We get it ALL in

This is our most recent picture (from last month's visit to Disney) from the whole family's trip to Orlando. Tatumn always has her autograph book in tow to get the character's signatures and she's got quite a few from all our visits. Now Hadley wants to be like her big sister and looks forward to getting a "Herbie Hancock" too. Did I mention that on this particular day we visited three different Disney parks? Eric thought it couldn't be done but we did it and had a great time!

Rock on, Mom!

So yesterday I was brave enough to go to Orlando with Hadley & Imogen by myself. We had to leave little Tate home because she has so much going on to close out her year at school and she's missed so much school already with dental, orthodontic, and eye appointments. :( We promised her a very fun day this Saturday in Orlando though to make up for the loss.
But things went very well with the three of us yesterday. If you don't mind messy faces and clothes and an occassional tantrum from Imogen (which involves throwing herself on the floor and screaming VERY loudly) then you're okay. I know I strenthened my arm muscles a great deal as I had to hold Imogen for long periods so she couldn't escape.
In this picture I have given them Shamu-shaped ice cream bars and it went over as a huge hit but also was a HUGE mess at the same time. I knew that going into it but decided it was late and we no longer looked well-groomed anyway so there was not much to lose but happy faces to gain. :) This was Imogen's version of posing for a photo-op. Funny.
