It was time to replace the decals on my van (Poor Russell had lost his head) and I thought about this original post. Guess who I did NOT have to replace - AGAIN????!!!! It has now been almost 6 years and everyone else has been replaced six times.......

I thought I would share with you the latest addition to our Disney Decal Family. And I figured you would enjoy having another good laugh at my expense!
You know it's official when I put the cat in Mickey ears on the van!!! How cute is that? It just makes me giggle!
A fun story to go with my decals - I
am NOT a sticker person when it comes to cars. I even make the dealers
take their advertisement stickers off whenever I purchase a new (to us)
vehicle. I like my cars to be clean and tidy. Then 4 years ago at
Christmas, my brother Marc gives me these 4 little Disney people to put
on my van. He knows how I am - but he also knew they were wearing
Mickey Ears! How could I resist? I screamed with delight, giggled
hysterically and they have been on my van ever since. This is actually
my fourth or fifth set - I've lost count. After several months, they
begin to peel off and I replace them with new ones. All except the
Princess one (Anne) - she's original! They don't even make her any
more! She, for some strange reason, has never peeled, never cracked. I
take the other three off, replace them, and she stays the same. I
guess it's just because it's Anne. Ha! Although I will admit (and I
can't believe I am doing so) that it is something I have prayed about. I
like the Princess sticker so much, and knowing they don't make this one
anymore - I don't want to replace her with the little girl. So I am
guilty of asking the Lord to keep her in tact. I know, I know - it
sounds ridiculous. But I have found that even the ridiculously small
things that are important to us - are important to the Lord as well.
Not because they are important - but because I am
important. So - I have learned to pray about the little ridiculous
things as well as the big things that are important to Him.
So - it's funny when I say that I
am NOT a sticker person when it comes to cars. Seems I say a lot of
things about myself like that and then God changes my heart and mind in
some way. "I'm not an animal person, I'm not a sticker person." Ugh!
Have you seen the side of my van lately? Maybe I'm out of
control.......
