Coloring and Painting

It was quite a busy day, full of color!Libi wore a colorful outfit to Nana and Pop's house.Then there was coloring with Pop.

Pop drew an amazing car for Libi. It was blue and she loved it!!!
They were both very serious about what they were making.

Nana wanted to get in on the art too-- so glad I had the video camera today!Before we left for nap-time there were lots of hugs for Pop...AND Libi did a photo shoot with Pop. I like the artistic sense she has!When I'm stressed out about Skipper Club and all the extra work it makes for me, I just think of this little girl's excitement and I forget about everything else.

Even though this song is new to Libs she still makes a joyful noise to the Lord and boogies her heart out.
Tonight Libi got to paint with watercolors, which she thoroughly enjoyed.It really is fun to go to Skipper Club!!

Another special day with Daddy


Today Libi had a great day at school!

It is Fall Break for a few of the districts in the valley so there weren't many kids at school today.

Libs requested a photo with Miss Tasha before we left school. Miss Tasha was happy to oblige.

As a special treat, Daddy took us to Yogurt with a Twist for ice cream.

Libi really enjoyed having Daddy home for a few days.

Mommy loves Yogurt with a Twist!!! Cookies and cream is the best!!!

What a nice surprise from Daddy!

After we all took a nap, it was time for dinner at ChiChi's with Meme and Pop-Pop.

At first Libs was a bit apprehensive around Pop-Pop, but by the end of the dinner they were fast friends.


We are so glad that they worked us in to their busy schedule. We hope they have a wonderful cruise!

Dancing and Disneyland with Daddy!!

Today is brought to you by the letter "D!" Ron is on Fall Break for the next 2 days so we are taking full advantage of having him home.Libi was thrilled to have Daddy at dance class.The kids were all in much better form today than they were last week.You can tell that Libi is getting really comfortable in this class-- she is dancing to the beat of her own drummer.Case in point!Here is the entire class doing "Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes" in a circle... the entire class except for Libs who is watching herself in the mirror.Miss Cheryl Anne must have faith in Libi too because today she was the leader of the train.Look at the concentration: arms down, no smile, focus on the mirror.... very intense!Libi was the lady in black today which made it easier to spot her.They measured the kids for their dance costumes today so the Moms were able to be in the studio for a bit. I took the opportunity to take lots of pictures! Here is Libi with her school chum Solea.Here are lots of the girls in the class-- we did a quick group shot.Here is Miss Libs tapping away while the other kids get measured. I love how she can dance without music.We changed Libs in the back of the car and headed to the Park!!On Main Street we saw lots of our favorite characters in their Halloween costumes: Pluto, Donald (who was impressed that Libi was wearing the same hat he was),Mickey, andMinnie.Libi asked that we have a family picture with Minnie-- love that girl!!!Our next stop was Pixie Hollow to meet up withROSETTA!!!! Yes, after months and months of visiting Pixie Hollow we finally met her!! Now I can complete a fairy scrapbook paige with Tinkerbell and all her friends!!We were a bit surprised to not see Tinkerbell today. In her place was a very sweet Iradessa, who spent lots of time with Libi.On the way to lunch we stopped in to Big Thunder Rance to see all the Halloween stuff they had there.Libi loved the goats...but wasn't a big fan of the pumpkin people!!After lunch we split up: Daddy went to ride the scary Space Mountain while Libi and I went to Critter Country.We saw Tigger andEeyore before a quick ride on Pooh. Then Libs asked for the Tiki Room which I am always happy to sit through!Daddy met up with us in time to ride Small World and to see the princesses-- lucky Daddy!!We were very lucky to be the last people in line to see the princesses today, so we got lots of time with them!The only princess that Libi wanted to see was Jazmine so we were very lucky that she was there.Our final ride was the train...where Libi took some more photos. Man, we need to get her a camera of her own!!!
