The Jacobs Do Disney...day one

We are back from Disney World where we had so much fun and took way too many pictures!  If you don't care to see all these pictures then avert your eyes now and go ahead and keep looking away for a week or so!  Last week, we drove through these magical gates...where dreams come true!!!

We went to Downtown Disney and checked out this cool Lego Store.

Next, we shopped at The World of Disney...the kids had some spending money that was already burning a hole in their pockets!

After much and I mean much deliberation, they decided on a lollipop and a rice crispy treat.  Ha!

We were all totally overwhelmed by all the people, shops, and "stuff" that we decided that we should go ahead and check in to our hotel and relax as much as you can relax in Disney World.

We ate lunch, got settled in, and went swimming!

When we came back to the room, Mickey and Minnie surprised us!

We had a great first day, but that was just the beginning!

Agency D3 VBS

The entire Jacobs family had a fun exciting week at VBS!  John led recreation, I helped teach 2nd grade, and Agent Grace and Agent Carter were solving many cases in order to discover, decide, and defend what they knew about Jesus!  After a fun week of crafts, games, songs, Bible verses, Bible stories, and secret missions, we had 23 kids ask Jesus to be their Savior!!! 

the road to disney world

We are going to Disney World in just a few days and I am ready!!!  John and I have been planning this trip for months now and Disney has already taken all of our money so, it is time to go and have some fun!  We haven't told the kids yet and we don't really know how we are going to tell them...maybe, we'll just see if they figure it out on their own.  I just wanted to share with you some things that I've been working on during these months of planning.

My amazing SIL Steph made this super cute dress for Grace and I made the shirt for Carter Man.

Our Animal Kingdom shirts!

These are definitely my favorites!!!

Mickey Shirts!!!  I'm planning on making Grace's more girly...ribbons, polka dots?

Lastly, I made them autograph books.  After our trip, I plan on helping the kids add photos to them and making them into scrapbooks...we'll see if that actually happens, but that's the plan!

I'll be posting way too many pics of our trip soon!  So, come back if you like Disney pics and if you don't then you might want to stay away for awhile...ha!
