DISNEYLAND!!!!

Hey folks, here we are: the long awaited Disneyland vacation! We had an adventure (story for another time) flying to LA, and had a fantastic weekend with the Chicos (minus hand, foot and mouth disease for Will and 104.1 fever for Lydia) prior to the Disney extravaganza. Thank goodness Sebi and his mommy and daddy were able to come meet us at the park in the evenings. They're the best. We saw parades and rode rides. It's a Small World was my favorite. Who doesn't like a catchy tune and hundreds of dolls?

Here I am waving to Mary Poppins at a parade. This was Chico's favorite part, as you can tell by the picture.

Ok, on for the REAL reason we went to Disneyland: THE PRINCESSES!!!!
Here I am in line to see my first ever, real live princess.

Giving Will a high five for surviving the hour+ wait.

BELLE!


JASMINE!!!


ARIEL!!!


If that wasn't enough, I even went to have lunch with the princesses!

This is Aurora/ Sleeping Beauty/ Briar Rose. Don't we look like twins?

Cinderella!

This is me waiting to see who might possibly come to my table next....

And this is the look I give when I'm told to be patient.

Aaah! Here she is! It's Snow White!





And what about Will you might ask? What did he like about Disneyland? Well, his experience pretty much went like this:


so here's a couple of random cute pics. just because.

Daddy's Home again....but you already knew that.

Kackie came out to help us get ready for daddy's return and to welcome him home. Thank you again Kackie!!!


He came bearing a mustache, abu dhabi t-shirts, and small wooden camels. Thanks. a lot.







We, on the other hand, had a free antique piano from our neighbors as a welcome home gift.

He loves it, and we love him!

Bike A Thon

We had a bike-a-thon at preschool.  I got to decorate my trike and take it to preschool, where a police officer taught us bicycle safety and then we rode in circles for ten minutes.  It was awesome.



Can you guess which one is mine? 












That's right! How did you guess?


Watch out gravel blaster, the princess mobile is coming through!



Catching up

Yes, yes, yes, we know.  It's been ages since we posted a blog.  I won't make any excuses but instead I'll get right to the highlights of this past spring so that I can tell you about what's really on my mind: Disneyland.  That's right folks.  After daddy returned home from his deployment, we went to Disneyland.  It was the coolest thing ever, but before we get to that - feast your eyes on this:

This is me being cute and girly while my friend Sebi was visiting for a few days.
This is Sebi. He's my beau.



This is us dying eggs at our good friends' house.  It was my first time, and we had lots of fun.

We even let Will have an egg to play with.
Instead, he destroyed it.

And this is me all dolled up on Easter Sunday. Have a mentioned that I love pretty dresses?  I had to change 3 times that morning before finally deciding on this one.



Aww, isn't he just the cutest?


Happy much belated Easter!
