Princess Party

Last week my sister and neice came to visit for a few days. It was pretty much an all-girl princess party, and when Michael got home from work he was our chauffer {because princesses don't drive themselves around. . . . . . duh!} And boy did we have FUN!!

The "Royalty"



Rylee's first time in a pool- she did GREAT! I was a pleasantly surprised.


We, of course, had to fit a SeaWorld trip into our schedule. Ella loved the Shamu roller coaster.







and giving Rylee a "baff"We also went to the Japanese Tea Gardens, which I've been wanting to check out for a while now. It was very pretty. Ella enjoyed going on a 'hike' and of course, being the leader.

We got a little bit of crafting in, lots of talking and 'loves'



It was so fun to see Ella with Rylee. She loved holding her 'all by herself' as long as she wasn't crying - covering up her mouth helped :) if she did cry, Ella was quick to tell me Rylee wanted her "Pinky"

Other highlights from the visit was Ella learning to use a camera, and purposely taking pictures of suit cases, shoes, knee's, and "even the furniture" {When she wanted to take pictures of faces, they were in the frame} She wanted to strap Rylee in her swing so she could "push her really high" we're not quite ready for underdogs just yet. And books books books.

Thanks for visiting, come back soon!!!
