thursday letters

Dear Florida,

I'd like to thank you in advance for welcoming myself, the husband and my two monkey children. I hope you treat us well. May your sun shine on us and may your beaches be totally awesome. I can't wait to put my feet in the sand!

Returning Floridian,

K

Dear Cat,

Please do not tear up the house while we are away. Be kind to the lady with the accent... she will feed you. It would be much appreciated if you didn't jump on my bed immediately after getting out of the litter box. Thanks.

Don't want to skin a cat,

K

Dear Rice Krispy Treats,

I hate you because you are soooooooo good. Who knew that cereal and marshmellows could be so deliciouslystickyyummy.

Happy Snacker

Dear Kid and Snugglebug,

As excited as I am about our trip, it really is for YOU. I am so excited to watch you both experience a week at the beach and can't wait to see your excitement at Disney World.

Giddy Mom,

Dear Hubby,

Love you. I can't wait to start our adventure. Let's see if we can break our habit of nearly everything going wrong during a trip...

Going back to the Homeland....

This is where I began. I don't remember a single thing about living here. I was 2 1/2 when my mom and I moved to Texas to live with my grandparents while my dad did a year tour in Korea. Then we moved to OK and well... the rest is history.

I haven't been to Florida in 27 1/2 years. And in about 48 hours I'll be landing in the homeland with the husband, the kid, and the snugglebug. We are "too excited to sleep"!!!

This will be the kid's third airplane ride and snugglebug's first. I have a feeling the little snugglebuggy will LOOOVE it. She really is the adventurous one, always telling her "bubbie" "it's okay, it's really not scary!" Oh, seriously love that girl. And on the other hand, I completely can relate to the kid. I'm usually telling him to be brave when I know without a doubt I'd be terrified too.

Our plans include, but are not limited to:

playing at the beach

going to a boardwalk or two

playing at the beach

seafoooood

playing at the beach

walking along the beach

getting tan on the beach

disneyworld

playing at the beach

I'm sure we'll be bringing back plenty of sand... whether we want to or not. ;)
