Precious memories flood my soul"

Well, last night I arrived home to my family! I was thrilled to be met at the airport by my amazing parents, and come home to my wonderful siblings!! It seems like forever since I saw them last, and I have been hugged by the younger ones over and over again. How I missed each and everyone of them! Life's grand adventure goes on! I'm going to start this post with some pictures of my travels to and from Fl! So, fasten up your seat belts as I take you on this crazy roller-coaster! =) Below is the map in the airplane, tracking out distance from Detroit, MI to Orlando, FL!
The lights in Orlando! Yes, I know it's kind of blurry, but I was in the middle seat.

While a bunch of the Sproul family went to a conference and Mrs. Sproul was in the hospital, I made Reilly a smoothie which I think he enjoyed! =)


After we did some math together, I took him out to blow bubbles!


And then Donovan woke up and decided that staring out the window was a great way to pass the time! =)

This kid is sooo cute and happened to be my buddy the whole time!

I let Reilly take my camera and get some photos....this is what he got!

Here is the view from my room....rather pretty, isn't it?!?!?

Reilly and Mrs. Sproul!

Mr. and Mrs. Sproul! =)

This is Saint Andrew's Presbyterian Church. It's incredibly BEAUTIFUL!!!


This morning, to my great surprise, my little (or should I say, not so little) sisters made these wonderful coconut blueberry muffins for breakfast with eggs on the side! They were so delicious!! =)

And of course, I had to get a few pictures with my siblings I missed so very much!! (with a more familiar camera in my hand too!)



And this is what greeted me at the doors! =)




Goofy faces! =)

Well, there you have it! The beginning and end of a very grand and incredibly brilliant trip!! I had a marvelous time in Fl, but being home with my family is even more splendid!! I pray y'all have an amazing week filled with sunshine and God's peace and grace! Thanks for stopping by!

Y'all come back now, ya hear?!?!?!?

Added this one, just cause I like it best! =) What I've been working on, because these are much needed very soon! The Spare- oom is for my sister and brother-in-law. They are putting it above their baby's room which is also the guest room/stash room/sewing room! Couldn't decide which one I liked better....=P 1.... and 2! This is for my brother and soon-to-be Sister-in-law! I've made three of these and have gotten a good report...so this is what I give when people are getting married! =) Now to go conquer my Saturday, which it is now snowing after a HUGE rain/thunder storm last night. Anyone else have as random weather as we have?!?!? Y'all come back now, ya hear?!?!?

So, as promised, here is PART 2 of our crazy weather! Snow cone? THE SUN IS SHINNING!!!! The three who were brave enough to venture into the great unknown! William and his "guys". Pulling Em out of a drift! Our lane.... The neighbor was kind enough to move the snow to the sides of the rode....thus making HUGE walls on either side! In the country there a LOTS of new games to play. THIS one is called FIND THE DRIVEWAY! Em in a drift.... One happy and rather cold girl! He's not sad.... he's a happy boy! Emma, cooking in style..... Abby stayed inside..she thought it was a better view from the window. Is there anything better then a nice cup of Chai tea while looking out at a frozen wasteland? Some vanilla (I know, very random picture) to make.... White and milk chocolate cookies for the kind neighbor who shoveled our drive!! Abby reading by a nice warm fire.....still not ready to go outside! Abby wrote a blog-post yesterday...I thought it was really cute and I'm su

hike (h k) v. hiked , hik·ing , hikes v. intr. 1. To go on an extended walk for pleasure or exercise. 2. To rise, especially to rise upward out of place. Jasmine decided to come along, even though she had to be lifted up just once! Mr. Hector demonstrating what his kids have done through the ages! Yup, they tried to resemble the tree as best as they could! I think he did a pretty grand job! Dad, looking as dapper as ever with a gorgeous view in the background! Art Dad and Christa as we wait for people to climb up a hole. And there they are! My brother and I! Did I ever mention how much I love him?!?!? Grace, happy as ever! You see, she calls herself "Queen of all Dogs", so having a dog by her side is what places that grin on her face! Or maybe she's just enjoying herself! =) Looking out at the beautiful view and God's awesome creation! Resting......on the edge! Sounds fun?
