5 MORE DAYS...we have been looking forward to and waiting for the day to arrive when we will board the airplane and fly away to NEW YORK CITY!! The kids are so excited, and so are Chris and I.
A few years ago Mike and Debbie warned us all that they would be having the reunion of 2012 in Virginia. Chris and I started saving our points. We knew it would take a lot of them and we wanted to be able to go. It is nothing short of a miracle. We were able to have enough points from a program at his work to be able to buy our airfare, rental car, 6 nights in hotels all over New York, Discovery passes into Niagarra Falls, airport parking...almost every detail was taken care of. It will take some of our own money, but nothing comared to the cost it would be for such a great trip.
I don't know why we are so blessed, but I am sooo grateful that we had the opportunity to be in Nauvoo with our family last year, and that we will be able to tour the rest of the Church History Sites in New York this year. That has been a dream of mine for many years and I almost can't believe it has all worked out!!
We will be gone for 16 days. Mike and Debbie have planned an awesome reunion for us. We are excited to see the sites as well as spend lots of time with family. The kids are so excited to see their cousins. Brinley keeps telling me that she is most excited for #1-to ride on an airplane because she has never done this before, and #2- to get to play with the Virginia Maddie. We have 2 Maddie cousins, so that is why she is known as the Virginia Maddie.
Lots to do before we leave...but we are so excited!!
