Dancing at Disney!

I forgot to mention that we started Spring Break!

It was an exciting one because the girls have been preparing and practicing all

year to DANCE at DISNEYLAND!

It finally arrived and we were off!

Unfortunately not with everyone. 

Casey and Lane stayed back for work and baseball.

Rusty sure stepped up and took such good care of us all!
If he can survive a trip with 3 girls, plus all the hair and makeup

we hauled with us, he can survive anything!
He is going to be an exceptional husband and father some day. 

I think he was most excited to fly Southwest for the free drinks and snacks

that Allegiant doesn't provide.

Can you tell he was feeling bougie?!

All my ducks in a row!

We were SO excited to have the Heywoods join us on this trip!!

Disneyland is always better with company. 

Our kids get along so well together.

We went to Splitsville in Downtown Disney 

for bowling!

Such a fun place that I've never been to!

And the food was outstanding!!
Besides my corndog, it was my favorite meal of the trip.

Check out my sushi roll, YUM!!

Salt N Straw and beignets for dessert!

The perk to having multiple adults, divide and conquer on the food

options!

We woke up bright and early and made the rope drop at CA!
Only a 1 minute wait for Radiator Springs.

And already running into dance friends!

We put all the kids in 1 car, then Val and I got in one behind them.

Luckily we got to race them!

Junie being snagged every second of the trip!

Glorious breakfast!

The only ones willing to get wet!

First time trying the birria tacos!

We hopped over to Disney for a few rides before I needed to take the girls

back to CA Adventure to get them ready for their stage performance. 

I refused to take the shuttle all the way back to the hotel to get them ready.
So they sat and drank  shakes while I did their hair and makeup
while they watched some pet show. 

Not ideal at all, but it worked!

We gathered with all the other girls and their moms before they went backstage.

Rusty stayed with these guys living his best life!

Performance time!!
It was a rush, and they did so good!

Being at Disney really amplified their performances.

Probably one of the coolest stages they will ever dance on!

We changed them back into their clothes
and ran to Disneyland to get more rides in!

Everybody kept asking them how they liked Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique
since they had on so much makeup and a slicked back high bun, lol!!

And to end the night, Dole whips.
CHEERS!

 

Lindi Turns 11!

I don't know why it is so hard for my kids to

pick a party location.

She mulled over many places before deciding on Skateland (silent sigh).

Then switched it to UpTown Jungle.

#Bless!

She invited all of her friends from school.

I was worried most would be out of town because it was Spring Break.

Surprisingly she had a great turnout!

It was great!

They played to their hearts content while
I sat in a chair and caught up on life and Netflix.

I think I'm digging this stage of life!

 

I put Della in charge of pictures and videos of Lindi opening 
gifts while I got the food ready.

She did a fabulous job!

And was more thorough than I would have been.

Picnic in the backyard

with all the kid fixins'!

Then they ended up in the pool!

The dried off across the street playing basketball until their parents came!

She had been begging for a Slim water bottle.

Wish granted.

And new clothes to boot. 

Dinner ended up being a little bit of a fiasco.

Long waits times and a picky birthday eater left her in tears at 
PF Changs, our only option.

But she did get her pizookie at BJ's that she had her heart set on!

She also got heart attacked by here sweet cousins.

And a visit by grandma.

She sure felt the LOVE!
