Sunday we were with our home church in Fairview Heights. In spite of the cold and the snow, which seems to be following us, it was wonderful to be in Illinois for church. We spent a wonderful week there. We had Krispy Kremes and fried ravioli and other good things, visited with friends over a meal or a cup of coffee. I had a couple of chatterfests with friends, as we tried to catch up with each other's lives.
After one more lunch with good friends, we left for Little Rock Sunday afternoon. It was time to see Camille and how ready we were. Our plans were to leave for Florida early early Monday morning. As we prepared to leave by 5:00 a.m., we rose to find four inches of snow on the ground and more falling. And the snow continues to follow us. We left and slowly drove south and were not so soon below the freeze line, where it was only raining.
Camille is a good traveler, but after 17 hours in the car, we were all exhausted. We are with Jim and Donna in Daytona Beach. Today we walked on the beach. Camille hunted shells and chased the gulls and squealed and giggled. It was her first time to see the ocean.
I have inhaled the sea air, listened to the waves, enjoyed Camille and good friends. What a blessing today has been.
In the morning we plan to meet Arial and the other princesses. Our little princess is just as excited as she can be. Treating her to this experience is wonderful for us. Her hugs and kisses and "I love you Grammy" are pretty wonderful, too.

LOVE IT! Each of you deserve this special time together. What a blessing! Have fun today with little princess, Camille, and all the other princesses at Disney World. LOVE to ALL! Sue
All I want to know is why everytime one of you guys visit the states from Honduras, we get lots of snow. We begged Karen to stop praying for it when her and Dorian were here! Now that you two are in the states it is starting all over again! :) Have a great time with Mickey! Sharon Mc
