"What are you doing?" Josh questions as he comes up behind me in the dining room. I was sitting at the table with my leg propped up on the chair with my coffee resting on my knee while I searched flight information.

"Wouldn't you like to know" I smirk as I type in the dates, pressing search.

"April 6-8? What's that?" he asks as he takes a seat at the table adjacent to me.

"That is the weekend of spring break" I smile. "I was reinstated this morning" I add making a grin pull at his lips.

"You're going back to work?"

"For a while" I shrug. "At least until we get married."

"And then?" he questions, a smirk pulling at his lips.

"And then we have our honeymoon and maybe a little maternity leave not long after" I explain with a bright smile. The thought of having another baby running around the house filled me with a kind of excitement I haven't had in a long time. I was so beyond ready to expand our family. "We need to think of where we want to go by the way" I add.

"When? During spring break or our honeymoon?" he asks with a chuckle. "Seriously what are you doing?" he asks as he spins the laptop to face him. "Florida?" he asks, raising an eyebrow at me.

"We've been through hell this year" I sigh, leaning back in my seat. "Yet we prevailed. We're together and happier than ever" I smile. "And I think that calls for celebration."

"Celebration? What kind of celebration?"

"Morning" Emma says brightly as she waddles into the room with Olaf clutched to her chest. "What's for breakfast?" she asks. I quickly slam my laptop shut and stand up, scooping her up in my arms.

"What would you like mama to make?" I ask as I set her on the chair beside Josh.

"Cereal" she replies making me chuckle.

"I think mama can do that" I smile as I turn on my heels. I reach up and grab the Cheerios off the top of the fridge and pour them into a bowl before sliding it across the table towards my daughter. I return to my seat and rest my chin on my folded hands. "So" I start. "Baby girl what would you do if I said you could meet Olaf?" I ask causing Josh's eyes to widen.

"What?" Josh questions.

"Olaf" Emma exclaims. I chuckle, nodding my head.

"Olaf" I confirm. "What do you think?" I ask Josh hopefully.

He sighs, rubbing his neck. "I think it's gonna be a little pricey" he replies. "And what with the wedding and our future plans" he trails off.

"We have some money left over from the down payment and with me working again we'll be able to make the mortgage no problem" I insist. "What's the harm?" I ask innocently.

"There's no harm" Josh laughs. "I just didn't realize you were planning a trip to Disney World."

"Well" I smile, biting my lip. "We're going to Disney World."

"How long have you been planning this little trip?" Josh asks as he moves towards me, grabbing a box of things from my hands. I shrug innocently, following him into what will be the nursery soon. He drops the box onto the floor and crosses his arms over his chest. "Come on. This is obviously something you've been thinking about."

"It's not" I argue with a chuckle. "I found out about my vacation for spring break and I figured we could use some time away. Do you not agree?"

"No I completely agree" he smiles. "It just shocked me a bit. Are you sure we can afford it?" he asks worriedly, glancing around the room.
