A Quick Trip

This last week Ryan had some time off so we took a trip to Charlotte and spent the night at The Great Wolf Lodge. A hotel with a water park inside of it. We had a blast Ellie was tall enough for all rides but one. And Adelyn was able to go on her own slide. I was surprised they they let her on :) I was nervous because she had to go on her own but she LOVED it! Click on the video to see her come down.

Ellie The Explorer

Ellie is always exploring! Especially during soccer while everyone else is running after the ball! :) When asked her favorite place to explore she replied "Disney World and Alaska." "But I don't really like to explore space, because of the bad space aliens."

A Delightful New Stage

Adelyn has started testing spa treatments on her self every meal! But on the bright side I have can do a sink spray down in record time! She is also talking a lot more besides the usual "stop it" "no, no" and "ouch" she says things like "crazy sister", "high chair ", "I need help", "I need daddy" ... and the list goes on!

Pixie Dust!

I wasn't kidding when i said that we are addicted to Disney! We got another opportunity to go and we went for it. Ed and Debbie were in Florida for a confrence and our dear friends from here offered to let us in on there discount since we already used ours :) It was fun being with family and showing our friends the ropes!

A Southern Snow Storm

After several false alarms the snow actually came!

Stripes and Mistletoe

We had a whirlwind Christmas! Santa made a stop to our house early to drop off a brand new wagon! Then we hopped on a plane and went on a ship! We cruised the Caribbean and Mexico flaunting our family of 15 in striped pj's. Then off to Texas and at the stroke of 8:00 we celebrated a New Year!

Adelyns Big Milestone!

In November we took the girls to Disney World, which was Addy's first trip. We all had a blast. Ellie was tall enough for almost all the rides and bravely went on all of them even Expedition Everest! Addy loved all of the ride especially Small World. Ellie's favorite ride was Splash Mountain. And as always we were all sad to leave. We call it PDD (Post Disney Depression)
