We are headed to the place where dreams come true!

yep! the last thing i should be doing right now is posting to my blog. but i'm just so excited to think about the upcoming week! we will be driving to new orleans tuesday afternoon/evening. then wednesday morning we will be flying to disney world for an entire week!!!! i'm so excited.

with that said...a couple of prayer requests: safety as we travel and patience. you know, as a mom, that sometimes it's hard to really be on vacation. well, i really want to be on vacation...no rules, well, ok a few rules. come on, we can't have no rules. i want to let everyone, including myself, totally enjoy this one week. i really do not want to get frustrated when kelly whines. she will be sleep deprived and probably starving since all she will eat is fruit. although, i have heard that they do have lots of fruit at disney world. and i don't want to get frustated with kyle when he throws one of his 2 year old tantrums because we said he couldn't hit sissy. you know what i mean. i really want to be off duty as "MOM" and just enjoy this wonderful week of "dreams come true." well, that would be my dream come true!

sickness update: all of the pink eye has now left the caston clan. praise GOD! i seriously thought i was about to lose it. although i've been left with a terrible headache due to all of the drops i've been using. it turns out i didn't have the bacteria type of pink eye, so the antibiotic drops were doing nothing (they only cost me $5, so no big loss there). however, i was then prescribed some anti-inflammatory drops ($87). big bucks, but big progress. as soon as i dropped those in, my eyes felt like they were in heaven. too bad i still have a headache. i guess you could pray that would disappear before we leave on tuesday.

off to bed...lots to do tomorrow! lots of pictures to follow our return!

Enjoy your time at the Magic Kingdom! Praying for safety and patience (I'm hearin' ya on that one) as well as a vanishing headache. ;-)

A *vacation* with the family--what a great way to start 2009!
