Well, just as soon as we learned that we're going to Colorado in April for a ski trip, she quickly went to work. I came down to the kitchen one morning to find her as busy as a bee decorating a folder. This is what she created...
Now, the "crash", "boom", "ouch" words worry me just a tad. Ok...A LOT!!! Maybe she's trying to tell me something!This nifty folder contains 20 sheets of information she printed out in regards to shopping, slopes, our accomodations, you name it! Trust me, Abby has every angle covered, and then some! Here's the names of the "easiest slopes" in Breckenridge that she typed up. The girls and I have decided that we're going to stick with the one named "Snowflake"...how bad can that one be, right??? Piece of cake!!! Boy, don't I hope!
Here's the pile of papers she printed out about EVERYTHING we'd ever want to know about Breckenridge! Abby has always looked at every trip we've taken as an adventure and she gets so excited about it! It really is fun to watch her!
I'm sure she'll be searching the Internet, again, in no time at all to check out the weather conditions in Colorado, and anything else she hasn't already researched. So, if you ever need a travel agent who knows her business inside and out, call on Abby...trust me, she won't disappoint! :)
P.S. If you would, please say a prayer for this sweet lady, Shannon, who'll be undergoing heart surgery on Jan. 8th. I know she appreciates it so much!!!

Well done Abby! Theres a career right there!
What a gift she has! ( Although the word "Crash" on the folder did jump out at me too!!)
Way to go! You should rent her out! Holiday planner anyone?
I love CO...some perfect little towns in the moutains! Great job with your daughter...she looks like she has it all covered!

You are going to love Colorado. We were there for 4 weeks several years back and it was the trip of a lifetime for us. There is so much to see and do there. Historical museums,Focus on the Family, a place called Garden of the Gods(unique rock formations like you wouldn't believe)I could go on and on because they were having record snowfall while we were there, and we did not ski even once. There were just too many other fun things to do and see. Jackie
Great job Abby! Does she hire out? I know you're all really looking forward to this vacation, how fun that she's getting it all organized for you!
Hi April
Looks like Abby has done wonderful research into your trip. She definately has a flair for this this type of work. I do hope your trip has a lot less of the Ouch and Crash and much more of the Awesome and Fa La La!! You will have to let her do a blog post about all she has planned for your trip.

Traveling is as much fun BEFORE you leave as the trip when done Abby-style. It's nice to "meet" you.
April,
How much fun to have your own personal travel agent in house! Such a neat story, and we want to hear all about the vacation!
Enjoyed your visit, and I look forward to visiting you again! You have a lovely family! :-)
XO,
Sheila :-)
How neat that Abby finds all the fun stuff!!! Looks like she is doing a GREAT job for your trip to Colorado! We have been there and it is just BEAUTIFUL!
What a great job Abby! There's no telling what's in her future with the ability to think and organize like that!!
We went to Breckenridge for our honeymoon but have never been back. It was absolutely beautiful. :)
That Abby is a girl after my own heart!
She did such a wonderful job April! I love the folder and notice the "crash" word right off and just laughed!
I do hope you all have a great time...I'm sure you will with Abby having every thing planned out to perfection!

wow, that's awesome! can i borrow her? lol. i'm heading to boston in a couple weeks with my mom & cathy. we're going to visit my sister who lives up there now. woo hoo!
oh i forgot to tell you that i love your new background!
Abby is a girl after my own heart! April, I just read an article that a tourism coordinator is one of the highest paying jobs!!! Abby...there you go, honey! Yay! That is so awesome!
April, I think the Snowflake slope sounds like a great slope....hope we are right on that one! lol
And I'll keep Shannon in my prayers. Hugs to you today, my sweet friend!
Thank goodness there's not a paper shortage...that's awesome! I may need her services in the near future! You have a great looking family!
Wish you still lived in Madison...there's a lot of bloggers around here...more from Madison/Huntsville than Decatur! You seem to have lived in most of the same places as I have. Hubby just left a job in Georgia...and may go back!
I'm kinda wordy...I really meant to stop at "Thanks for stopping by my blog!" Debbie
April,
First off, please do not laugh but when I first read your blog title, I thought it said AA. I thought to myself well the alcoholics need AA... then I went back and noticed it was 3 As. Duh!
I love to go online and look up trips as well. We haven't been on vacation in almost 4 years so it's just dreaming for me but it's fun anyway.
I have only been skiing twice in my life and I never left the intermediate slope. It wasn't for me. I hope you guys have fun!
That is so cool. I can't wait until my kids can do some of the foot work. Anna is one smart cookie. Love the folder too.
Pretty impressive and very smart! Wow! She really has been busy, huh?
Way to go Abby girl!
Before I forget, I absolutely love your new blog layout! Very nice and so you! Love it.
Have a great evening!
Hi April,
Thanks for visiting my blog :)
Wow! You sure do have your own little travel agent there!
I love that she gets so excited!
Tracey
How cool is she love the folder by the way!
Abby is amazing! I prayed for Sharon! What does Abby want to do when she grows up? I love her organization! I totally agree. Snowflake is the way to go : ). I can't wait to see pictures!
Too Cool!!
I do the same thing when I plan a trip! It really comes in handy when you get there and realize the internet doesn't work very well or the GPS can't find your location. Make sure to add Mapquest maps just in case (good thing we did for our Disney trip)! Great job Abby!
