Posted - Mar 30 2013 : 06:58:46 AM We have 190 teenagers leaving VERY early on Monday morning to fly to Florida to play at Disney for band, orchestra and choirs. And my Natalie is one of them. I'm praying for safe travels there and back and that they make so many happy memories. Thank you for the prayers in advance!

Posted - Apr 07 2013 : 4:49:01 PM Well, Nat and all the others are back in Wisconsin- safe and sound and very very very tired!! Has been a lazy day at home with lots of stories!! The Semi-truck will be bringing all of the instruments and suitcases back tomorrow- which means to me lots of laundry tomorrow night when I get home from work! She had a GREAT time and I am so glad so got to go!!

Posted - Apr 05 2013 : 4:40:23 PM I am glad Nat and the other kids are having a good time around the tornado warnings. What a lot of memories she will have and the experiences of going. It must have been sort of nice at home but I am sure you missed the noise and activity you will get back when Nat gets home. hugs darlene

Posted - Apr 01 2013 : 7:28:09 PM You're right, Lori, that the message I'd send to Natalie, "Laissez Les Bon Temps Roulez! Let the good times roll." I can't wait to see pictures. Hugs. Marly

Posted - Apr 01 2013 : 05:09:00 AM The alarm went off at 3:00am- made a stop to the post office and dropped a couple bills in the mail- stopped at my moms at about 4:10 woke her up so Nat could say goodbye, one more hug &kiss and I Love You to Grandma and then to the school...she just texted me and said they just got to O'Hare....it will be a quiet week at my house. I'm hoping if my knee is strong enough to do some Spring cleaning and stay busy! Will keep everyone updated- thank you again for all the well wishes and prayers for all of these young people, chaperones, and teachers and of course the families that are at home.
Love to you!!

Posted - Mar 31 2013 : 2:17:16 PM Lori, praying for your daughter and her friends to have a safe, fun adventure at Disney. It reminds me of when I was in school (we wont say when that was, but my jeans were acid washed!) and we made the same trip with our band. We still talk about it to this day. She's making memories that will last her a lifetime!
