Sound the Twilight Bark and Pass the Chocolate Croissants - A London & Paris PTR

The Paris Amour will be perfect for the girls! I am like you -- waiting until after Christmas to book things and such!

Prayers for your friend Jana. :hug:
 
Thank you very much!!


Thanks, this was supposed to be our present to each other, but DH says he's getting me something from the Disney store!!! I'm guessing it is one of the new home fragrances.


I have a favor to ask. If you are so inclined, I would ask you to keep my friend Jana in your prayers. I have worked with her for many years and she has become a great friend. I found out this morning that she unexpectedly lost her father yesterday. Any and all prayers are welcome. She is a very faithful person and I know that God will see her and her family through this, but she's had a tough year and could certainly use the help. Thanks friends!

Thinking of your friend, Jana, during her difficult times. I hope she will have friends and family that surround and uplift her through the weeks ahead. It is hard to go through things during a holiday time. My dad went into the hospital in early December and died there in early January. The world around us was having such a good time, and we were in sort of a daze and were just going through the motions. Luckily, Jill and Trent were so small they didn't know what was going on, so the Christmas we managed to have for them was fine. Every year at Christmas, I think of others who are waiting in hospital rooms and sleeping in waiting room chairs and floors as people they love are hurting.
 
Saying prayers for Jana. :littleangel: Also I slipped a little something something in the mailbox for ya today! Should arrive early next week I hope! :goodvibes
Thanks Kim! I'll keep an eye out!
Praying for Jana. :grouphug:

It's so very nice to see you here Kim! :wave2:
Thank you! The more prayers the better!

I think so too! Once Christmas is over (not that I'm rushing it), we will be getting very busy and excited about this trip!

Thank you MeMom!! She does have a large familly and friends support network. My FIL also went into the hospital a couple weeks prior to Christmas 1999 and passed away on 12/20. It is very odd to have that feeling where others are joyous and you are grieving. I wish there was more I could do, but for now, prayers and good wishes are what I can offer. I think I will bake extra cookies and give some to her family because I think she would not feel like or have time to bake. Although she is a phenomenal baker, I'm guessing the motivation won't be there.
 
Just saw your post about jana, so saying a special prayer for her tonight! Alot of people have lost their parents in the last couple week!
 

Thank you very much!!

Thank you. We have seen Vero and had lunch there in summer 2010, but have not stayed there. It is beautiful!! Too bad you can't meet up there with Anita and gang. That would be fun!

I shall investigate! thank you!

Well friends, I have still not really made any more plans. We plan to book our Disneyland Paris stay after Christmas. I did get the girls some Bath and Body Works "Paris Amour" lotion and shower gel for Christmas!! I need to sit down with the books this weekend and make some lists.

Just saw this...will be praying for your friend, Jana,...that has to be so much harder at this time of year...
 
Thank you all for your prayers for my friend Jana. She's back at work and dealing as best she can, although it's terribly stressful and difficult.

I hate to keep dipping in the well, but now I need your prayers again. Just this morning we were told that Dave's mom passed away. It was unexpected, but she has been living in a memory care unit for a while now and had been sick recently. We haven't got a lot of details yet, but it looks like the funeral services will be held the week after Christmas, in part to allow many of us to come from farther away. So we'll be taking an unplanned road trip down to Virginia after Christmas. :sad1:

Thank you my friends. :hug: You're the best!
 
Saw your sad news on FB this afternoon! Praying for your family during this very difficult time!!! :hug:
 
So sorry to hear about your MIL and your friend's loss. I will be praying for comfort during this difficult time.
Sorry, I have been absent for a couple of weeks. My boys are 3 and 5. I can't wait to hear about DLP!
 
We're all here for you in thought and prayer. We will be thinking of you as you travel.
 
Sheree, I'm so, so sorry about Dave's Mom. You all are in my thoughts and prayers! :hug::hug::hug::hug:

Thank you all. It's so nice and reassuring to know that so many of my DIS friends are so thoughtful and praying for us.
It's been a very strange week, just continuing to work/school, and prepare for Christmas, but all the while knowing that there is this looming dread and sadness. I was able to spend some time today with friends that I haven't seen in a while and that was great. My kids have never been to a funeral, so preparing them for that is a bit strange and difficult too. The kids don't seem to understand some of the stuff that comes with a death and I think it will be more "real" to them when we go to VA. But they are very excited about Christmas and we will enjoy it as much as possible. Then at the crack of 0-dark-30 we'll hit the road on Monday and try to get back on New Year's Eve.

After I get back we'll get back to our trip planning!!! But for now I wish you all a
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!


:santa:
 
I'm so sorry for your loss Sheree. :hug: You know your family is in our prayers. Try to enjoy Christmas and travel safe.
 
I'm so sorry for your loss Sheree. Marshall, my dh lost his mom last month and he's having a tough time too. Christmas was definitely not the same this year. I hope you were able to celebrate the holiday, though there was sadness. :hug:

I didn't know this PTR was started so please don't mind my lateness. I can't wait to read more!
 
Sheree - I am so very sorry about Dave's mom. I completely missed this while I was away. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. :hug:
 
Thank you all! We have arrived back home safely and we're doing okay. We did get a chance to go to Busch Gardens in Williamsburg for a Christmas thing, which was really cool. I'll post some pics later on.

Meanwhile

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
