We are going to Disney World.

Tim has been working hard to plan this trip for his girls. I have wanted to take Rieley for the past 2-3 years, and he has finally given in and is taking us. We are going over the girls Spring Break, and will be in FL for 6 days. My one request was to stay on site and have the luxury of going and coming like we wanted to.

We finally told Rieley last night and she is sooooooooooooooooo excited! Tim has always told her it costs too much money to go and we didn't have it , so she is trying to figure it all out and where we got the money from. She will be in Princess heaven for the time we are there and for awhile after we get back I am sure. She is on the sleep countdown, 18 is what she told her teacher this morning.

Glowsticks + Bathtub + Darkness= Lots of fun and laughter.

I finally let Rieley have a bath tonight and play in the tub in the dark with glowsticks. You would have thought I had given her the moon. She had so much fun, didn't know it was possible. Of course, she didn't want to get out either. But, now I know a quick and cheap way for entertainment for her is glowsticks and the bathtub. Got the glow sticks out of the $1 bin at Target. Will be picking some more up in the near future.

Bailey turns 18. 2/18/12.

Bailey turned 18 , OH! where has the time gone?Rieley wanted her to open her gifts before we left so she did, got lots of clothes and a Boiler pillowpet.  We enjoyed a little shopping in town and then had dinner at OSAKA's Japanese Steakhouse. It was a good time had by all but by far the worst meal we have ever had there.They sang Happy Birthday to her and she got a kick out of them banging on the gong. We were going to have cake when we got home, but mom wasn't feeling good. So, we will do that another night as momma bear went to bed and left bedtime for Rieley up to daddy. then daddy and Bailey watched a movie.

Valentines Day 2012.

Rieley had her party at school today and was excited about handing out her Princess Valentine's to all of her classmates. She also, had dance class from 4-5pm, and Daisy Girl Scouts from 6-7pm. So, she was one tired girl when she got home for dinner at 715 and enjoyed some reheated beef stroganoff. We got her a box of Hershey miniatures candy bars, a princess purse and 2 new books, one with stickers. So she was very happy. She told Bailey that morning, I got 4 things and you only got 1. She doesn't hold back when she wants to let you know something.

Snow again! 2/12/12.

Need I say more. SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!  But this time, we were blessed with freezing rain also. The girls got a 2 hour delay out of it, which they were happy about. Especially Bailey, extra sleep for a senior is much needed.
Kyle drove home from San Antonio in this mess. What is usually a 5 hour drive took him over 11. Not a smart thing, but some kids you can't tell anything to, they think they know all.

Father/Daughter Dance 2/11/12.

Rieley and daddy attended a daddy/daughter dance on Sat. It was sponsored by the Girl Scouts.Rieley wanted nail polish on for her date with daddy, so we set out to get that done. Mommy painted them pink with sparkles, to match her bow on her dress. They stopped by Bush's Chicken to dinner and then on to the dance. They enjoyed dineer, dancing and desserts. Rieley really liked the chocolate fountain they had, she enjoyed strawberries and grapes with her chocolate. They came home early, the music was too loud and then took in a movie. Mom and Bailey had snuck out to a movie ourselves(The Vow), for some big girl time. Once, we got home, it was bedtime for everyone.
