It's been awhile...

Do I still have any readers left??? I have been MIA for so long that I would understand if I didn't, but I'm hoping a few of you have stuck around. Although I haven't been posting on my blog, I have still be stalking all of your blogs and reading them almost daily. And I've missed you!

I've been busy with normal life stuff... Work, garage saleing (I scored this past weekend, will post pic's in an upcoming blog), had a minor surgery, crafting and scrapbooking, and the most fun was taking my niece, Ryah to Disneyland for her 5th birthday. Way back in 2005 I started the tradition of taking my nephews/nieces to the Magical Kingdom when they turned five, it is my special time with the kids (even though they'd rather be with their Uncle Dan than with me-LOL- and I don't mind at all, he is so good with them, and I love seeing him with them, he is going to be a great father someday. I am now four down and two more to go and although sometimes I wonder why I decided to start this tradition because I feel like I am headed to Disneyland almost every year, it is so worth it to see their smiling happy faces.

Here are a few pic's down memory lane!

Ryah 2010!

Shaun, my very first Nephew. I took him to Disneyland in 2005! (he is now almost 10, I am getting old!)



Tessa and Tanner (cousins) 2009
lucky for me their birthdays are so close that I was able to take them together!


Kendall is the next one to go, her trip is being planned for 2012


And Emma will be my last, in 2014! looking forward to all of the memories....



I am going to get smart and try to plan out my blog posts ahead of time so that I won't be gone for so long in the future! Thanks for sticking around! XOXO

I've missed you and always love reading your comments on my blog.

What a great tradition you've started! So you think 5 is the prefect age for Disney Land?
