Trimmin' the Tree!

One of our annual traditions is going to cut down the "Best Christmas Tree Ever". We found it (although it was a little less "best" than normal)!

Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo!!!!

This year I really wanted Mom and I to surprise Maggie and let her do the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique! The "fairy god-mothers in training" give "princesses" a royal makeover there, and I really wanted Maggie to be able to do it since I had gotten to a couple years ago. Maggie was soooo excited! She had wanted to do it so bad! Well, Mom also surprised me and let me get mine done too! It was so much fun, they truly do make you feel like a princess! Here are some pictures!

Beaches and Cream!

This is our second time to be able to go to Beaches and Cream. The cheapest thing for our family to get is a HUGE sundae called the kitchen sink. They actually bring it in a sink, and it comes with cake and brownies in it and TONS of toppings...AND A WHOLE CAN OF WHIPPED CREAM on top! This year we did end up getting another small sundae so everyone could have a little more though!

Magic Kingdom!!!!

Ben took this awesome picture of the Wishes Spectacular fireworks Show!

Alligators!

While we were heading down to Ft. Lauderdale Florida for an auction benefit, we drove on a highway lined with rivers filled with alligators! Abe counted around 156 or something!!!!! And they weren't dinky little things either, these were like 8-10 foot alligators! Then we stopped off a nature thing to see them up close but still in the wild! Here are some pictures:

The Bubble Room!

Mom and Dad last ate at the Bubble Room when they were on their honeymoon! The parking lot was tiny, the food was great, and we had so much fun!

I love the colors of the fence!

The Beach!

While we were on our trip we were able to stop a quite a few beaches, here are some shots!
