My Dearest Karsynn-
Words cannot explain the love the Daddy and I have for you. You are a blessing from God. I'm so glad that He chose you for us and us for you. Not a day goes by that we don't thank Him for you. You fit us perfectly, and we love you so much! Thank you for bringing so much love and laughter to our lives.

Happy Gotcha Day, Karsynn!

Love,
Mommy and Daddy

Our Little Beach Bum!

It is hard to believe that our vacation will soon be coming to an end. You work so hard all year long and look so forward to a much needed vacation, and it just seems to FLY by. Everyone should have to take a mandatory 2 week minimum vacation per year, but that's just my opinion. Karsynn has had a great time at the beach. She loved Orlando and all the parks, but she truly is a beach bum. She loves the water! She is as brown as a little bean. Tonight we had dinner at Charley Horse and ate All U Can Eat Crab Legs...YUMMY!!! Karsynn even tried them and actually liked them. Troy and I were stuffed like two turkeys when we left. Tomorrow is our last night in Daytona, and we plan to take in a race at Daytona 500. I think it's the Subway 250 or something like that. I'm not a race fan, but it should be pretty exciting and NOISY. Karsynn and I are only going because it's something Daddy wants to do. It's a night race, so at least it won't be so hot. Anyways, we'll fly home on Saturday morning early. Just a quick 1 hr. and 26 min. flight and we're home. I love it! We've had a great time, but we (Karsynn and I) miss Bentley and the rest of our family. We're considering a nice winter vacation at the beach in Dec., so we'll see.

Vacationing in Florida

We are in Florida, and it has been a busy, busy trip! We spent 3 days in Orlando visiting Disney World's Magic Kingdom, Sea World and Sea World's waterpark, Aquatica. Karsynn had a BLAST! We are currently in Daytona Beach at our resort enjoying the beach and swimming. We fly home on Saturday. Karsynn loved her flight down to Florida. She kept waving out the window to Grandma, G-Pa, Papaw and Mamaw. It was so cute!
