Disney On Ice

We took Ella to Disney on Ice last weekend. It really was so cute. And she had so much fun clapping and waving to everyone. It made my day just watching her. However, there's not a lot of pictures because my camera just GAVE up. I mean how does that happen? It was working and then as soon as the show started it wouldn't take a dang picture! I was so mad because I was trying to get pictures of her priceless faces. Ugh! Anyway, at least I was there to see them and remember them. I just wish everyone else could have seen them.

2nd Haircut=Pure Torture!

So I'm embarassed to say that this is only Ella's 2nd haircut she's had. I've just never been able to get around to it. Well after all the crying while trying to brush her hair, I had had it. So we went and cut off a good bit of it last Saturday. It was not pretty but we got through it and her hair even got cut. Trust me...at one point I thought we were going to have to leave before the scissors reached her hair.

Dirty 30!

We celebrated my 30th birthday last weekend in Downtown Memphis. We had SO much fun! I haven't been out that late in a long time! We started at the Southland Greyhound Park, then ate some dinner at Bardogs, then went to Red Rooster on Beale, then ended up at Raifords. We had a blast. Thanks to the ones that were able to come out for some fun. You made my night!


Greyhound Park. Jennifer almost got tackled by the security guard for taking this picture.

People actually pay money to take their picture in front of this backdrop on Beale. So instead of paying the $25 package we asked the guy if he could take our picture using our camera instead of his for $5. Sold! Ha!

Me and my handsome hubby!

Love him! :)

End of night at Raifords. Worn out!

She's going to make the USA Womens Soccer Team!

So, Ella had her first soccer practice/scrimmage last Thursday. The first half is working on skills and the second half is a scrimmage. Well, she did great the first half. And when it came to the scrimmage poor thing didn't understand that there's one ball and everyone is trying to get this ball. So she would get the ball, then a child would come up and take the ball, and then she would stand there and cry and point at that child and tell her Daddy that that kid took the ball away from her. If I can figure out how to upload the video I will. It was hysterical though. So afterwards we had a long discussion about how to play soccer and whats going to happen. So heres to hoping next week is a little less tearful.












Not too happy during the scrimmage.


You can just see her poor little face so upset.

Sand Time

We headed off to SanDestin for one last beach trip for the year and to celebrate Mommy's 30th birthday! The weather was gorgeous, it wasn't crowded, and overall it was a wonderful trip.

Ella got in a fight with the pool chair and the pool chair won.

Megan was getting so frustrated trying to walk in the sand.

Playing in the sprinklers. Look at the joy on that face!

Favorites

One of my favorites. More Florida pics to come....

Look Alikes

Do these two look alike or what!?!

Mud Island River Walk

We went down to Mud Island to the River Walk today. It was fabulous! The weather was beautiful and the girls' had a great time. Here are a few pictures of our adventure.

Daddy and his girls

It's so funny how different these two are. Ella doesn't want to get her clothes dirty or wet. Hence her holding her dress up.

And Megan is like throw me in the water! Get me dirty! Please don't hold me back!

Sisterly Kisses

Love this!

And since this mother didn't realize they had fountains and pools, I didn't bring any bathing suits. So I present to you the redneck children!

Megan was like, "Let me go man...this is going to be fun!"
