Hakuna Kidani, What a Turtleful Phrase!

Time for some breakfast.





A tiny glass for a tiny girl.



Mr. Marc got a banana call.



By the way, today is Mr. Marc's birthday. Happy Birthday, Marc! party:

That's it for now. Have a wonderful Sunday, all!
 
Happy Birthday, Marc! I hope you have a great day!! :thumbsup2 :banana: :yay:

Hope also that everyone has a nice Sunday. We had my brother, sister in law and two nieces here since Thursday afternoon. They're leaving this morning, and then after church and lunch my mom and I are going shopping. I am in desperate need of some new tennis shoes so hopefully I can find some. Then it's laundry time - woo hoo. :rotfl:
 
Isn't that a nice stroll under the bridge? The Peter Pan mural is so very magical! Baylor loves to play basketball so he is always after someone to go over there with him. Every time you post these pics, I want to jump in and be back there. It's almost time for gator hatching at "Gatorama" and that's another thing on my bucket list. I'm keeping an eye on their FB page to see when they get started...

We had a report on our mission work in Mexico this morning. It really made me appreciate even more all of the nice things that I have. Even though I am 'poor' compared to most families with two incomes, higher paying jobs, etc., I have more than I deserve, and I have more than the people we are sponsoring down there. I feel very, very blessed.

I, too, have a load of laundry in. I need to go put the washed clothes into the dryer, but I am too lazy to get up right now. I am trying to catch up on my DIS friends, and I have been working on some odds and ends for Sophie's party. I will get down there and toss them in the dryer eventually. Maybe when I get up to go get something to eat. :scratchin There has to be time for some weekend laziness, doesn't there???

Just how long is that bucket list of yours? I need to write down mine. I doubt it would be incredibly interesting, and I know most of it wouldn't get done, but it would be interesting to see what things popped out of my head and onto paper. If I had the money, I'd like to go to Korea to visit where Drew was born. I'd like to spend some time working with the adoption service and children's home to hook those babies and kids up with their forever families. I'd like to go to Hawaii, because I know that it is so amazingly beautiful that you have to see it to fully comprehend its beauty. I'd like to fund lots of pet-related programs for abused and abandoned animals. I'd like to set up homes for teenage mothers who are trying to finish high school or college. I really need to win the lottery. ::yes:: (I suppose I need to play the lottery first, though, huh? :upsidedow)
 

I want on a small vacation and missed two Distown birthdays!

:cheer2:Happy belated Birthday Brooklyn:cool1:
:cool1:Happy Birthday Mr. Marc:cheer2:

Now on to the Report Update

Love the pictures from your last two updates.

The Bridge Mural is so pretty
 
We need to get you to be a 'swimming girl'. ::yes:: I used to be a pretty darn good swimmer in my younger days, but I have not gotten in a pool in years because of my flabbiness. I long to take early morning/late night swims when we are in Disney World when there is no one around. Maybe we could have some 2 a.m. swim lessons one of these days. :laughing:

2 am SWIMMING LESSONS. :faint: Well Okay, just for you gals.




party:HAPPY BIRTHDAY Mr. MARCparty:
 
:cheer2::cheer2:Big Happy Birthdays to Miss Brooklynn and Mr. Marc!!! :cheer2::cheer2:

Those sunrise pictures over the water are the stuff dreams are made of!:thumbsup2. I made a quick trip to Indiana this weekend and I was showing your pictures to my cousin and we are now considering adding a few days on to Vero if we get to go on another family trip in the spring!::yes::
 
Happy Birthday to Marc!party::bday::cake:

Lovely sunrise pictures. I enjoyed your walk through the tunnel to the other side. It looked like Sophie had the run of the place. Someday soon she will be big enough to play some basketball or tennis.

It's fun that they thought to decorate the bridge walkway. Most places would have left the walls plain, but Disney adds that extra little fun touch. :tink:

party:HAPPY BIRTHDAY Mr. MARCparty:

If I could be assured no one would be around, I'd love to take a late night early morning swim probably every Disney day. ::yes::

I hope you get to check Vero out. I think you would really enjoy ending your Disney trip there. It would make leaving WDW easier if you knew you were on your way to another Disney part of the vacation.

We've gotta get that girl on her feet first. :laughing: She had little interest in crawling and did that on her time. Now she doesn't have much interest in walking. She has two more months to beat Drew, still. He walked the day he turned 14 months.

Soon you will see that we walked back along the bridge path to the other side for Brooklynn to participate in an activity. :thumbsup2

Good morning, friends!

How is it that Monday morning seems so close to the previous Friday afternoon? We need to figure out a way to stretch out these weekend hours!

Oh well, here we go again.......
 
I couldn't agree more about extending weekends. They are too short! I hope you have a good Monday and a good week.
 
That sunrise is so pretty! You just can't beat a sunrise over a calm ocean. Beautiful!

I love the Peter Pan theming of the tunnel. Such a cute idea! And I do believe in magic! :thumbsup2

Adorable photo of Sophie on the tennis courts! Looks like she was eating her foot while in the stroller too. Silly girl! :goodvibes

Happy Birthday Mr. Marc! party:
 
A new morning dawns at lovely Vero Beach.
Such gorgeous sunrise pictures!!! :goodvibes

Do you believe?

:thumbsup2

I guess we all used to be able to do this.

If I ever did, I sure don't remember it now............ :guilty:

By the way, today is Mr. Marc's birthday. Happy Birthday, Marc! party:
Happy Belated Birthday to Mr. Marc!!! :cake: :bday:

There sure are a lot of special people who have birthdays around this time of the year....... ::yes::

Totally agree! And for some reason this past weekend seemed to fly by even faster than normal........ :sad2:
 
Happy belated birthday to Brooklyn:dance3::dance3::cheer2:

Crazy time in Murfreesboro with the start of school and getting ready to go to the beach (not that I'm complaining:upsidedow)
 


Standing out on the deck watching the sun rise and listening to the waves roll in brought me extremely close to the Creator of it all. I loved those beach mornings.

Sounds so very peaceful! I can't wait...18 days until I get to see a beach sunrise. :)


Seth would see that picture and immediately say, "Tinka Bell!" with a big smile on his face.

I guess we all used to be able to do this.


:rotfl: It's been awhile!!
 
I love the sunrise pics of the ocean. We try and go to the ocean when we are down there, but haven't been for a couple years. We are never there at sunrise though, but I still love everything about it. The sounds and smell and just walking on the beach make me so happy. We will go for sure in Nov. when we will have plenty of time. Belated Happy Birthday Brooklynn! Hope your feet are feeling much better.
 
Oh boy, lately it seems that the hurrieder I go, the behinder I get. :rotfl: But at least I'm all caught up here now. I really want to do a Vero add-on at some point.

Happy belated birthdays, Marc & Brooklynn!!! :dance3:

I have been keeping Brooklynn & you all close in my thoughts since the surgery. Glad to know she's coming along. How not, with such cute casts! Her hesitation to walk much at first reminded me of my baby sister. When she was three, she broke her leg (doing some crazy stunt like all us big kids). That heavy cast slowed her down a bit, but even when it came off, she kept hobbling around pathetically for the better part of a week. Poor thing, you'd think! But then she'd spy her trike. Once she hopped on her tricycle, she would be off like the wind, peddling so fast her feet were a blur!

Hope everyone had a good Monday!
 
Gorgeous sunrise pictures! I remember how beautiful the sunrise and sunset were at Vero. I just loved the early mornings at Vero. So perfectly peaceful.

I might have to stay away from your TR for awhile because every time I see Vero I wish I had booked a couple nights there for October.

Just kidding. I'll be back! :thumbsup2
 
A new morning dawns at lovely Vero Beach.




Gorgeous!

Lord willing, I'll be seeing something similar in November on a trip to Myrtle Beach. Can't wait to see the glory of the Lord in the early mornings.

Looks like everyone was having a good time on this trip so far.
 
First chance since we got back to sit at the computer for a few minutes! Now to catch up!
