Our favorite time of the year!!

It is officially Baseball season! We love going to the Royals games....even if they don't win...we still enjoy being at the stadium. This was Baileys first game this season and we are excited for many many more! 

Soccer Girl

Bailey has recently started her 2nd season of soccer. So far she has only played one game, they have had  some rain outs, but she is showing a little more interest this season. I just love that as she is getting older we are able to become involved in so many activities! I guess you could say that I am excited to be a "soccer mom"! :) 

Sunday Funday!

On Sunday we had a few things planned that made for a busy day....but Bailey had an absolute blast! First off I took her to a birthday party...It was at River Roll in riverside and it was Baileys first time skating! I myself had not been on skates since maybe middle school....before arriving at the party I was not for sure if I would be skating with her...but it ended up that I did! :) Bailey took to skating very well!!! It didn't take us very long to figure out that it was easier for the two of us if we didn't hold hands....it cut down on the falling! Basically after a couple times around she had it down and she loved it from then on! She is really excited this week because another one of her friends is also having her party at the rink this weekend, so we get to go back. Being at the skating rink brought back such memories from my childhood...I remember when we used to have school skating parties and they still played the SAME games that we played then....such as the limbo and the Dice game. We just had a really fun time! 

Then right after the party we met Abby and my mom downtown at the Sprint Center to go to Disney on Ice. It was also a very good time. We had been a couple years ago when Princess on Ice came so unfortunately Bailey was waiting for the Princesses and they weren't there.....but she still had a good time! It was very cute! I am just so happy that we are able to have such fun days like that and I look forward to many more! Here are a few pics from the day....

Road Trip....

Last weekend Abby, Bailey and I went to Tulsa to visit some old friends. Since Tulsa is where we grew up it is really nice to get back there sometime and visit with our childhood friends. I got to spend of few hours catching up with my childhood best friend who now has two children of her own....the kids played for awhile and we chatted....it was a great time. Later we spent time with one of Abbys childhood besties. We did a little bit of shopping, eating and just driving around the old neighborhood looking how things have changed! We are very lucky in that Abby has a client that works for the Hyatt and she is so sweet and can get us some very nice rooms when we go out of town....so we had a HUGE room that we could lounge in....it was just fun to get away for a few days. We definitely had a great weekend!

Bailey had a chocolate shake for lunch!

We love to snuggle!!!

The happiest place on earth....

Last month was our very first trip to Disney World with Bailey! We absolutely had a blast. It was very exhausting and we had to take one of our days off from the park so that we could rest up. We had one set back at the end of the trip when Bailey got some kind of bug in the middle of the night, but she recovered so we could finish out last day at the park. We went to Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom and Epcot. We even got to have Dinner with the Princess'! By the end of the five days bailey was worn out and it took her a few days to get back to normal when we got home. We had gone for her birthday so at the park we got her a Happy Birthday button and then all the cast members said Happy Birthday to her all the time while we were there! We even did the "pin trading" that is the new thing now.....we went with a lanyard and 1 pin and came back with the whole lanyard full! It was so exciting for me to see bailey having such a good time.....I can't wait till we go back...in a few years! :)

On out way to Magic Kingdom!

We waited in line for an hour to see Ariel!

Mom wanted us all to take a picture here in front of the teacups where andy abby and I took one there when we were little!

Family Picture!

Bailey loved to ride the Roller Coasters!

On the Jungle Safari we got pretty close to the animals!

We were really glad to be able to spend some time with Jennifer and Allegra, since they live in Florida they came and spent a day with us!

We had a wonderful night when we had dinner with all the princesses. Every single one of them came to the table and talked to her and took a picture with her! It was a very memorable experience! 

Snow White was her favorite!

Happy Birthday Princess!

Its is hard to believe that a month ago my little baby turned 5 years old! Where has the time gone? :) I am so blessed to have her in my life and I am thankful for everyday we have together!

 We definitely had a very busy birthday weekend! First we had a birthday party at our house with a lot of baileys friends and then the next day, which was her actual birthday, we went to Power Play and then came home to watch the Super Bowl! 

She is such a big girl now and I can't believe that we will be starting Kindergarten soon! I saw on the school billboard that orientation is on the 23rd of this month! WOW! I am so excited for what is to come!

Here are just a few pics from her birthday celebration!

The Beautiful Birthday Girl!

It was a Mickey and Minnie Birthday Party!

We enjoyed having all of her friends over for a wonderful time!

                                               

On her birthday we went to Power Play and one of her favorite things was the indoor cosmic mini-golf! Already taking after her mommy! She did get a "hole-in-one" on one of the holes!

Having some fun playing air hockey with the Papa!

We love you Bailey and hope you had the Best 5th Birthday a little girl could have!!!!
