Warning : It's almost 23 minutes long but I worked very hard to only post the best pics and have tried adding fun music to match the story-telling. Hope you'll enjoy it!

I'm Not Here To Talk Politics
My fingers are almost too cold to type! The chill in my bones is too hard to shake, even with the heater going and a blanket and a thermal toddler sleeping in my lap.
I'm not at all interested in talking about the historic issues of this historic day. I think the media has done a fine job with that and I'm just not needed in that capacity. But I will say, "God bless America!"
I have to confess again that having a facebook makes blogging MUCH more difficult. Anything even slightly interesting ends up being posted in my status update, there. Trying to think of something to post here is very tough.
We're only days away from our Disney trip. I can hardly believe it! The countdown started 3 years ago and the excitement has risen exponentially since we began. Even Captain recognizes the words, "Disney World" and can equate it to some of his favorite things like Nemo, Goofy, Lightning McQueen and choo-choo trains. When we watched Extreme Home Makeover the other night, he squealed with delight when the Disney characters greeted the needy family. I sure hope he'll be as excited when we see them in real life!
Ray went to a youth retreat this past weekend. I cannot tell you how fast she is growing up. She's hitting a warp-speed growth spurt similar to those of babies. It's heart-warming and heart-breaking at the same time. I love hearing all her stories of the weekend as she remembers them. She is in a great time of her life. I hope she can recognize that.
Homeschooling is going pretty well but seems painfully slow with the upcoming vacation on the horizon. I counted our days for the rest of the year and unfortunately, we've got no more days to be luxurious with. After taking the 8 schools days off for vacation, we really need to work 5 days of every week from here until the FIRST OF JUNE! How did THAT happen? (probably my Santa Claus work...did I mention that here??) I'm gonna try to squeeze in some Saturdays when I can but that will NOT be well-received.
To clarify, I don't think the kids are necessarily BEHIND that far in school. In fact, I know Indie and Rocky are way ahead, but to get in the required number of school days, we have to do SOMETHING to count as school until June 5.
OH! I just thought of something...EPCOT...that can TOTALLY count as a school day! And we're going twice so there's TWO days right there! WE'll have lots of science and geography on those days! YES :)
I wish there was something to report on the home-selling front but there is NADA. And the slowness of this market has been the catalyst for a very lazy approach to keeping the house show-ready. I knew this was always a dangerous place I might eventually slip to and I'm actually quite proud of the fact that it took over a year to get to this point. However, whoever looks at our house next will not have the benefit of having seen it in its gorgeous state of the past. Oh well. We just cannot live that way any more. Yes, we will keep it as clean and tidy as we possibly can but there is a definite difference between the way it looks on its best days now compared to just a few months ago.
SO, there ya have it. Another blog entry from me. Some big whoop, right? I know. But there's a chance I am gonna find my groove again. Thanks for your patience!

Don't Faint
But here I am. Writing a real blog post. Can you believe it?
Here's the scoop. We have been dealing with dial-up since July. It was PURE TORTURE being on the internet. Well, not torture EXACTLY because being withOUT internet is worse. However, the dial-up made online time STRICTLY business, so to speak. I bumbled around on facebook and did some emailing but other than that, it just wasn't worth waiting minutes for pages to load.
And what I have concluded is that blog-writing comes most often from the inspiration of reading other blogs. Since I was rarely reading other blogs, I just didn't get inspired to come here and report.
But, the high-speed internet has returned! Since our reason for dial-up was to save money while waiting for the house to sell, and hanging onto the hope that it would be 'any day now' we finally gave up when ANOTHER contract on the house went KAPUT. We were SO ready for it to all be over, getting to within a week of closing. But when it finally fell apart (after MUCH insanity on the part of the buyer -- why are buyers so koo-koo?) we decided we were tired of the no high-speed internet sacrifice.
Compliments of the holidays, today is Day 2 of complete laziness and I'm catching up on my reading, blog and otherwise. It has been SO nice and has, in fact, caused me to want to write here. Lucky you!
I can't promise tons of posting because I feel it would be terribly painful me to write, and you to read the continued mundaneness of waiting for this house to sell. But maybe I'll get back to it.
Oh, and since my discovery of facebook, and the way I (dumbly??) connected my blog to the 'notes' portion of my profile, I'm likely to be more cautious about getting all in my business here. Facebook has WAY more readers there than this blog does here. Yet, when I post a blog entry, it will show up on my facebook. THAT WILL make a difference in what I write.
I hope everyone has gotten a good start on 2009. We are giddy about the idea of Disney being a month away! WOOT! A fantasy-filled vacation is JUST WHAT WE NEED! Can't wait!
I hope these posts improve as I get acclimated to the blog world again. It's weird how being 'out' of it for so many months has affected my ability to think in blog-terms. (does that make sense to ANYONE but me?)
Thanks for missing me!
Yes, this mea

My Shortcut Of A Post
Confession : Facebook status updates have a tendency to postpone my nagging desire to write a blog entry. Sorry. But if you're on fb too, you already know that's where I'm spending so much of my rare online time.
My other online time is spent working with:
TourGuide Mike to plan the upcoming Disney World trip. I can't believe how quickly it's sneaking up on us! (Pray-ers .. please lift another prayer for us to sell our house. Sure would be awesome to have it sold before the trip!) This might seem like a waste of time to SOME people but to me and my family (there are 15 of us going on the trip) this is a HUGE deal.
Emails that build-up in MASSIVE heaps since I'm not checking it every 5 minutes.
A renewed (and if I can be honest, surprising with the economy and all) interest by others, in Mannatech. YES! Thrills me!
Struggling through my role of "Community Organizer" with ABC. I love it but I have little faith in my abilities to do it as well as it deserves...but I'm gonna do my best!
Oh, and I think trying to be on the computer with a little one is at one of the hardest phases. When Captain was a little smaller, he'd be content to just cuddle while I sat at the desk. Now, he's only interested in pushing buttons himself or in yelling at me to show him a youtube video of "Choo choo!!" (model trains)
Eventually, though, I WILL be back. In the meantime, find me on fb. That's where I status, flair, and share pics.

Cataloging Current Chaos & Contemplations
Alphabetically.
Alabama lawmakers. Ugh. I can think of another "C" word (notice the alliteration of the title?) that could describe a bunch of them. It's definition is "not straight; bent."
Ball season. It is SO upon us. Thank you, God for sending the much-needed rain that has allowed us a slower start than originally scheduled. We'll be ready for a full line-up soon but right now, having each of the 4 kids practicing only once a week instead of twice, has been really nice! Stay tuned for what I hope will be really great ball videos and pictures.
Birthday parties. If I had more time and money I could probably come up with a few incredibly cool ideas but with a tight budget and even tighter calendar, the planning required for the March 27, May 7, May 29, and June 22 events is a little cheated sometimes. Captain's 1st bday party was with very little fanfare, poor fella. I think the other 4 might get mutually themed events...all motivated by a certain mouse we'll be visiting in February 2009. We are now in countdown mode so I think the kids would enjoy some Diz-themed celebrations. But not just a Princess or Mickey thing! No, I'm thinking something specifically related to our favorite things on our previous DW trip. Hmmm...
Blogs. Adding lots to my reader lately. Watch the sidebar because most will probably make it there in the near future.
Houses. I have a folder of online bookmarks for 12 houses. These are the ones we are interested in seriously considering once ours sells. Unfortunately, one of these 12 became a "pending" status this week. I guess that's OK, though because it's a different one that actually has my heart-rate speeding a little when I think about it.
Kids. Mine are awesome and amazing. Sometimes, in between the rebellion and disobedience, the fussing and fighting, the name-calling and hitting, my kids will laugh and play with each other and obey simple commands. Sometimes they will do what they need to do without being told. Sometimes they are fall-out-of-my-chair funny! Sometimes I look at them when they don't know it, and I just stare and smile because I can't believe how gorgeous and wonderful they are.
Living with parents. It's still good but it's still not home.
"Preparing For Adolescence." - This is a class I am teaching to 6th grade girls at the church. It's one of those classes where parents have to sign a permission slip. It's one of those classes where I had to meet with parents before we started. It's one of those classes where students are allowed to write anonymous questions and put them in a box. Yeah.
Reality TV - We're too interested in too many of these silly shows. But they are SO much fun. Project Runway was great and I will miss watching it. The Biggest Loser is new to our schedule this year and was only added because of Bama's Roger Shultz. We are now REALLY loving it and hope Rog goes all the way! It makes me want to exercise, which is a good thing but I often find myself eating uce cream while I watch it! Survivor is still an old standby. We haven't let the kids watch it this year, though. I don't have a favorite yet. American Idol is great, of course. I had high hopes for David Arculetta (sp?) but tonight's bombing worries me. Jason Castro is gorgeous. I don't mean that in a lustful way but in a way that means I truly think he's beautiful. I like looking at him like I like looking at sunsets. The Apprentice is another new one we added to our viewing list. It almost didn't make it because we were unsure we'd like it but it's been very enjoyable. I don't know if we'll watch it when the Celebrity season is over. I don't know if we'd enjoy watching regular people. (as an aside - is anyone watching Breaking Bad?? It's not a reality show but... anyone see it? It's horribly, and I mean HORRIBLY as in a bad-way, fascinating.)
Ron Paul. I am sad he won't be our Prez and will miss his campaign (this girl ROCKS!!!).
Teething. 12 teeth in Captain's little mouth now. T W E L V E ! He's not even 13 months old (will be on the 13th, though! YIKES!) These four molars have been tough but we're nearing the end. Two nights ago was restless. Last night was better but not perfectly sound. Tonight is lots of drool but a happy mood.
TGM - As mentioned in the Birthday Parties entry, we're in the early but serious stages of officially planning our next Family Disney World vacation (with Henry's family.) Even though I stuck my nose in the accomodations-planning portion for a short period of time, I have since given all authority of that responsibility to Pa Trippe. I know he will do a fantastic job in that department and I'd much rather focus on the itinerary portion of the trip. Too soon? NO WAY! Farnsworth and I do a bang-up job of this and with the wisdom of Tour Guide Mike, we are certainly expecting another smooth, relaxed, fully-packed, but well-rested vacation.

As Promised
I won't be doing non-stop Alabama Birth Coalition posts and to prove it, I'm gonna blog about something y'all might actually read!
We're enjoying a couple of really great family passes: the local zoo (with unlimited train rides) and the McWane Center. Both pay for themselves after 2 visits (for a family our size anyway) and will bring us MUCHO enjoyment! Here's some fun pics from the MC...

Have You Missed My "What's Up With Us" Posts?
I know I've slapped a few posts around here lately but none of them have been the personal, what's-going-on-with-the-fam type posts. Tonight I figured I'd try to hit the highlights and share a few pics to get you all caught up!
In Captain news, he has his first tooth and is scooting around all over the place. He's not technically crawling but he's definitely covering some major square-footage. He makes the big kids crack up when he bounces back and forth on his hands and knees. The 13th marked his 6 month birthday. How'd that happen so fast!?In family stuff, we went to the beach last weekend and returned Tuesday but because of our busted camera, didn't get any good pics to share. Pa Trippe took a couple but they were either fogged up by the humidity or showed my too-bouyant and scantily-clad (not really) body from a top-looking-down-into-pool-angle and I just didn't want to show you. The weather was great...hot at the right times, cool-ish breezes when needed, and a torrential downpour late in the afternoon when we needed a break from the sun. We had a great time.
In crunchy-Mommy love, I am working very hard, and starting to see success, with getting Ricki Lake to town, along with her Director Abby Feinstein for a pre-release showing of "The Business of Being Born." It hopes to be the "Unfortunate Truth" of the childbirth industry (childbirth & industry don't even deserve to go together but that's what's become of everything...) Anyway, I can't believe I'm actually getting so close to rubbing some major elbows with some real-life celebrities! More info on this soon, I'm sure!
In the "Make-A-Reservation-For-Me-In-The-Looney-Bin" category, I will share a crazy little development. Ready? We are preparing to sell our house and move back to Butterville! And if you think that's crazy, get this ... We're going to move in with my parents during the transition! I'll try to get a longer post on here about the 'hows' and 'whys' but just know that if I'm a little quiet, it's cuz we're pretty busy.
And BECAUSE of all of this, and one of the several reasons we are moving in with Ma & Pa Gardener is because of homeschooling. We haven't started yet but will start immediately after moving in with Mom & Dad. Ya see, as crazy as this might sound to non-ball-playing families...we'd REALLY like to be in a house CLOSER to the ballfields this year when we have 4 (yes, FOUR) playing. And I know that if we start school in our house NOW, I'll never get the house ready and we'll push back the selling. SO if we get OUT of the house and school elsewhere, we can have this house on the market very soon.
We're SO thankful my parents are cool enough for us to be able to hang with them for a little while. It will really be nice to be back "in town" and close to everything again. And I believe that being out of our house will prevent me from having too much more gray hair through the process.
In closing, I'll share a couple of pics from the week. Of course the first is Captain but then there's a couple showing the kids playing outside with their race track pieces dumping cars off the roller coaster into the water table. It's child abuse to send the kids outside without at least a little water to play with!
Hope you're all staying cool!

Too Tired For Text
So you're just getting pics tonight and probably more tomorrow...or whenever I get around to it.

We're At The Beach!
YES! We're on a teeny vacation! It's so nice being away for a little bit. Not only is it nice to just have new & beautiful scenery, we also love this trip because it's one we take with family. We always have a good time together.Here's a pic from our lunch at the "Smiling Fish Cafe." Yummy grouper and shrimp (which is something I rarely eat and haven't eaten at all since Katrina -- been too scared of the toxins the shrimp have absorbed.)
Anyway, I will post more pictures later (especially the cute ones ON the beach) but I thought I'd go ahead and get this one posted tonight.
Now it's time to hit the sack. Henry and I are the last ones still up and we're so tired! It's weird how 10:33 would cause us to have 'the night is still young' attitude at home but here, after a day of sun, shopping, and STRESSFULL FOOTBALL (yay and grrr...) we are totally pooped!
Burglars beware: We have a house/pet-sitter and a big, growling, muscular, don't-like-strangers dog so just STAY BACK! Seriously! AND we're gonna be home VERY soon! (Too soon actually...but we gotta get back to the real world.)

Messy But Makes A Point
Not the greatest 'do' but shows how short Indie's hair is now. We love it :) You can also see she's missing a few teeth!
Where's Your License?
The girls go for their first drive! It was no surprise to us that Indie zipped around pretty fast and Ray kept one foot on the brakes at all time.
Bubbles On The Balcony
Rocky enjoyed playing bubbles on the walkway of the condo. It was VERY windy through there. You can see the large amounts of construction in the background. We were in a really new area of PC with lots of new buildings going up all around. We were actually the very first guests in the condo we used. It was so nice and new!

Thunder Beach
Brosnan, Rocky, and He-Man at the beach. Yes, we found a place at the beach that wasn't damaged. It WAS, however, "Thunder Beach" meaning 60,000 Harleys and other Chopper-types all weekend. But hey, obviously, we were OK with it! :) Look at He-Man's GREEN EYES :)
