where our dreams came true

Magical --that pretty much sums it all up! My sweet mom & dad treated us to a day at Disney World. We enjoyed every minute of it and we couldn't have pick a more perfect day to go! It was a dream come true to be there with my dad. We worn our matches shirts to celebrate his health! Last year he could even lift his head of his pillow and here is was walking all over the park and riding all the rides! It was a miracle.

the kids did amazing! they were so happy and good. they loved all the rides and seeing the characters from a good distance. they were all tucker out at the end of the day.

Hilton Head South Carolina

We had the bestsest time at the beach with Grandma & Grandpa Mac. Hilton Head Island is a beautiful island! We enjoyed some sunshine and a lot of rain! It was so cozy and an adventure. We shopped, played at the beach, swam, play a lot of ping pong and learned how to play shuffle board. Best of all we got to celebrate Grandma's Birthday with her! Well we really celebrated her birthday all week! They came home with us to Orlando  and on the drive home we stopped at St. Augustine (the oldest city in the US)and that was fun!

the fun begins in Georgia

My awesome parents had a work convention in Savannah Georgia and they generously invite us to crash their party. My dad got my mom a place on the beach and we got to come and play! Before they got there we explored Savannah and enjoyed some true Southern hospitality and old streets.

Birthday Week

I just can't believe how my kiddos have grown!

Boyce turned 4 this week and Eve turned 2!

They both loved having a special day!

Boyce said it was the best day of this life (once he got over the fact he had to go to church on his bday).

And Eve didn't really get it but she just kept saying "it's my birdday!"

how Eve spent her day..

how boyce spent his day.. (with his favorite person)

"Your -ami"

Mark had to be in Miami, or as Boyce would said "your-ami" or if he was talking to me "Daddy's ami", for the first 2 weeks of school. We spent most of our time at the beach or at the pool since this is what I found out of Miami, click here . 

There were two things to be learned this week and we already knew them, school is going to be stinkin hard and we love the beach!

my mom & our new place

We made it to Orlando Florida, our new home.

Moving is never fun but whats not to love about Florida in January.

My sweet amazing mom came to help us, and help us she did!!

We had to play too!

We paid a little visit to Merritt Island.

 We saw this gator just chillin in the wild.

 We love our home! It was stressful trying to get a place but it worked out perfectly and we love it!

We are still alive

It seems like it's been sooo long since I bloged probably because it has and also so much has happened

Christmas was terrific with the Turpins in Idaho. It was amazing to see everyone. We loved all the extra time we got to spend with Taunya and Mike too. Christmas was extra special as we spent a lot of time thinking of the Savior and learning about each person in the nativity.

We even almost saw every Turpin, and we got to take a helicopter ride.

 and this is where we were this week....

True Friends

It seems that you know you are true friends when it's been years since you have seen each other and it seems like you saw each other yesterday! I wish it haven't been years but it was so fun to see my friend Heather! We haven't see each other since high school. (you can figure out how long that's been)

Be thankful

We had an amazing Thanksgiving with all the McFarlanes here in Washington. 

The thing we were most thankful for is the miracle of my dad's health. 

It was so fun to be all together! we made memories that will last us forever!
