Your life just fell apart & came back together,what are you going to do next? TR UP!

[inkedupmomma]

SO.. I am totally sucking at this PTR this year..and keeping up with others reports :/ But I am trying to get back into it. I am beyond excited for this trip, but almost afraid to get too excited..just in case something bad happens again.

Clearly I am still traumatized by the events over the past year..and then add all the other years of BS, and bam.. you get a very crazy Jenn! Luckily, Bob is AMAZING..LIKE AMAZING, AMAZING! He is always there when I have a crazy spell, and calms me down, is patient with me, and just so loving. It is amazing to me, that a man like this exists and wants ME, is in LOVE with ME!

Anywho..sorry for the breakdown there! I just figured I should esplain where my head is at lately! I go through waves of so confident , to ahhhhh is my life gonna fall apart again! So far it is better than it ever has been, so hopefully that is a good sign!

Now, onto fun stuff... pictures! I figure if I have no news to report concerning Disney, I might as well post some pics of what we have been up to here!

The first batch are from Jack's first day of full day pre-k..which he loves btw! I thought full day would be too much, but he seems to really be thriving!

So, there you have it..the whole play by play! From him waking up, to what I packed him for lunch, to him sitting at his desk lol!

Next up.. Fall fun has started in this house!

How cute. Love the Catholic School pics. We heart Catholic School.

Again, I have to say that your kids are adorable! I just love Jack's farmer's tan on his arms LOL! That reminds me of my grandfather after he played golf all day.Only his arms would be tan

About your trip, I totally understand that feeling of waiting for that other shoe to drop. You are so lucky to have a guy that understands. I've felt that way myself and it helped me a lot to have someone in my corner who understood my "crazy" as I called it But it was such a liberating feeling when I stopped letting my ex-husband's nonsense steal my joy! So my advice (even though you didn't ask for it ) is not to let him have that power over you and just fully enjoy your relationship with this guy who sounds like Mr Right You guys are going to have an awesome trip next year!

He is just too stinkin' cute for words. Kayla too.

Those pictures are the bomb diggity!

Take it from somebody whose husband just up and left after 10 years of marriage; 6 years later and I still have the occasional twinge of "what the crap happened" "why did this happen?" "boo to me"...but they are few and far between now. Time will help heal the damage.

Oh! I also meant to mention that the lunch you packed for Jack looked so yummy! I wanted to reach in and grab a blueberry!

 

[Beka]

So if this baby is a girl, I'm claiming Jack now as her future husband. BACK OFF LADIES!!! And if I have a son, well, then I donno. I love the pic of Jack hugging Kayla & her smiling How freaking cute is that?!

Um, does Bob have a favorite character?

How cute. Love the Catholic School pics. We heart Catholic School.

We aren't super catholic, but after the split, the priest was sad fr me, and offered me a price I couldn't resist for Jack to go to school full time there! I was happy about it!

as for letting go, I slowly but surely am. but as you all know, it's a process.. ups and downs, downs and ups! Luckily its been mostly ups!

He is just too stinkin' cute for words. Kayla too.

time is definitely the key... time just takes so long though we should swap stories some day..well, I guess all of the dis knows my biz now LOL... I'm so shy! hugs from one hurt momma to another!

thank you! we pack bento box style lunches every day! they are not like the ones you see on cool food blogs, but they do the trick! kids will eat ANYTHING if you pack it that way!

How stinkin' cute is he!?!?! Makes me tear up already about sending Juju to kindergarten next year! The lunch idea is SO COOL! I've never packed a lunch for a kiddo yet, and I am stealing this idea!! (Oh, and there may be more competition for future wife--if Juju meets up with him next Sept., there's no doubt she'll be in love!)

Hi Jenn! I just followed you over here from Carrie's TR, I think. I love a good love story, so I can't wait to follow along. I love how life just turns out like it was supposed to all along, if we let it! You have a beautiful family, BTW, you included!

So, I saw your PTR title on Katmark's TR and I just had to check it out. I feel very similarly about our upcoming trip to Disney, but for different reasons. I am so glad that everything seems to be working out for you. Your kids are adorable and I think your youngest is a year older than my son, Max. We're planning out first trip as a family for this coming February and I can't wait! We'll also be on the DxDDP.

AKL is beautiful and one of the deluxes I would love to stay at. I had originally booked the Contemporary for this trip, which is my dream resort, but I just couldn't handle what it was all going to cost, so we switched to CSR, where my husband and I stayed last year and we LOVED it.

Enjoying your PTR. I love to hear about people's lives, too. It always interests me how many of the same things we all seem to go through.

Hey guys! Happy fall! Hope everyone is enjoying this beautiful weather and change of season! I know we are! We have been busy with apple picking, pumpkin picking and celebrating Riley's (our dog) 3rd birthday!

Also, happy 10-10-10!!

Not much going on here on the Disney front :/ Although, I have been thinking about it more and more! We still haven't made a decision concerning resorts. Bob said he does not want to make any decisions until we see how much we killed ourselves over Christmas! If we go over budget, then we will down grade. But he still Loves the idea of AKL. So we will see.

I added some pics so you can see just how fun our life has been...and who doesn't love pics?? It's what keeps me coming back to PTR's and TR's!

Jenn, what a sweet update. And how much fun it looks like you all had. I love all the pics, but I especially like the one of you and Bob in the tree.

Happy 3rd birthday, Riley.

Thank you so much Kat Can you believe Kayla took that picture of us! She got some really great shots that day, and had a ball playing photographer!

Riley did indeed have a very happy birthday! Even had meatballs for dinner!

 

[Fantasyland Mom]

YAY for updates! (And, yes, I need to do a Fall update...I'll get to it eventually...)
Love the pictures of you guys monkeying around in trees! Riley looks like he had a good birthday, and he tolerated that hat better than my children do!!
Glad you guys are taking a "wait and see" approach to the money situation. No need to worry about it til you have a better idea of what's going on financially.
And now I am off to look at Bento blogs!
