DISNEY BABY!!!!!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: red;">We went on vacation a few weeks ago to the most magical place on earth...DISNEY WORLD! </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: red;">We all had a blast...yes, even the adults! It was Darien and Avery's first time to visit. This is the first day at Disney in the picture below. We went to EPCOT. I love this time of year there because they have their flower and garden shows. The "flower characters" are AWESOME. I'm kind of a dork about flowers and gardening though. I also go to see Lisa Laporta from Design to Sell on HGTV. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiiMus0NPgmL9X_l-vBEnAKwbi8B4L3-MtQ0JylH2Xd2IRm1ikTj_8Gg7G5Xvz_wUAXSuUH3kXJjrb95-aYrTDmPhm7ETswU8aisLCAfBOQffpp8-a99kk-OkXWxKD23j6Xzp4fsKDuqvag/s1600/012.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" r6="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiiMus0NPgmL9X_l-vBEnAKwbi8B4L3-MtQ0JylH2Xd2IRm1ikTj_8Gg7G5Xvz_wUAXSuUH3kXJjrb95-aYrTDmPhm7ETswU8aisLCAfBOQffpp8-a99kk-OkXWxKD23j6Xzp4fsKDuqvag/s320/012.JPG" width="180" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #f1c232;">Avery met almost ALL of the princesses. She wasn't a big fan of the characters like Mickey & Minnie, but the princesses amazed her. She loved all of them that had gloves on. It was cute because she would just stand there and rub and touch their gloves. I guess I need to get some for my little princess.</span></div><span style="color: #f1c232;"><br />

They had "magic" hours that day until 3am! We stayed until 1:30 am!!! We were exhausted but were able to do alot of extra things without a long wait.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: red;">Avery were a different Disney outfit each day. Thanks to my girlfriend over at Lois Jean's Linens! Below is a picture while we were waiting to ride the magic carpet.

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: red;">Peace out! The 3rd day we checked out Hollywood Studios or as I know it as MGM. I don't know why they change things because it's hard for me to not call it MGM. We watched the Muppet 3D show. I remember watching it when I was a little girl. Avery had her glasses on and would try to reach out and grab at things, it was cracking me up! We ate at Pizza Planet and met Lightning McQueen and Tow Mater. Hudson rode Tower or Terror, how I don't know! I can't do that stuff!!! We also watched "The Little Mermaid" show and ate dinner at the Sci-fi diner where you eat in car booths.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: red;"><br />

It was scrumptious!!! Just thinking about it makes my mouth water. Not only was the food delicious, but they had a lady that entertained our children by playing music, dancing, and having coconut races! It was so funny to watch the kids do this. They also had an open grill so you could watch them cook. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #3d85c6;">My mom and I got "layed"!</span></div><br />

We are planning on taking the kids and Darien & Mom to Holiday World and then to the IMAX in Evansville for the opening of the movie. Darien's birthday is the day after so I think that sounds like a pretty awesome birthday gift!!!</span></div><br />

Daddy coached and I don't know which one loves b-ball more! Hudson was so funny, because he always wanted to bring the ball in the court and go to the right side of the basket and shoot. He never went to the left side. I guess it has something to do with being right handed. I was hoping for one of my kids to follow after me and be a lefty, but it's not looking too good at this point. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">So if you know me very well, you know one of my true loves is CRAIGSLIST! I LOVE furniture! My husband I'm sure is going to have to send me to craigslist anonymous soon for therapy. Look at this awesome solid wood 6 ft custom desk I bought for $100 (a total steal!) I had intentions on putting it in the family room downstairs behind the couch for the kids to do art projects and stuff...BUT the more I thought about it the more I thought it would make a great sewing table to put both my sewing machine and embroidery machine on. Cha Ching! The best part is that the wood matches downstairs and all I need to do is change out the hardware (I can't do brass). :)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9In9n8o17aijl2hd7IqMIZ3nZapL4zExzBGmb53Etjyd2e4iZzMz4y-Cpg0B7ynv81Qwm9zQjpgiA3ozONYGVGyRAYZq5A0HX5vIvm9p42v6w-1NkQFC6rMrU2_OC-PKaViZAYnFhok1W/s1600/3k73pf3l55Z35Q05U1b1t6f9fe77bd8141249.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" h5="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9In9n8o17aijl2hd7IqMIZ3nZapL4zExzBGmb53Etjyd2e4iZzMz4y-Cpg0B7ynv81Qwm9zQjpgiA3ozONYGVGyRAYZq5A0HX5vIvm9p42v6w-1NkQFC6rMrU2_OC-PKaViZAYnFhok1W/s1600/3k73pf3l55Z35Q05U1b1t6f9fe77bd8141249.jpg" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"> Here is Miss Avery's new "big girl" bed. Another craigslist find. I have been searching for a bed for her for a while with certain expectations, one being that the foot board and headboard had to be the exact same because we are going to make this into a daybed for her. All of our bedrooms are extremely small (which I hate). Kevin is going to make a back for the bed and hopefully it will look </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmUulB6B1A8_L04zy5cgZ1fCXwWeIJNVy0bzJ7lbIOm1dcUUYJry5tNDjiwvfaWzajJ4IFQREizryCv-4lDRtgGSqWpR8tFeb3Og2dPyIqlZelN90SBTlbArn6VMiL1fEcINQTV263OxFE/s1600/3kf3o53lb5T35W25R5b1mf0f6b3dda9811384.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" h5="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmUulB6B1A8_L04zy5cgZ1fCXwWeIJNVy0bzJ7lbIOm1dcUUYJry5tNDjiwvfaWzajJ4IFQREizryCv-4lDRtgGSqWpR8tFeb3Og2dPyIqlZelN90SBTlbArn6VMiL1fEcINQTV263OxFE/s1600/3kf3o53lb5T35W25R5b1mf0f6b3dda9811384.jpg" /></a></div><div align="center">more like this....</div><br />

I'm very excited now to make the transition to a big girl bed for Avery. We have plans...1. sleep in big girl bed without a fight. 2. get through Disney trip in March...3. GET RID OF THE 'FEEF' AKA PACIFIER!.<br />
Wish me luck!<br />
And I haven't forgot about Mr. Hudson. His room will be re-done here soon as well. Here are some ideas that I've picked up online.<br />

But we picked him up and he asked if he could go the next day.<br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhu3ez2X3Dqpd6WRWGIcDqxUfvjfThsKQoS5Y4Z3Z3suNRozf-zDeZl8WS0sbs3r5nlpemGdtW7Bj8eEh59R3PmjPDnyeoCL4JOyVnRw9iGdhZyHMpmo2A1Rwe1j3QTWJU47C3tJ85RsHnj/s1600/012.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 225px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5509769624745463490" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhu3ez2X3Dqpd6WRWGIcDqxUfvjfThsKQoS5Y4Z3Z3suNRozf-zDeZl8WS0sbs3r5nlpemGdtW7Bj8eEh59R3PmjPDnyeoCL4JOyVnRw9iGdhZyHMpmo2A1Rwe1j3QTWJU47C3tJ85RsHnj/s400/012.JPG" /></a> Well after he told us "that was a long day"!</div><div>I wanted to say, " Well buddy, you have a lot of LONG days ahead of you, you mine as well start now."<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVczn2xhwqk5o1FeorPkaUOYCLl7q63xs_O3eIhwsxrozu5VcCfnYXzfe3Nvmu3h4UMXpMrn87Cyt2NnK8Z2dvXXjnAMGEYajMTYYFPVDQ-euWMryA5BwxjxbWcVsJ1C6EpfYMUhwqlNAj/s1600/008.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 225px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5509769616563017586" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVczn2xhwqk5o1FeorPkaUOYCLl7q63xs_O3eIhwsxrozu5VcCfnYXzfe3Nvmu3h4UMXpMrn87Cyt2NnK8Z2dvXXjnAMGEYajMTYYFPVDQ-euWMryA5BwxjxbWcVsJ1C6EpfYMUhwqlNAj/s400/008.JPG" /></a> Here's to a great kindergarten year Hudson!<br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div><br /></div>Bethhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15849063401376375647noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9062047581796905261.post-21271928112343144522010-08-12T21:15:00.003-05:002010-08-12T21:25:38.047-05:00Guess who is 2?<div align="center"> </div><div align="center">Miss Avery Lucille!</div><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpYbNhwMdemSCS4BiH8X3FwCiLS-cbM2QQF36J9QB3G20QNdA3Zxz5ZnzZJAL_5QOXYf0Hf3deniDxsbfGcFJvyaBFdeh4RqeqN-dDkPvrwfW1uZLWCi3XgSjYi4QbvxvSXtiCP5m4P1xl/s1600/008.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 225px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5504713517509591490" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpYbNhwMdemSCS4BiH8X3FwCiLS-cbM2QQF36J9QB3G20QNdA3Zxz5ZnzZJAL_5QOXYf0Hf3deniDxsbfGcFJvyaBFdeh4RqeqN-dDkPvrwfW1uZLWCi3XgSjYi4QbvxvSXtiCP5m4P1xl/s400/008.JPG" /></a> Two years ago tonight God gave us the most precious little girly girl we could have ever asked for.
