Enjoying the Holidays

Here are some new pictures of Zaylee enjoying time with friends and family in Indiana!

Zaylee and her second cousin, Savannah, watching "Dora the Explorer" on their own personal TV (the Colts game took precedence on the big TV last Sunday).

Zaylee and her Uncle "Bubby" dressed up in their Christmas outfits. She loves her Bubby!

I got this precious outfit (shoes, bow, dress, and all) at Once Upon a Child for less than $20! Isn't she a doll?


Opening her stocking gifts at Memaw and Papaw Hudson's house. She loved the pink "puffer ducky."

I think Zaylee resembles her "Meme" a lot in this picture!

Zaylee and her third cousins: Spencer and Vada!


Smile for Santa!

Being silly with Bubby is a lot of fun!

After a big day of presents and fun, Zaylee decided she wanted to "make a bed" in the living room at Memaw and Papaw Hudson's house for herself and her friend, Tigger.

Zaylee and Mommy

Our second week in Indiana brought 4+ inches of fun snow! This is only the second time Zaylee has been in the snow and she LOVED it! We practiced throwing snowballs and making snow angels. She also liked to name the shapes I could make with my footprints in the snow. Such a happy girl!

"Look Mommy, a snow ball!!"


Putting up the tree at Meme and Pappy's house

So far, Zaylee has been a big help this Christmas! She loved helping with the tree, and wrapping presents was even more fun. I would let her pick out and stick on the bows for all the packages, then she would take them and put them under the tree for me. What a good little elf-in-training!
Here is a sweet little video of Zaylee in the snow...

Adorable ABC's!

Here is a precious video of Zaylee taken Saturday, Oct. 30th in our kitchen. It is a very rare treat when I catch her "performing" her ABC's on camera!

Walt Disney World!


Hello Friends and Family,
I finally had a few minutes to post up our pictures from our wonderful family vacation in Walt Disney World! Our little family of three roadtripped to Orlando, FL and spent May 14th - 18th in the "land of magic." What a great trip!
Day 1 - Evening at Epcot (a.k.a. the "big ball"!)


We had dinner reservations in Germany at the Biergarten - great food, good company, and authentic entertainment made it a wonderful 5-year anniversary celebration!

Our happy family...

Zaylee liked seeing the fish in the gardens outside Japan!


Playing on the playground with Daddy

An impressive underneath view of the "big ball"


Day 2: Animal Kingdom

One of my favorite rides during the whole trip was the Safari tour - we all loaded onto a huge truck and winded down paths through the African safari. It was so much like the real thing, and the animals were amazing!

Happy Zaylee

One of the beautiful views during the tour - African elephants!

Zaylee was actually brave enough to brush this sheep after a few minutes of observation at the petting zoo.


Day 3 (morning): Magic Kingdom!

Zaylee's first test drive in Tomorrowland - she was so excited about driving the "zoooms"!

Outside of Minnie's House in Toontown (Mickey and Minnie are actually standing on the front porch behind us). This was as close as Zaylee would allow us to get to "big" Mickey and Minnie the first time.

Although the Disney characters were somewhat frightening to Zaylee, she loved the princesses! Sleeping Beauty was her favorite (and Daddy's too ^_~).

Trying out some Minnie ears in a gift shop.

A fun breaktime in Toontown to play on the playground - so cute!

Cinderella's carousel was one of Zaylee's favorite rides.


Day 3 (evening): Disney's Hollywood Studios
Getting ready for Zaylee's favorite show of the whole trip - Playhouse Disney Live on Stage. She was completely mesmerized throughout this entire performance. It was really adorable!

Crawling around on a "Honey I Shrunk The Kids" movie set. That's a BIG ant!

Best Performance of the Trip: Beauty and the Beast Live

Day 4: Magic Kingdom (again!)
Playing in a "tot spot" in Frontierland

We love Disney!!

Tom Sawyer Island - who's that cute baby in the window??

Up in the fort

Of course, we had to visit Cinderella's carousel again.


Day 5: Relaxing at the Resort
Zaylee finally warmed up enough to "big" Mickey to give him a big kiss before we left.

This first family vacation couldn't have been any better!!
