HELLO OUT THERE.....WE ARE STILL ALIVE...

PLEASE tell me you haven't forgot about me and you still want to be my blogger buddy!!!  I know it seems like we have fallen off the edge of the earth.:(  I hear it all the time from lots of family and friends....UMMM...Do you know it has been over a year since you blogged?!?  Please forgive me...I promise I am going to try and do better!  SO, since it has been over a year, AND I have NOT recorded some important happenings in our family...I am just going to start with Summer Vacation 2012 and try to backtrack.  SO.... Here is trying to be a better blogger!! :) SIGH.

At the end of May we ventured to Destin for 4 days to try to get in some relaxation before our Disney World Marathon.  We stayed at the Emerald Grande Resort and had a fabulous time! It was a beautiful resort and the ammenties were fabulous....Here is some proof:)



Here is a pic of the lighthouse that was outside our condo window...IT was so beautiful at night.

The resorts private beach....we had to be boated over...the girls thought it was so neat.

Hallie ready to swim:)

The girls on our boat ride before dinner one night...can't you tell Hannah Claire is real excited about me taking her pic?!
Hallie posing:)


                  The pool....the girls couldn't get enough of it!!!  
    
Jumping in the pool...I think it took me about 4 attempts to get this picture right...Hallie wanted to catch live action of the jump..ha!


Last BUT not least...I don't think my girls would care if our rooms in our condo were clean, spacious, etc....BUT, they always judge our condo by the animals that are left for us.  They give this resort a 10 because Hallie says the elephant was perfect.  I am a little sad because I don't have any family beach pics to share, but it was extremly windy and NO ONE (with the exception of me..sniff..sniff) wanted to get dressed up.  Kyle promises when we go back to the beach in the Fall he will grant that wish for me. 

One more VERY IMPORTANT THING TO SHARE....on our first day of vacation, Wyndam Timeshare Resorts (the time share we own in), had a contest where you could write a short story about your most memorable family vacation and enter to to WIN a weeks vacation...all inclusive...to any of their resorts in the world.  For those of you reading who went to ECHS...I put my Mrs. Campbell skills to the test and wrote my heart out.  GUESS WHAT.....I WON!!!!  Now, the real hard part is trying to decide where I want to go....

 I PROMISE THAT OUR ADVENTURES IN DISNEY WORLD WILL BE UP SOON!
