Disney World 2008

FINALLY, I was on my way to Disney World! On the plane I read up on the evacuation procedure. One can NEVER be too prepared.

Day ONE: Epcot. Here is one of the few family photo shots we have.I LOVE Mushu, sadly Mulan wasn't going to be around all day. Mommy was disappointed!


I had lunch with the princesses. Belle greeted me when I walked in. I got a professional photo of the two of us. I told Mommy and Daddy how beautiful she was! Sleeping Beauty, Alice in Wonderland, Cinderella, and Jasmine also came to say hello after lunch. I was in HEAVEN!


Waiting for the bus to take us back to the hotel for a little swim and dinner.
Day TWO: Magic Kingdom
WOW! Cinderella's castle! I never thought I would make it here... dreams really do come true!
After a 45 minute wait, I finally got to see Mickey and Minnie!



Another 45 minute wait and I got to hug Ariel! I think she was real!


Daddy and I rode Dumbo together! It was a long line, but I made it!
ok, Mommy brought my baba's knowing that we would be here late and that I would get cranky at some point. She did point out that when I turn 5, I have to leave baba's (also known as bobbies) in my bed. I do love them SO much!

The Castle looked amazing at night time. It was all lit up! We stayed for the fireworks. Tinkerbell flew out of the top of the castle and flew right over our heads!

What a day! We spent 12 hours at Magic Kingdom! After the fireworks we followed the mob to the exit. I was asleep in a matter of minutes! It is exhausting having this much fun!


Day THREE: Downtown Disney

Mommy and I walked a mile and a half to go to Downtown Disney to shop! It was a fun walk!



In the first store I hit the jackpot~ PONIES! I got to stuff as much stuff as I could into a box... all for under $20. At that price, mommy stuffed just about everything! I got 2 ponies and all the princess dresses!



The next store we went to had a "make your own Tiara" station. So guess what I got?




Day FOUR: Disney Hollywood Studios

Mommy and I head here by ourselves because daddy had to work.




We saw lots of shows! Ariel's Voyage, Playhouse Disney (with Mickey, Pooh, Little Einsteins, and Manny), Beauty and the Beast, The art of Animation, and High School Musical 3!



Again, never go anywhere without a baba because someone may start to get tired... Here I am just playing with it!



The best ride was the Toy Story 3D ride, where you got to play games! You even won prizes, they were pretent though! Mr. Potato Head was talking to us in line!



You can't go to Disney World and not come home with Mouse ears! Of Course, I was willing, but mommy wouldn't let me! She had to bribe me to put these on for a picture! I can be so difficult sometimes!



Day FIVE: Golfing and Pony rides

We went golfing at Mickey's Winter Summerland.





We are at a VERY expensive McDonalds, things were double the price here. I guess they have to pay for the cool outside look somehow!

Lasly, PONY rides! I wanted to ride a big horse, but they said you had to be 9. So I settled on a pony ride!

I was very sad to leave. I really just wanted to live there!
Let Mommy know if you want to see the other 280 pictures!

My First Time Bowling!


My Grandma took us bowling Christmas night! It was my first time and I had SOO much fun! Here is Grandma and my cousin Brittany.



Here is my "dance" after I throw the ball and hit a pin. Notice I just had a spare!







Now you can see me in action. I am still trying to get the hang of it... so the ball goes a little slow!


Now for the spare! Please notice that the ball doesn't even touch the bumpers the whole way down!
I have learned to put my fingers in the ball and I run to pick up the speed of the ball...


Christmas!

I spent Christmas Eve and Day at my Grandma and Grandpas. My cousins came to visit for a while also. Here I am in my NEW Christmas Dress, my baby doll has one just like it!
Christmas morning at Grandma's... I was SO excited to see the Pixo's, Science kit, and Tag reading system that I have been asking for from Santa! He ate all the cookies I made for him and Rudolph ate his carrot!
My Aunt Carol gave me a stuffed Horse... I LOVE him... I named him Fuzzy Wuzzy... because it rhymes!

At my Nana's and Papaw's, my girl cousins and I played school... "College" to be exact... Guess who the teacher is?
Finally we got to open presents... my cousins and I tore into them!
The only time it was quiet was when everyone was playing Leapsters or DS's! All the Mommy's and Daddy's kept encouraging us to play... not sure why!
My dog... Cassidy... cool picture!

Go Green!

I am trying very hard to make the world a better place, one can at a time. Mommy and Daddy have been drinking a lot of soda lately so that I can recycle the cans (isn't that nice of them?!). I have been bringing them to the Recycle place where they give me money... last time I got 60 cents... you should have seen how many cans it took to get that much money! One day I told Mommy I wanted to recycle my own can... so I grabbed one and made a bat with it! Isn't it cool? I cut and taped everything completely on my own. Mommy kept asking me where I got the idea from and I kept telling her I just thought of it, but she keeps bugging me asking if I saw it on TV. Hope you like it!

A Christmas preview...


For Mommy's sanity, we opened our family gifts tonight. I painted mommy and daddy something from the pottery place. Daddy got a soccer ball bowl to eat his cereal in (we have cereal together every morning!) and mommy got a Christmas tree that you can put candy in (yum yum!).




I love learning about the solar system, and this puzzle will be excellant to help me learn all the planets.



Daddy got a license plate cover for his car... isn't it appropriate.
I got Cassidy a Purdue dog bone... it lasted about 20 minutes! It was so funny to watch her open it!

Christmas Cookies

Today Mommy had a snow/ice day so we made Christmas cookies all morning long! We even made our own icing... watch out Betty Crocker! Mommy let me do just about everything myself! It was SO much fun!
It was so funny when the cookie dough got stuck in the cookie cutter!

Rolling out the dough is more difficult than I thought it would be!

I am quite the cookie decorator! I use the "perfect" amount of icing to make the cookies taste delicious and then add LOTS of sprinkles!
Can we say... "too many cookies". Too bad we don't know enough people to give these too! Daddy will have to bring some into work. Can you tell which ones I did? Mommy was skimpy on the icing...but I had lots of colors on mine!

We Wish You A Merry Christmas...

I just want to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas!


A little bit of Christmas early...

Today I got a map from Disney World. This is great because while daddy is working 3 out of the 5 days, mommy and I will have to find something to do on our own. I am sure it won't be hard!


I got two games so far...

I LOVE to play games with Mommy and Daddy. We play several every night before bed! I am very good and catch on to the rules very quickly.
