School Race

The morning after we got back from Florida the girls had their all school race.  It was all the schools in 
Manhattan and the surrounding areas.  They were tired, but they ran great!

Disney World Part 2

Talia is 6 years old today!  We spent the day at Animal Kingdom and Epcot.


 Talia wore a button that said Today is my Birthday - EVERYONE told her 
Happy Birthday and made her day special!
Presley could fit right in with my girls :-) 

Tatum & Talia thought it was so fun taking care of Presley 

Both families dining with all of the princesses - the boys were good sports about it. 

Meeting Ariel 

Princess Aurora with our crew :-) 

Taizley was supposed to be dressed as Cinderella this day, but she wanted to dress
like the other girls - so no costume this year 

Tatum's favorite part of Epcot was visiting France - she loved the mini Eiffel Tower 

Of course we had to visit Duffy! 

 Talia and Presley

Tatum (in the back) did the Jedi training to fight Darth Vader along with Berkley, Beckett (on the very right side) and Paxton (right in front) 

Here she was during her fight

Disney World Part 1

We spent a week in Florida with our good friends the Coon Family.  Their 3 boys are the exact ages of my 3 girls - plus they also have a 2 year girl!  They live in North Carolina and love Disney World as much as we do - so we decided to meet there again this year and go together.  It was such a great trip!!

As soon as we arrived in Florida we changed and went to our favorite party - 
Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party 
They encourage you to dress in costume so we did Superhero Family :-)

Here are all the kids 7, 7, 5, 5, 4, 3 and 2! The boys were ninjas and Presley was Minnie Mouse 

Watching the Halloween parade 

Korey & Presley with Mark & Taizley 

I think we left the park at 1am with everyone still awake!

The next day Papa & Nannie came to visit and we had a more relaxing day at the resort.
The kids loved the slide!

 The Coons gave the girls a Rainbow Loom - it was a huge hit!  They took them home and now all the neighbors come over to make necklaces and bracelets

The girls thought it would be fun to do hair wraps 

Here is Talia with her hairwrap - this is the last day she is 5!  Makes Mommy sad :-( 

Taizley's turn 

All finished!! 

Tatum was trying to watch her do the wrap so she could do them for her friends :-)
