Disney World or Bust: Part 2

I have enough pictures just from the bus ride to Magic Kingdom to warrant an entire post. Can't you feel the excitement?

Prediction

I saw this picture and thought, I know exactly what he's going to look like at 15 years old. Scary.

Halloween '11

A lot of discussion and debate went down before we finally settled on the boys' Halloween costumes this year. I usually try to coordinate their outfits, but seeing as how Isaac won't wear a hat, a hood, a mustache, glasses, or any other item of clothing or accessory that would make for a good Halloween costume, there weren't many options left. So we settled on AlexBOT 4000 and a punk rocker, which I think worked out pretty well. The only thing that might have made it better is if Isaac would have let me pierce his face. Maybe next year...

Disney World or Bust: Part 1

Off we go...to Disney World. Me and the boys boarded a plane from Dallas, my family boarded a plane from Chicago, and we all met up at the airport in Orlando.

Since we were staying at one of the Disney resorts, we got to board Disney's Magical Express, which played old Donald Duck cartoons all the way to the hotel. Those Disney people sure know how to set the tone for a fun family vacation!

Things only got more exciting when we got to the resort. There was just a buzz around Disney World that I can't really explain, and we hadn't even made it out of the hotel yet!

More fun to come...

Hooray for fall!

Things I like best about the fall:

1. Football weather.
2. Being able to play Christmas music without Tim rolling his eyes.
3. That I can finally melt Scentsy's cool weather scents with a clear conscience.
4. That boys' clothing becomes significantly less ugly.
5. Scarves. Lots of scarves.
6. Boots. And tights. And tights with boots.
7. Pumpkins, and food made from pumpkins.
8. Soup.
9. The smell of wood burning.
10. Christmas lights going up.
11. Visits to the Arboretum.
12. Anticipation of the holiday season.
13. Blankets.
14. Playing outside with the boys.

Boys being boys

Brothers

A rare moment when neither of them is causing the other bodily harm. Love these boys.
