Jingle Jingle Jingle

For the past month Lilly has been pulling ornaments off the tree and attempting to unwrap gifts. Finally the Day has arrived!

Minnie Mouse stocking held the delicious goods. Only 1 year old and has a sweet tooth!

More Disney Princess dolls! Yippee!!

Just in time for tea...is it one lump or two? "Be our guest, be our guest, be our guest!"

SciFi Movie Drive In

It's Christmas Eve and there's no other place where we'd rather be than the one and only Hollywood Studios! Last time we went to our favorite park, we eyed this restaurant, SciFi Movie Drive In, so right when we got home we made reservations!!

What an experience! It's a 50's drive in movie themed restaurant. You sit in little old fashioned car and watch the big screen while eating an American dish. Yum in my tum tum.

Lilly's highchair looked like a modern space craft ready for lift off. 3-2-1 BLAST OFF!

Massive turkey sandwich and cucumber salad

The food was amazing and the best part was that I didn't have to COOK or clean! Score!!

We had such a good time. Definitely an experience to remember and do again!

Happy Holidays to Family and Friends

Merry Christmas

Happy New Year

No Work All Play

Christmas time is around the corner and presents are in hiding. However, some gifts weren't hidden well enough!

Doll bed

Lilly loved it so much she tried to snuggle inside it. Keep trying Lilly. Eventually you will find a bed that's "Just right!"

Giddy up Dad! Get a move on!

"Cheeeeeeeeese please!"

Minnie Mouse goes wherever she goes

Sam was gone for the weekend on a male bonding retreat. All Lilly would say was "Dadadadada" We missed you!

I'm so glad when Daddy comes home. Glad as I can be!

I clap my hands and shout for joy and upon his knee.

I wrap my arms around his neck and squeeze him tight like this!

I whisper in his ear and give him What? A great big kiss

Fernadine Beach

This past weekend, we drove up north to Fernandina Beach to see Lillian's great grandmother, Suzanne, and great aunt, Kimberly. Being our first time on Amelia Island, we did a little site seeing...

Fort Clinch

My favorite was seeing downtown Fernandina. We found an adorable antique shop that even Sam found interesting. I could have spent hours in that store- so many cute vintage/shabby chic toy table and chairs and doll cradles!

Lilly had no problem warming up to Great Grandma. Lilly learned to dance and shake her hips, "Dancy dancy dancy" and loves her new books and building blocks. Also Lillian has never eaten so well. Great Grandma's cooking was amazing! Yum in my tum tum!

Round and Round She Goes Where She'll Stop No One Knows

The week before Thanksgiving, Lilly had taken a couple steps here and there. The week following Thanksgiving, Lillian was walking all over and soon will be running to get from place to place!

Camera Ready

Saturday early morning, we arrived at the Magic Kingdom for the filming of the Christmas day Parade. Only cast members, family, and friends can get tickets to watch and get a chance to be on TV! We saw several wonderful musical performances. So be sure to watch for us Christmas morning on ABC.

Lights!

Camera!

Action!

Perfect timing getting to the park early. We were able to walk on several rides that usually have over an hour wait during the day. The Philarmagic 3-D show was amazing! The wind was blowing and the baked goodies smelt delicious! Just be sure to bring windshield wipers for your glasses :)

It's a small small world!

28 and Feeling Great!

It was Sweet Cheeks 28th birthday this past Friday. As soon as he got off work, we went in search for Mexican food! The closest thing to Mexican food here in Florida is tex-mex. We found a Chipolte-like restaurant and indulged with tasty burritos. Then, off to my favorite town, Celebration. Throughout the month of December, Celebration holds snow falls each night leading up to Christmas day. Also, there are greetings and pictures with Santa Claus and train rides around downtown.

Happy Birthday Daddy!

Downtown Celebration, cutest town ever!

Lilly loved the snow fall and watching the children scream with laughter and fun. The "snow" was actually soap suds, but looked so real. Children were covered in bubbles and suds. Lilly can't wait to be part of all the action-she wants to be a big girl already .

Brrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!

It's been nippy this past week at a whopping 60 degrees.

Winter in Florida. All bundled up ready for the park. Lillian wasn't too happy once dressed, but sure did appreciate it once we stepped outside!

Only in the Dirty South

My first impression when I heard we were moving to Florida, I thought tan hot bodies, beaches, warm weather; in a short way of putting it- Miami in the movies. Reality set in once I arrived to central Florida... Redneck central.

I have seen monster trucks in Vegas but I have NEVER seen anything as big as these wheels! Hilarious!

I have to admit this was pretty awesome. Double decker go kart track!!!!!!!!!!!!

The ultimate sky flyer was the highest thing I've ever seen. "To infinity and beyond!"
