Cousins

This summer I have had the chance to take a lot of family photos - including my own siblings and their precious kids! Here are a few of my favorites.

Pictures from our Florida Trip

Priceless - when it comes to sitting in an airport!
Our first night at the Sheraton Safari Hotel - very nice!




The pool area at the Sheraton was so nice - the snake is a waterslide



Spending time by the ocean.

Looking for lizards around the house - right after this picture Levi was attacked by fire ants! Not so nice!
More ocean fun...
Ice cream in Florida melts REALLY fast!
Playing in the pool at the Academy.

Our day at Animal Kingdom.

What a Bug!
Justin "guiding" us through the Asian animals.

Riding the train to Rafiki's Area.
The parade - the boys are usually really afraid of "characters" but they did really well!
Our last morning in the hotel - the boys had to have one last swim before heading to the airport.
Levi was such a trooper and pulled his suitcase almost all the way through the airports.
Watching airplanes - a favorite past time in our family.

Florida

Can you believe this? This is Justin! Swimming head under, no goggles, not fins, no lifejacket! He is doing SOOOO good! This picture is supposed to be with the others but I can't figure out how to move it... We have been swimming every day while in Florida - the boys love it!

We have been in Florida this week trying to get all of the details of our potential move set, so that once our house sells we can go. We have been here since Friday and have gotten quite a bit accomplished. We are so tied with not having sold our house yet. We have found a place to stay when we do move and we are excited about that. Also, Eric is enrolled in the school and everything is all set for him to start. Hopefully on September 29. We spent the first night in Orlando, and the past 5 days we have been in a house in Sebastian. It has been wonderful! We have three bedrooms, a kitchen, tv, washer & dryer (no going home with a suitcase of dirty clothes!... it is so nice to have some space and not be in a motel room. This is not a potential house that we can rent when we get here - but just one that we found on the internet. Tomorrow morning we are heading back to Orlando for a day at Animal Kingdom. The boys have been wonderful as we spent lots and lots of time in the car - driving through developments, neighborhoods, and around town. So they deserve a day of their own and they chose Animal Kingdom. Thursday we fly home. So in a nut shell that is our adventure so far. We have another Open House for our house on Sunday, September 7 (if you know anyone interested in a wonderful house in the Cascade, Ada, Lowell area send them over) - maybe God will bring just the right buyer so that we can be back here when school starts for Eric. Otherwise we will continue to wait on God... His timing is perfect...

I tried to upload pictures and it wasn't working... okay I got a few - but they are no order...
Playing in the ocean.
I was worried the boys wouldn't have any wildlife to stalk if we moved here - not a problem! They are constantly on a hunt for lizards - and they are plentiful around here!
The house we have been staying in this week, in Sebastian (just north of Vero Beach).
The boys on the plane - they traveled really well. Levi was so excited to take off - he asked over and over again when we would take off - and he fell asleep while we were on the tarmac - just minutes before we took off - we tried everything to keep him awake and nothing worked! He was so confused when he woke up and we were in the air!
