(NOTE – This is part 4/4 of our family’s trip diary detailing our vacation to Orlando, FL taken a year ago now. This last installment is quite late, but better late than never, I think!) Friday, January 21 – Today our house seemed quite empty as our travel companions left and it was just Hubby, […]

The July 2011 page on my calendar has been filled since spring, so I knew we had a busy month ahead. Organizing everything I had jammed into those little squares on the calender was going to be challenging enough, but then we were even able to add a few family mini-vacations to the mix! It’s

Tuesday January 18 – We began the day at Sizzler’s breakfast buffet, again. If you are noticing a pattern, you won’t be surprised to see this in the diary for pretty much every day of the week. The prices there were great ($3.99 per adult and kids were free!), the food wasn’t bad, and it

Friday January 14 – We left our hometown about 4:40pm after loading the car, getting kids’ school stuff stashed for the week off, the gas tank filled up, and some snacks from the drive-thru for the kids. I noted the dashboard temp at 20°F. Around 8pm, we found a Goldstar Chili to stop at in

Well, I’ve been back in town from a glorious family vacation to Florida for a few days now, and realistically, I guess I could say that I’m getting back on track. But catching up is going so slowly, and it’s easy to feel overwhelmed and like I’ll never be done. But you know what? With
Only FIVE more days until we leave for a family vacation to warm sunny Florida!! Making this one even better than most are extended family and friends that are able to meet us down there. The kids (and us!!) could not be more excited!!! I just have to figure out how to get 6 people
Normal wear and tear on my poor little truck. The little beast that helped move a man-eating plant to our local theater. The one that moved things for all of my daughters. Moved firewood to keep me warm in the winter. Carried my dearest family to their home in Florida. 6 years and 175000 miles
