Round two..

Poor little Gracie has been so sick over the last week with fever, coughing and breathing problems.  Just when I thought we were in the clear I picked up my baby girl at Day Care and she was running a temperature.  It looks like we're in for round two.  Since I have the meds necessary to battle this bad boy virus, maybe Savannahs stay in the 'Feelin' Like Crud Motel' will be a short one.  Lucky for heMommy is staying home with her tomorrow and will be with her all weekend to take care of her sweet little self.  Hope you feel better soon Bizzy!!

On a more positive note, Matt and I have decided that our Christmas presant to eachother this year will be a four day trip to Gatlinburg over New Years.  I am soooo excited!  I love the mountains, but this time I want a little something different - a New Year's Eve Party in Downtown Gatlinburg with fireworks and a ball drop should be just what the docta ordered.  Can't wait - something to look forward to and the finish 2011 off in style.  My grandmother use to say, what you do on New Years and who you do it with with be what you do all year long, so spend it wisely!!!  Hopefully we will be able to find some Cabbage, Rice and Black Eyed Peas somewhere up there.  We need money, luck and....  can't remember the others, but I'm sure I need it. 

We're going to see the MOUSE!!

Once again I’ve let the time slip by….

Sorry for the pause in blogging, we’ve had a lot going on lately!

In September we spent Mimi’s Birthday (Janis, my Mom) in Disney with the girls.  Of course it’s our favorite place on earth to go for special occasions, but this trip was even more special. 

Way back SEVERAL months ago I was able to book reservations for lunch/dinner in the Castle, Cinderella’s Castle that is.  These days, it’s becoming quite a stroke of luck to obtain reservations.   I’m sure there was a bit of pixie dust in the equation, but I was able to get late lunch reservations on the day that we were planning to go.  I was SOOO excited about the event, I could hardly stand it.  I kept it inside for months, up until about two days before our trip and it came busting out.  My Mom was surprised and very excited!!

I had shirts made for the girls and of course they sported them with style…

We all were looking forward to the clock striking 2:30 for our date with Royalty!

We met Snow White...

We acted silly with Ariel

We tried to climb on Sleeping Beauty (notice Gracie is being the perfect little princess!!)

And finally, our favorite, Princess Belle.  Gracie had quite a conversation with Belle.  She let her know that she knew all about her story and that she was her favorite of all.  It was really sweet.

Then we had our royal dessert!!

Icing fest 2011...  oh, let the sugar coma begin.

So after our Royal Dinner, we decided it was high time for some rides.  We rode the tea cups and the race cars, which Gracie drove like a boss!

And after a great day, kind of wet, but wonderful, we finished up with Mimi's favorite, The People Mover. But first, we needed a little lipstick...

And then we decided that we would get comfortable on the arm rest...

While sister sits nicely in her seat...

It was such a fun day spent with Mom and the girls.  I can't wait to go back again VERY soon!!

So for now.....
