Mini Vaca

So we went to Orlando this past weekend and enjoyed having some family time. It was FREEZING so we weren’t able to use our Seaworld passes but we still had so much fun just hanging out. We went to see the Chipmunk movie, went to Chuck E. Cheese, went shopping in the outlet malls and of course visited IKEA. They had their semi annual sale and we got some awesome organizational stuff for my business and got some awesome pillow cases for our couch. I’ll have to include a picture so you can look at them. They were only $1.98 per pillow case.

Mystery Destination

I know, I know, I haven’t blogged in FOREVER. Wee Cycle has been so busy which I’m super thankful for but it does take the majority of my free time. Hmmmm free time now that’s quite a funny phrase since I am now a mom of 3 little kids that take up a lot of my time. I guess really my only free time is when I’m in the bathroom with the door closed so I guess any “extra” time I have I should take away from my business and start blogging again. Since James’s stupid Macbook doesn’t have a camera SD slot I can’t update with any pictures since I’m on our mini vacation so I will add pics later.

James and I decided to take the kids on a surprise mini vacation to ring in the new year. I had made a lot of sales with the business so we decided to book a hotel with hotwire and got blessed with a really nice hotel. So we packed up the kids and were on our way. Before we did that though we went to the Ormeos house (James’s sister and family) and shot a bunch of fireworks off. The boys had such a blast doing sparklers and hanging out with their cousins. Anyway back to the mystery destination…we arrived in Orlando around 12 noon then decided to go to Ikea. Thay had their semi annual sale so we got some really nice stuff for really cheap. I was able to get some organizational stuff for my online store. So far the kids are having so much fun. Next we took them to see the Chipmunk Squeakual. They were so excited because Aunt Buppy came with us so they were happy. So right now we are putting the kids down to bed so I’ll blog more tomorrow. Night!

Our Mini Vaca

So we had so much fun this weekend on our weekend away from work. The kids enjoyed Seaworld and we enjoyed just getting away. It was such a warm, gorgeous weekend and we had so many funny experiences with the boys. Asher is talking so much more and it’s easier to understand him. Although it annoys Jordan very much that Asher calls him Jiden. We went shopping at the outlets and I’m so excited because I bought the baby her very first outfit. (then I got home and my co worker Jen had bought 2 other cute outfits for her. Aww my house is about to be taken over by pink and purple)

We stayed in a 1 bedroom condo near Seaworld and went there for 2 days. The highlight of the trip would have to be that we took the boys to the biggest McDonalds in the world. It was a huge chuck E. Cheese inside of McDonalds but my highlight was that the kids meals were FREE. Woohoo I love anything that’s free. Overall we had an awesome, relaxing weekend. Now back to work. I will post pictures soon.

Traveling and confused little children

Since we have traveled so much lately Jordan always asks us which home are we going to? He then asks are we going to the Lando home (orlando), the outh arolina home, the camp home, the Jacksonivlle home, or the motel home.This is probably why my son is so confused. Here was our traveling schedule during the summer:

We headed to Indiana for James to finish his degree then to Orlando for Seaworld, a family vacation with James’s family and Disney, then to Children’s camp, then to our mission trip to West Virginia, then to South Carolina to visit my mom, then to Orlando again (this weekend) then on August 8 and 9th I’ll be gone to help my mom with a conference. At the end of August we’ll be in Nashville with Band with a mission and 12 Left. My kids are really confused but it’s ok because they are great traveling babies.

We had a safe trip AND…

My mommy took me shopping. I know you guys are so jealous but my mom took me on a shopping spree. AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! I was so shocked. We got here, we all went to target, all the kids went to the movies which I could not do since I have toddlers and my mom took me to Kohl’s and let me pick out stuff. It’s so awesome! The boys were so good while we shopped then we all went to chic fil a for dinner. Yum! Anyway we had a great trip up here and we’ll hang here until Wednesday night or Thursday morning. Stay tuned for pictures from our fun, exciting trip :) I love you James have a great week at work.

Disney Trip

So I finally got the pictures we took this weekend from Bethany. She and I took the kids to magic kingdom and couple weeks ago. The kids loved it but wow it was alot of work taking 2 toddlers to disney. Anyway we enjoyed it!

Here are a few of the pictures from our vacation. I still have to get the pictures from Ate’ Joyce and Bethany from seaworld and Disney to post also. Hey Bethany bring your pics this weekend!

Back from Vacation

Wow we just had the most incredible, relaxing, on the go vacation. First we started on our 746 mile voyage to Indiana, then wrapped that up with James finishing his degree and went on to Orlando to join James’s family for a fun Memorial Day weekend. Then Joyce and I stayed with the kids for an extended break. We also got to see the newest addition to our family. (Joyce and Edwin’s newest child they are adopting) She fit in so well with all of her new cousins. Joyce, Tj and I took the kids for a couple all day adventures to SeaWorld then Bethany and I took my kids to Magic Kingdom yesterday and ended the day with an awesome parade and firework show. Wow did they have some fun. I thought my kids would be too young but they had so much fun. Honestly it was the longest vacation I have ever had. 10 days to be exact and I am so tired from my vacation. What up with that? Anyway we had fun and I’m glad we’re home! Check back in a few days for a slide show of all of our fun!

We’re home!

We arrived home safely about 15 minutes ago and are all exausted. That was alot of driving. The kids were great though and we’re ready for our Orlando trip tomorrow. Anyway I’m so glad we get to sleep in our own beds tonight also. For those of you that don’t know, James did pass all of his exams and it just waiting for his diploma to come in the mail now. He can’t actually walk with his graduating class because it’s the week of youth camp. But he’s just glad he has it. I am so proud of you James! I love you!

Our Vacation in pictures – take two

Alrighty I am going to attempt to blog about our trip thus far. Maybe I’ll have more luck trying this time. Ok we began our trip on Monday morning and stopped about 8:30 pm in Tennessee, ate some dinner and put the boys down to have a good nights sleep so we could get up and get down the road to Indiana.

Then we made it to Indiana about 4 pm which gave James enough time to study and get ready for his first class that began yesterday morning. He just texted me and said that he passed the Old Testament section. Woohoo that is such exciting news. He is working on New Testament today. While he was in his classes the boys and I went to the playground and to the zoo. But before we could go out we had to take a bath and brush our snags.

Then we were off to the park…

Then after that I had two very tired little boys that needed some ice cream according to Jordan. So i put dairy queen into the GPS system and off we went to get a blizzard.

Then after that we had a nap, and helped our Daddy study. Below is James telling Jordan all the Old Testament books, who wrote it and the year it was written. Wow!

After dropping our Daddy off to his class we were off to the zoo…

Then after we fed the giraffes the zookeeper came by and told us not to feed the giraffes. Woops why can’t they eat out of our hands since they were already eating the tree branches? Well who knows but at least we got some pictures first! After the zoo we came home and crashed!
