Once we got to the Customs kiosk, it took about 10 minutes to be cleared, or maybe less. <BR/><BR/>I am going to post some photos of the aquarium in Newport, KY tomorrow. I have so much to tell all of my blogging friends about our trip. I won't have to worry about things to write about for a while, but don't want to bore everyone either. ;-)<BR/><BR/>Blessings,<BR/>MaryMaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08175754179624182953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7944740176048431569.post-20843939822703769502008-01-12T18:46:00.000-08:002008-01-12T18:46:00.000-08:00Karen,I'm glad you enjoyed the photos of the ice o...Karen,<BR/><BR/>I'm glad you enjoyed the photos of the ice on the trees.

I will pray that he is safe while working and that your finances improve considerably over 2008. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for the kind comments here. I do hope you are able to stay online. I have missed you while away.

It is so good to have you back. I enjoyed your first story here and I do hope I'm able to enjoy the rest of them. I loved the trees with the Ice covered on them. I think that is a beautiful scene. I'm glad the roads were in good shape too. Sorry it took yall so long to get across the border. Maybe in time, it won't take as long. My DH and his Uncle just came thru Windsor on Tuesday night as well. They had to make a run up into Canada as their first run. They went to Fredricton, New Brunswick first and from there they went to Sainte Foye, Quebec, and from there, Ottowa, Ontario and from there, Mississaugua, Ontario and then on down to Windsor back to the States. They didn't have passports either, but they are going to have to get them tho. Their Company told them they would need them. It was a bit chilly on yall in Florida. That was the week it was very cold everywhere. I know your Grandson's will remember this trip with yall forever. I can't wait to see all the pictures you took. I was 34 years old when I had my first daughter and 36 years old when our youngest was born. I don't actually think I could have another one at my age of 45. I don't think my nerves could handle it. LOL. I will be praying for your neices to have safe deliveries. Take your time my friend unpacking and doing everything you need to do. Take care my friend and have a great evening. May God Bless You and Yours.<BR/><BR/>Love & Hugs,<BR/>Karen H.<BR/>P.S. "THANK YOU" for the encouraging words you left on my comments the other day.

New Years and the day after. Other than that we enjoyed it, as we don't like extremely hot weather. Three years ago when we took the boys and Mom, it was so hot we didn't really enjoy ourselves. There were lots of animals out in Animal Kingdom because of the cooler temps. That was great.<BR/><BR/>Yes, I wouldn't have wanted to have a baby at 40. I had Michelle at 19 - almost 20 and Brandon was born when I was 46. That is better as I could still be silly and have lots of fun with them.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for stopping by.

Glad you had a good time in the States, but yes, the time you were here it was cold, wasn't it? For Florida, anyway.<BR/><BR/>Babies, hmm? And 2 at nearly the same time. Bless 'em, Lord!

I doubt I will post all of them or you will be sick of seeing them. LOL<BR/><BR/>Meeko is indeed home. We went and got him first thing this morning and he was ecstatic. He didn't sit still for over an hour. Just kept running back and forth between us. You should have seen him when we left to drop off the boys stuff. He looked so dejected but we weren't gone long. Then he did the running in circles again. <BR/><BR/>Looking forward to getting your new email. I sent a card to the old one, so you probably didn't get it.<BR/><BR/>Love you too.
