Lila's friends

Lila has found the beauty of friendship. She is asking to play with her friends now and just lights up when she is with them!

 I love watching her talking and laughing with them....and the things they come up with to do...like coloring themselves from head to toe with sidewalk chalk.....

 I am so glad she treasures her friends and has so many to play with and love!

Indy weekend

After Disney Live we jumped right back in the truckster and headed to Indy to celebrate Sydney's 7th birthday! We met up with them at Incredible Pizza and ate all the pizza and played all the games we wanted!

 There were lots of smiles!

 Syd and Lila even played a round of glow in the dark put-put!

 We love the Taylors...truly we do...but we are still getting to know them more every time we are together...and little moments like this really warm the heart...Lila crawling up in Aunt Tonya's lap for cupcake time. Of all the people at the table she chose her....

 The cousins never miss a beat...and they are so lucky to have this time together. They are getting to know each other as children....and experiencing this childhood time together...something Jason and I never got to do....I love...love...love seeing them together!

 The party ended and I went home with Jason, Tonya and Syd to spend the night...for some time with them. It's been hard to find time to open up with Jason when we are all together....I am a busy moma of four littles and those duties never stop...so I stepped away from them for a few hours tonight to just be with them. When I got to their place they had Danielle mango chips on my bed and a sweet card from Syd....I felt welcome right away. We spent the night enjoying a fashion show by Syd...having a picnic of Donatos pizza...and Jason and I talked of hours....it was perfect.

 The morning brought some one on one time with Syd...in her room...with the things that mean the most to her...one of them being her kitty, Charlotte.

 We sat on her floor....looking at Leggos...and just talking about well...you name it...I loved every second of it. I love getting to know her better.

 After breakfast we met up with Jeremy and I went back home to step back into my Moma duties. It was just hours away and yet I learned and loved so much! Looking forward to a lifetime of catching up!

Valentine party

Lila and Jazmyn headed over to Lexi's for some Valentine fun!

 It was cookie decorating....

 and crafts.....

 She made this precious Valentine Owl...be still my Chi Omega heart!

 I love it that this precious girl has precious girl friends too!

date with daddy

Jeremy called me and he wanted to surprise Lila by picking her up from school and then we would all go to Chick-fil-a....her favorite.....for lunch! She was so excited! It truly is the little things, you know!

She polished off her chicken and Polynesian sauce and then she and daddy celebrated with ice cream! Cheers to a fun, unexpected lunch!

Halloween Ballet

Today at Ballet the girls...to celebrate Halloween...could come in their Halloween costume! Lila really wanted to go in one of Sarah Kate's old costumes that was a lady bug...but without the wings, you know! 

 She was just precious as the dancing ladybug...warming my heart with ever turn, twirl and tap!

 Lexi was a bumble bee...they were the sweetest bugs around!

Oh to be a real princes......

The boys headed off to Epcot this morning and we ladies headed off to the Magic Kingdom....the girls had an appointment for their make over at the Bippity Bobbity Boutique! On the way there we ran into a few special people...you just never know who you set going to run into at Disney!

 But we couldn't visit long....the castle was calling our name!

 Once we settled into the Bippity Bobbity Boutique...the fun began!

 The sisters were too die for....pointing to each other over and over saying...you're prettier...no your prettier..no your prettier.....

 Lila Ray chose a pink crown....

 Aqua for Sarah Kate.....

 Lila blew and blew on her nails!

 Finally they were sprinkled with fairy dust......Bippity...Bobbity Boo!

 Lila with her Fairy Godmother.....

 Both of the girls with Sarah Kate's Fairy Godmother.....

 Oh they were so precious!

 I swear they sparkled!

 We then joined Cinderella at the castle for lunch! She was so happy to see them!

 As we waited to go to our table...Lila kept blowing her kisses!

 So many princesses were there....Snow White!

 Sleeping Beauty!

 Princess Ariel!

 Even Belle!

They made wishes with their wands and wishing stars!

Lila had trouble keeping her eyes closed so she just covered hers!

 We all loved our dinner and for dessert Sarah Kate had a decorate your own cupcake!

 She LOVED it!

 It truly was a magical time at the castle!

I mean really....my heart runneth over with love......

runneth over and over and over....

 In her dress...Lila felt like she owned the park!

 We met up with the boys at Epcot...the girls running to show daddy how pretty they were was just priceless!

 Grandpa thought they were pretty too....

 We rode Nemo....

 Did the Test Track...

 and just had the best day enjoying the rides and attractions of Epcot!

 As night fell we took a ferry over to Germany for supper!

 We enjoyed this so much! Jeremy and Daryl had German beer....

 and we danced...danced....danced......

 We ended the night with the fireworks at Epcot!

 Just keep the magical memories coming!
