savor being a SAHM.

So happy you made it home safe, scary with the driving, but we do what we can for more time at disney!!! Oh, and great souvies, specially the necklace with Shelby's name

All trips aren't going to be perfect. I think overall, you had a very magical vacation. As for mean-spirited people on the DIS, so sad that someone would try to upset you. Hold your head up high. You are authentic, and that is a BIG ol' compliment!!

And please check out my PTR, would love to have you "meet" my family!

Yeah my feet totally went on strike on me at Disney!

I am already dreading Shelby starting school & I have a long way to go! But I am fully enjoying the Shelby/Mommy time now that the boys are in school!

The drive was very scary, next time we are making the time to stop & get a hotel room along the way to sleep.

I really love Shelby's necklace. I hope she keeps it til she is old & gray.

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!

Off to check your PTR now!

Thank you all so much for joining me on our 1st ever family vacation & it was to the Happiest Place on Earth. Yes some moments are not too happy, but in the end it was well worth the trip & we had a great time. If you read my PTR I said we wanted to do Disney for no more than $3000, well we was under the $3000 limit. I'm not sure how much, but Ben said "well under it"! And our remaining balance in our checking account when we returned was a whopping $3.00! At least I was still in the positive! I will try to start my new PTR sometime today, so check back soon for that link! Once again, thank you all so much & I really hope you enjoyed reading! Hope to see you real soon on my PTR!

Much love & pixie dust,
Joni

I just wanted to say I really enjoyed your report! You have a beautiful family I am glad to know that it's not just our family that can grate on each other on vacation.

I love Brady's mohawk too! My husband wants to give the boys mohawks but I am holding out until they actually have enough hair to do so

AND you MUST know that your Shelby and my Savannah look like twins!!!!!

My whole family thinks so - I wish I could figure out the picture posting thing so you could see ... Nathan was looking at your report with me one day - pointed at the computer and said "Sissy."

I even cried looking your pics b/c I can just see Savy with Mickey and Cinderella. Oh well we are planning our trip for next year so I can't wait

Anyway hope you have a great day!

The mohawk got him tons of attention! This is a must for everytime we go, along with getting it colored & pixie dust.

Posting pics isn't hard. Do a search on here on how to do it & it explains it very well. I would love to see pics of your daughter! I think that is adorable that Nathan thought Shelby was his sister!

I hope you have an amazing trip & I hope to see you on my PTR when I start it!

Have a great day!

Loved all of the favorite moments. It sometimes surprises us when a husband says something as sweet as Ben did. Who knew they could be so sentimental?

Thank you so very much for taking me to to Disney with you and your beautiful family.

Please post when you start your pre-trip report. I will definitely be there to read.

Yes, Ben's answer surprised me! I'm glad to know he felt that way. I bet it made your heart smile, too!

Surprised me too! I looked at him with tears in my eyes & said "Really?!" He said "Yes, seeing your face with Shelby, seeing Shelby's face everytime she met a character, seeing Koby having fun on the roller coasters & seeing Brady conquering his fear of roller coasters was well worth the money."
