"When you wish upon a star" - Our Disney Cruise

We had a very exciting Christmas.  

Our family woke up Christmas morning to Santa arriving and then packed 

up for a trip to Florida and a Disney Cruise. 

There was SO much excitement. 

 There were 22 of us in the group with Aunts, Uncles, and Cousins all on mom's side. 

 Even the American Girl Doll made the trip

and had an outfit for every event.  

(yes we DID over pack!)

 With temperatures in the 80s, we couldn't be in the pool enough! 

And why wouldn't we when we could watch Disney movies from the pool

And eat an endless amount of ice cream cones. 

The sunsets!!  

 Pirate Night - 

AAAArrggghhh .. we embraced the pirate life on the ship. 

Who doesn't love to wear an eyepatch and a parrot on their shoulder. 

 Lil Miss was in Princess heaven. 

She met Elsa and Anna, and many others. 

It was her favorite part of the trip.

It was great to spend so much time with my family 

and catch up and make memories. 

Especially with this guy.... 

Happiest Place on Earth for 4 days... but I am 

super happy to be home.  

Baseball Season

We've been knee deep in Baseball Season for 

some time, and the end is near. 

Tournaments started this week and my boys did fantastic 

at their first game. 

 The Hubby is again helping coach and it melts my heart

watching those two talk baseball.

 Bubba has pitched his share of games this year. 

What a difference a year makes! 

 At Wednesday's night game, he hit a double and triple. 

We are so proud of him. 

Win or lose. 

Good sportsmanship and attitude is what we are most proud of. 

 Bring me some Cracker Jack's.

Little Ballerina

I'm bacccckkkk. 

Okay, it has been 5 months since my last post.  

I have not fallen off the face of the earth. 

I've just been a mother of 4 kids. 

If you have 4 or more kids.... you understand. 

So I'm back. 

Hopefully with summer around the corner, I will have time

to blog and share.  That is my plan.

Because this blog is more than sharing... it is my scrapbook for my kids. 

Our little ballerina. 

We are a week away from her 2nd dance recital 

and Mommy needed to practice a ballet bun with our short hair. 

So we made it a dress rehearsal and showed Grandma what we have been learning this year. 

 She didn't like the attention at all.  *wink wink

  Spending this week with Grandma Judy has been really special.
