Happy Easter!!!!

Happy Easter!!!! What a special time for us to celebrate. Mikayla had a wonderful time, we can't wait for next weekend too, to celebrate again!!! Here we are on our way to chuch.

Can't dress up without twirling, right?

Ta-Dahhhh

Angelic!

Sporting some goofy faces in the car LOL!

I asked for the "eye roll" what was I thinking!!! I knew I'd get one hee hee

Egg hunting!!!! She loved it!!!!

I hope you all had a fantastic Easter too!!!! Have a great week.

Coloring Easter Eggs :)

I just love coloring the eggs, it sure seemed like it used to take longer but we managed to do this in the time while dinner was cooking, it was soooo much fun. :) Mikayla was writing names on each egg or drawing a simple picture on it. Mikayla really seemed to enjoy the tradition too.

Here is what happened after a LOT of running around.....

Little miss was sooooooo tired, we cuddled up in the recliner for a few minutes and she stayed put for her nap.... she was sooooooooo comfy!!

Fun times!!!!

We have been having some fun times!!! So incredibly busy (seems to be the most recent theme) but still make time for little miss to have some fun. Here she was fresh out of the shower and by the time I shut the shower door, she "fixed" her hair!! (little stinker)

Now she's all sweet and loving on her Nana, she was giving her a back rub but posed for the picture.

We went to a birthday party and this party showed me just how obvious it is that I need to take camera classes... I couldn't get a non blurry picture except when the subjects were standing still...UGH... I know I have the sport setting but it just was NOT working for me... so these are the only pics I was able to get.

Please don't think of my any less..... here is my child.... *GASP* scrubbing the shower floor..... I fully acknowledge that I am lucky beyond measure but yes... she LOVES to clean, vacuum, windex ANYTHING that isn't moving... and she loves to scrub.... so here is my princess.... up to her elbows in cleanser....just cleaning to her hearts content! (oh and please notice the three strands of beautiful diamond beads she is wearing in order to clean better) (yes she said that).

After her cleaning spree and swim in the bathtub, Cinderella had to come to the ball. She got out my wedding veil and shoes... promptly had to get dressed up and "get married".... She LOVES to be married....

So after cleaning and playing dress up, we were cooking dinner - she spotted the windex bottle and decided she wanted to clean the kitchen floor (again). So she sits on the floor starts spraying and singing the song from Cinderella (sing sweet nightigngale) the original lyrics are:

Oh, sing sweet nightingale

Sing sweet nightingale

High above me

Oh, sing sweet nightingale

Sing sweet nightingale

Mikayla's version:

Clean, sweep, spring in time

Clean, sweep, spring in time

ahh ahh ah ahhhhhhh ahhha aah ahhh

Oh clean, sweep, spring in time.... ohhhh

I LOVE this little girl, she is so much fun!!! I love her dressing up, I love her play acting, I love it all!!! Even the orneries when they come!!!! She is such a joy!

Wedding Fun!!!

Over the weekend we went to my cousin's wedding. It was an absolutely amazing time! Mikayla was very nearly the belle of the ball. Our little girl danced and danced and danced and danced..... she was sooooo happy to be there and loved to dance!!!!! She wants to get married sooooooo badly.... like NOW..... YIKES

Beautiful church!!

She was running around with some other kids once we were outside again. She is such a good girl, not shy about joining in wherever we go :)

Had to post the goofball pictures too LOL

She is soooo drawn to water!!!

This was such random picture, we were at the top of the stairs at the country club (for the reception) and there was this HUGE mirror..... we were just standing there.... so I snapped the picture, but then when I posed us to get a family picture ... nada, it didn't work but the random shot is neat (well I think it is....LOL)

Here we were hunting for "snakes" (sticks) outside we even had to bring a few home with us ;)

Cuddles.....

Some reception entertainment, Mikayla learned some new dance moves from the belly dancers.....

Cake time

Cousin Chris - brother of the groom

DANCE TIME!!!!!

The little boy below kept really wanting to dance with Mikayla, when he would take her hands, she would tell him, "not this song, I want to dance alone...." he kept trying though LOL

Dancing with Bill - father of the groom

Cousins dancing (my dad and Sig)

Mikayla not only can't wait for the next wedding, she can't wait to be a bride..... I'm 100% certain I'm not ready!!!!!

It was soooo much fun watching her have so much fun...... it is amazing how watching your children grow up really is such a blessing and truly an awesome experience.

8 Hours driving...... long but worth it

Wedding and reception..... awesome memories

Daughter absolutely having the time of her life........ priceless

Have a great week!!!!!
