Vocational Trinity: The Best Part of Spring Break?

This.

I'll scream it from the rooftops....I loved being with my little girl 24/7. Of course I LOVED the extra time in the evenings with DH too (and love the fact that tonight we are having our "Disney Date Night" which is having our girl put to bed and then we watch a cute movie all to
ourselves and then cuddle the evening away afterwards, maybe even some very neglected bonding....) but really - I've felt so pulled in so many directions that to just have some unrivaled time with my precious daughter, who is growing WAY too FAST, is just delicious!

I haven't seen a booth that takes pics like this in forever! While all three of us were at the mall this afternoon I saw this machine and jumped in with Rachael for some fun. This scanned
version is a little blurry - but I still love it! Rachael loved watching the screen as you can see, and wondering where the voice was coming from. Also, she chose the "theme" of the pic - I was going with the Easter one, and she moved the button herself - I didn't even know what she clicked on till DH got the pics out, and how perfect is it LOL!!!!! She's MY angel!

This week has been so fun - trips to the library, trips to see my niece and sister (and take pics), planting a vegetable garden, the start of swingset construction, family time, time with Rach's Godparents and our dear friends, time with my husband, and just time as a family. It's long overdue. Tomorrow we look forward to another special day - Palm Sunday. It's a triumphant day for many reasons, as well as one of preparation - and it is so special to share that with Rachael and see the joy in her face as she waves her own palm fronds. I just can't wait to have her and DH together tomorrow morning for that and join in prayer and Glory.

I'll have lots of pics to share and stories when I'm not being called downstairs to begin our DDN :) Gotta love Disney and Date night together in your own home :)

Before I head downstairs, I'll leave with one more pic from our week :) Gosh, I'm just so happy tonight...

Ok - must be off to share some much desired time with my wonderful and awesome blessing, Matt :) God Bless and Much, MUCH love!!!!!

I cannot believe how big Rach is getting!!! What a cute photo strip of the two of you. I miss you much. I am looking forward to seeing you soon! Are we still on?

I love you and am so happy you had a wonderful week - your family really needed the time together. God Bless you, my dear friend.

Let's talk soon!

I am sooo w/you Becca! I want to be w/my baby Bean all the time. I would love to spend every waking minute w/her. I hate working full time and missing all that the daycare gets to share w/her. Hopefully I'll be going back to finish school soon and be able to go full time bc even then I'd still get more time w/her. I could just hear the excitement in your voice as you talked about your little angel. I feel exactly the same.
Date night is awesome. I agree! My hubby and I very rarely do that but I think it's bc we always include the Bean. Our 2 year anniversary is coming up and we're going away for the weekend. We are taking her along bc I do not want to be apart from her for that long. :) Okay I'm rambling. CYA
