DISNEY WORLD!!!
Last weekend we went to Disney World! We've been wanting to take Abby since she's been better and this was the perfect time of year. Abby was so very cute and her genuine happiness to just be there was such a joy to share. She only had about two meltdowns (one on the flying dumbo's!) and was very good. We look forward to going again soon and taking her to Epcot!

We're Disney girls!

We could hear a show going on at the castle and so Abby got on daddy's shoulders to see. The witch was threatening to take away Mickey and Minnie's dreams. But the crowd saved the day by chanting, "Dreams do come true... dreams do come true... dreams do come true!" We're at Disney World!

Say Cheese... or anything that resembles a smile!
By this time, Abby was just about OVER having pictures taken. She was just so cute and overwhelmed with her elfish grin and I was wanting to capture it all. If you only knew how MANY times we tried to get a "family photo" with her SMILING... this picture would be all the more beautiful!

Abby loved the castle! It was her favorite part of Disney, until she rode Splash Mountain (my adventure girl!). She kept wanting to go inside and see Cinderella. It was hard trying to explain to her that we couldn't just go in and find her. After all, I'd been telling her Cinderella lived there! She was so patient though and was content to just see it all the time.

Captain Hook and Smee!
I am guessing that's how you spell smee's name. Anyway, she thought they were too cool and they thought she was cooler! I think she would be a very cute pirate.

Tea for Two Please!
Daddy had to sit this one out... he doesn't spin! We had the best time and we were the fastest spinning cup on the ride! As we were leaving, the Mad Hatter came in and was buzzing about. This was Abby's first ride and she was just soaking it all in... happy memory!

Our beautiful girl with her new ears on, Tinkerbell version, and waiting for a "classic boat ride".

It's a small world after all, it's a small world after all. It's a small world after all. It's a small, small world. It's a small world after all. It's a small world after all. It's a small world after all. It's a small, small world. It's a small world...
(my favorite part of this "classic" ride is all the amazing color!)

Abby's first time driving!
Abby and Daddy drove the race cars and Abby was all about it until it started bumping on the rail and jerking her around. What a histerical site... good daddy/daughter bonding!

Not sure who this monkey belonged to, but he asked us for a picture! I think our monkey is cuter.

WHO IS THIS?
She's happy all the time. She has a very cool bag! She can fly with her umbrella. She can make a song out of anything! She can even jump into pictures....

It's "The" Mary Poppins!
This was very cool. We'd just had girl's night and watched Mary Poppins and there she was, on our carousel! Abby kept calling her, "Mary Poppins..." in her cute voice and Ms. Mary would look and Abby would wave. Abby would call and Mary would look and Abby would wave. Abby would call and Mary... you get the picture. It was precious and Ms. Mary was very gracious and just kept looking and waving and smiling.

Abby was as fascinated with this duck as she was with Disney World. We decided if we were ducks, we would choose to live here too. One duck let her reach through the gate and touch it's head. She was thrilled... she is my daughter! (I am major animal lover.)

Happy Halloween!
Our Fairey Princess having breakfast before a very fun day at school. Her excitement over things like this bring us so much joy... just look at that face!

The kids go marching one by one...
hoorah, hoorah!

Abby's school had a Halloween Parade where all the classes marched around the parking lot as doting parents waved and cheered. It was so cute. Each grades teachers all dressed up and the kindergarten teachers were desperate housewives... they had on robes, no makeup (daring) and had towels on their heads! The Monster Mash and Ghost Busters
were two of the background songs. Very cute!

Here she is... Ms. Fairey Princess. She was so concentrated on what she was doing and just walked right by us like she was all big and stuff. The kid in front of her thought he could round up a few more votes before election day. I think he's out of luck though, he didn't kiss any babies.

She's all ready to go trick-or-treat! No one recognized her with the wig on, it was pretty funny. She loved it but it kept getting tangled in her fingers! She really wanted the eye makeup on and so she evolved from Fairey Princess to Space Fairey Princess... very original!

Since Mommy's flapper costume from E-bay was a pitiful thing upon arrival, I was the next best thing... a homeless clown.

Look who we bumped into... Ms. Strader Flower, aka Quinn. Who needs candy when you've got a nice plastic lid to chew on!

We were at an airshow a couple of weeks ago and we met the Governor of Georgia, Mr. Sonny Perdue. Abby was thrilled... "Where's Mickey Mouse?" she asked
