A Room With A View

Just woke up to this view and E said, "I can see that little thing from here." It took me a second to realize what she meant.

Snow

It's starting to melt but it was here for about 2 days.



The Croods

Started off our Spring Break with a family movie date. Since it was a date there was a little kissing...LMA snapped our pic.





House plans

Cleaning up I found LMA's future house plans. So glad she has plenty of room for the hedgehogs on the 7th floor.

The Toy

Here it is... greatest toy ever made and Caroline Abbott having a bad hair day.

Disney II

Love these girly outings but J was missed.
It's so nice having "back up" when these two argue.
Which is often.



I really try to remind the girls that they are blessed. Blessed, not lucky. Not just because of the things they get to do or have but because we have each other. LMA said she was the "luckiest girl in St. James" and Elle insisted she was... then the fighting began. Sigh... did I mention the arguing?

Oh Disney!

Made a last minute decision to go to Disney On Ice. J had his conceal & carry class so what else were we to do?

I was really impressed with this show. LMA wasn't interested but I talked her into going and now she can't wait to go again. Our favorite part was when Ariel "gets her legs"... amazing!

We sat in the 6th row (thank you Crystal) and the only bad part was it was hard to get a picture without someone's head getting in the shot. Those skaters were zipping around so fast I was lucky to get any shots at all. E's favorite part was the $22 light up toy - when they told me how much it cost I thought he was joking and laughed and said, "Really, how much?" Guess the joke is on me... in so many ways. Once again Grammie to the rescue - thank you for sending talent show gifts so the girls could see this amazing show!









This is the second time this week we've been here... so I snapped ANOTHER pic.

Ok maybe a few more pics...

Best part for me was when Nelly came out! I'm such a nerd!











TSwift

Had so much fun at the concert. More pics to come. And one of the chart that started it all.

Life of El

Watched Life of Pi - E only made it half way and lost interest but decided to draw a picture of herself in a boat with a tiger. LMA had lots of questions but watched the entire movie.

My little winner

This one did so well tonight - she sang in front of all those people! Sooooo proud of her - LMA didn't perform until 1st grade. It broke her heart that she didn't win. We gave both girls flowers and when I handed E her's she exclaimed, "Did I win?" They are both winners to me.



Talent Show 2013

So proud of this one and all her hard work! Couldn't have won without her piano teacher... what a team these two make!

Leprakn Slide - Fre to all

E had no desire to help with her little project but I thought "we" did a good job anyway!

Happy bday to me

I got a new lens... just in time for our trip to DC. Thanks hon!

Rise of the Guardians

Playing with toys while watching Rise of the Guardians. J took her to the theater to see this when LMA and I saw Wicked. She loved it and it just happened to be released on her bday.

J brought the girls to school and I guess E brought her AGD to school today. I remember telling her not to but I guess the rules don't apply on your birthday.

She's no longer a baby!

My little chunch turned 6 today! I love this little monkey... We woke her up with candles and a song and she asked us to put her to sleep like that too. So we lit a candle and sang happy birthday again. So cute.

Luggage for our trip - I can only image how many people she's going to hit with this thing on our trip.

Trivia Night 2013

Once again... not the smartest people in the room but not the dumbest either! Fun night. Check out all our loot!

Best Friends Forever



Birthday Girl

Thank you Grammie!!!

Tired



American Girls

What a day - these girls shopped like pros! I am embarrassed to say that I spent more here than when I went shopping on Rodeo Drive. The store and bistro were so crowded you could hardly walk around. Nothing like a 2 hour wait so a doll can eat a fake cupcake.

We celebrated E's birthday today with her cousins. Thank you Grammie for her doll that she opened in the store and hasn't put down since.

Each girl got a new AGD accessory and we saw the new movie OZ. Good day - I am pooped but the girls are on an ice cream and cupcake high.

Happy 6th Bday Belle!!! Thanks for being the silliest part of our family. You always make me smile.
