vacation bliss

October 18 2005
That was by far the best two day trip ever. I'll share some highlights and tomorrow when I get the USB cord I will share some pictures.

Sunday Night:
-One word: HOTTUB
-Tracie getting hurt and us lying about it and then Robin finding out that she really was hurt
-Bailey falling on her butt and getting a bruise the size of a softball
-The neon cross and how God spoke in the silence
-Praying together in the utter silence that we don't ever take the time to appreciate

Monday:
-Oversleeping on purpose!
-Forgetting the Dollywood tickets and having to go back and get them
-Megan, Tracie, Miss Lillian, the fiddle, and chicken hats...words cannot express how funny that was
-Me on a rollercoaster....WhAt?!
-The belts
-Dixie Stampede and eating dinner next to Joe
-Everyone drooling over the hot guy named Kyle on horseback...he even signed Tracie's hand
-Bonding...sharing moments and stories, learning each other, loving each other more, all while wearing fat pants and roasting marshmallows over gas logs (is that safe?)

Tuesday:
-Oversleeping AGAIN and having to rush to get out of the house on time
-Breakfast at Mel's Diner...enough said
-Beehive...a second heaven for all women
-Surprising Jade's sister while standing in front of a mirror ("I seeee you!")
-Eating Chinese in Sweetwater with Jade's sister's family
-Blowing a flat tire going 80 on I-75 and watching in wonder as Jade takes control and changes it
-A guy named Lawrence who felt convicted when he drove by so he came back and helped us
-Spending 7 hours in the car with Jade and Bailey...("we could have driven to Florida by now!")

All in all, it was a wonderful trip. I love my 8 sisters, and I would die without them. We had a great time, and I'm exausted! Goodnight!
