Fall fun...

Fall is such a fun time at our house. We always have lots of activities to do each year like going to the pumpkin patch, visiting Connor's Amaizing Acres, seeing Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween, going to the zoo's Spooktacular, and of course dressing up for Halloween. So that means I'll have LOTS of posts coming up with all the Fall fun we've had. 

This year, Addi participated in Spirit Week at her dance studio. Unfortunately, she only goes to dance once a week right now, so she was only able to dress up on Saturday. But she definitely took advantage of Pajama Day!




When we got home, I got her Halloween gifts ready for her friends at school. I think the kids are going to LOVE them!


Addi even tested them out during lunch time. She said her milk tasted "even better" because of the straw :)

More Fall fun coming up this week!

Tooth Fairy Visit...

We tucked Addi Kate's lost tooth in the pocket of her Tooth Fairy pillow last night. We explained how the Tooth Fairy only comes when we are fast asleep. So off to bed we went...


And when we woke up, not only was Addi Kate's tooth gone, but the Tooth Fairy left an official report of her tooth, along with $2...

What a fun Tooth Fairy visit!

Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween, 2017

We had a great time at Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party this year. What made it even more magical was having Jilly and Pops tag a long!  They had never been to Disney World, so it was fun sharing the experience with them and watching Addi get excited showing them her favorite rides.

Of course we had to take a picture in front of the Magic Kingdom with all the pretty pumpkins and landscaping...


And of course our trip would not be complete without a picture in front of Cinderella's castle...


We were able to meet a few princesses this time too...



That evening we saw the Halloween Parade. Addi and Daddy waited patiently for the Headless Horseman to kick off the parade...


The next morning we picked up Jilly and Pops from Fort Wilderness and couldn't resist taking a pic in front of all the Halloween decorations...


Then we headed back to the park for more rides and princesses...




There is definitely not enough time to see and do everything available, but it's always a magical time! See ya real soon!

Aunt Tedra's Visit...

Aunt Tedra came to Florida and spent some MUCH NEEDED time with us! We had lots of fun catching up. Addi and Aunt Tedra had fun creating a pumpkin with...fingernail polish and water!?!?!? 


We bought some styrofoam pumpkins from the dollar store, but they didn't turn out so well. So we tried using just a regular pumpkin and it turned out GREAT!




I think Addi and Aunt Tedra enjoyed playing with SnapChat filters the most though...





Crazy girls! 

Our time together is never long enough, so we are already looking forward to our visit to Texas soon.
