Falling With Style

January 28, 2012: began with haircuts - ended with The Hill Cafe. Both were more enjoyable because it was 60ish degrees outside…in January.

January 17, 2012: my baby turned four today. Happy Birthday Ryan James G. Photo taken 1/22/08

January 15, 2012: Happy Birthday to my Ryan James. He turns four on Tuesday.

January 10, 2012 I may or may not be planning my next WDW trip….

January 9, 2012: I hope you are sitting down for this one. I cooked dinner.
(It’s Paula Deen’s Chicken Divan)

Don’t worry, we have a backup plan.

January 8, 2012: my son loves his CranApple Juice…a lot.

The stomach bug is continuing to attack (now Kenny) so I took both boys (with the gracious assistance of Aunt Shelley & a Nintendo DS) to Kroger.

It was a full day of bribes & electronic distractions, a pack (or two) of M&Ms & a handful of coupons. Happy Sunday.

January 7, 2012: Mario, Mario & more Mario.

January 5, 2012: Happy Birthday Laura! aka @RDHtownMom (yes, this is from a few trips/years ago but I wanted to toast a GMS to ya on your special day!)

January 3, 2012 - Dear Plaza Azteca, Why the violent birthday song? Was the ambush with really harsh hat smash really necessary? Oh Plaza Azteca, you know I can’t stay mad at you. Your ability to continue to let me order a meal that’s no longer on the menu is just too nice. Don’t worry, we all will be back for more. Just probably not for birthdays.

Happy Birthday Whit! You were a great sport!

January 2, 2012 Bentley the Bear: A journal project assigned by my youngest son’s preschool teacher. I have been including this little guy in all of our adventures since mid-december.

Learnings: I’m extremely thankful for my iPhone camera, my new wifi printer and a purse which made for a great home for dear Bentley as we traveled around for two weeks documenting how Ryan spent his vacation. I’m also glad for two major holidays & a pretty large RD event or it would appear all we do is go out to eat. (yeah, we all know the truth & I’m okay with that)

Jan 1 2012. It was a Mario Christmas. Old school Mario Bros, new school Mario Galaxy, 3DS, T-shirts, sleep pants & even stuffed animals. I now hear that familiar theme in my head all the time and dream of how to create the perfect Mario Kart cake for a 4 y/o b’day party in two weeks. It was a really wonderful couple of weeks away from work (mostly) & with my family.

I have no idea what this is all about… But I’m already all about it.
