well I have kind of learned to reverse our roles I now open doors for him and I carry all the packages, suitcases, whatever. Unload all the groceries and packages from the car and now do most of the driving(did I mention I hate to drive) I have been doing all the housework, taking out the dogs and any lifting that needs done. I have been looking for a part time job but I don't know how I will leave him while I am at work, some days he can hardly get out of bed. But one must press on and just get the job done. Ok that sounds like I am really suffering, but I am fine, really. Not looking for sympathy, just trucking alongwe will have to wait and see if he has to have another operation or not. At least he is on long term disability from work, so his insurance is footing the bill for now.
They are coming here we are going to a indoor water park and the renfair also Rainforest Café! I love that place. Ok showed this to DD already but she said I should show you all so this is what I did with my morning.
I made this using prequilted fabric. It has 2 pockets, a small black one and a larger red one. on the inside and a pocket under the flap....
Very cute!!!
welcome Dee!!!! my youngest daughter and her daddy are night owls. me, my mom, and my 7 yr old are all up at the crack of dawn....we might just have to meet up somewhere mid morning some days. the good thing is that we are okay not spending EVERY moment together (we might change our minds once we get there though)
we are not as good with the suspense as you are but we're here plugging away.....only 14 more months hahahahaha
thanks for the advice with the fruit, we will probably have our van with us a lot so we could definitely let them nap in the car and then just have some down time in the pool or something
our problem with the different schedules is all in the family
At least not at the time. Now, yes. ....usually. 
Welcome to out ptr.....I am not so good with this surprise. Just lucky that DD#2 (the little one) would never believe we would take her in August. We have always said it would be way too hot for us. And the other surprises. I think the older kids, just don't want to know. They like surprises. Well.....not sure they were thrilled with the surprise we told them 10 years or so ago.
Your doing great planning. Sometimes I think we enjoyed it more when we didn't plan anything. But honestly, Disney almost makes that impossible now. I can't imagine just walking up to CRT, or BoG and trying to get a table.
I can't wait to see the before & after picture of your travel van.
did I mention I have stuff laying all over the bed too. Oh My yea we need to sort this stuff for sure. 
And I just started a pillow dress had to try it......lol
Welcome to out ptr.....
this cracked me up because I was upstairs looking at all the stuff........I think I went a little overboard.......Ok a lot overboard. I now have 2 large plastic totes. 2 large 31 totes plus a large collapsible cooler that is packed full. for Disney then for there visit I have another large 31 tote. plus two totes like you use for groceries plus the computer for Raina, two sand box buckets full of course. and I just bought 2 boxes I thought to put some of the travel games crayons and coloring books in so they would stay neat......STAY NEAT what a laugh there is nothing neat about this pile and the clotes I bought or made are all hanging in the closet so they are not even included in this pile.....Ok I need help, Raina when you get here we have to sort through this stuff and maybe pare it down some. I think we are ready to move in for the winter...
hahahaha they will have to go for dinner AND ice cream I think for us to go through it all
I LOVE those pillowcase dresses! That fabric is so cute!!! Great job
I must have it )
I love the dresses Great Job ..( Raina sssshhhh ! sneak upstairs and grab that crystal thing right next to the railing .a lamp ?..sneak it into your car & bring it to FL with you...she'll never know ...
