I haven't posted in a while, I know.

Life has been taking twisted turn after twisted turn lately, so I know that I will begin to rely upon this blog again soon. I've also decided to write, with the help of Jake, OUR story. Our memoir. You can find that here. It will begin to be updated soon but go ahead a bookmark us.

So whats happened in the last 4 months...

We(our crew, my parents, and Uncle J{Aunt G's Hubby}) went to Disney at the end of April, beginning of May. It was a trip I never thought we would be able to take, and probably wouldn't have been if there hadn't been incredible generosity of family and my Aunt G. You see, Aunt G had been talking about taking my kids to WDW for a very long time. It was something she had wanted to do so much. She wanted to see the smiles on their faces, the jaws on the floor, the excitement. It was because we lost her, that we were able to go. And on the first night there, under the fireworks, looking at Cinderella's Castle, I SERIOUSLY lost my shit, people. I grabbed Jake's hat and ducked my head to the ground, hoping the kids wouldn't see. Not only was this a trip we never thought we would be able to take, EVER, Aunt G wasn't there to share it with us. It was a painful joy. But, she was there. It was evident everywhere. The lack of really long lines, the laughter, my kids having the absolute time of their life, she made it all happen(with some help from my amazing parents). It was her trip, lived out by my children.

I'll be making an online album so that we can share all of these pics. Well, at least the ones that don't have my gut in the way. Got many of those too!!!!

I have several drafts in the works, so I'll try to get off my duff and post again soon! Its so nice to be back in my little blog world!
