Adventure Is Out There!

Today was nice enough to bundle up and get some fresh air... deep breath, ahhhhh! We took a family walk over to the nature preserve and had some toddler sized adventures mountain biking, climbing summits and skiing down snowy embankments. We were laughing so hard, I was literally crying. Addie is so much fun when she is in her "pretend" mode.

Busch Gardens...

Love this image!
I fortunate enough to be married to an amazingly fun
man who happens to be the most hands-on, loving
father to my children I could ever ask for.
He is such a good buddy to both of our babes.

A Fearless Four Year Old
She rode her first "loop-t-loop" roller coaster... 4 times in a row!!!


Girls Morning Out...

Addie and I shared a fun girls morning out. I surprised her with a trip to the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique. (Thanks daddy for setting up the appointment for us!) She ate it up! She picked the blonde locks, because she thought she looked like Rupunzel. It was an absolute delight watching her get pampered. She literally pranced around the rest of the day!
(sniff, sniff) So grown up! (sniff, sniff)
For a kid who we usually have to beg or bribe to look at
a camera for us to snap a shot, boy did she sing
a different tune for the rest of the day!

Princess Surprise #2...

This shot was ALL Addie. She said it's where all princesses from the boutique were supposed to get their picture taken... notice the toe pop!
Daddy and his doll!




A sweet treat to wrap up a fun family dinner just for our princess!

Addie's second surprise of the day was a return to Disney World to have dinner with Cinderella. She was beyond excited and hammed it up with every character at the theme dinner, playing the part of the royal princess all too well!

The end of a fairy tale day...

I'm the QUEEN of the world!

We visited Sea World several different days and had a blast each time. The weather was gorgeous and we basically had the park to ourselves. Addie rode Shamu Express - the roller coaster - close to 10 times each day! The park attendants ate her up. She would get locked into her seat and then she'd give them a thumbs up that "Maverick" was ready to rock! Daddy and Mommy took turns as "Goose" her wingman.

Disney Parade = One Excited Child...

This is just a snippet of what everyone around us experienced while watching the parade. Every time, and I do mean every time a new character or float made its way around the corner, Addie jumped, cheered, clapped and announced who it was! It was hilarious and oh so precious at the same time.
