Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween

We were fortunate to have tickets given to us to go to Disney for the not-so-scary Halloween party. The kids were extremely excited plus they got to dress up early! Morgan wanted to be Hannah Montana....how did we do??

T.J. wanted to be a cowboy...Todd kept calling him Billy Ray Cyrus since that is Hannah's dad (for all you out their who don't have 9 yr old girls in love with Hannah Montana!!)

We had a great family time together riding rides with barely any lines (Praise the Lord!), eating popcorn and looking at all the fabulous costumes people had on. The best "family" costume was a family of four who dressed up as the Incredibles...really cool! The party started at 7:00 and went until 12:00. Because it was a school night we started leaving around 11:15 and did not get home until 1:00....check out the ride home....

Girls night out

Jenni, Deanna & I got to have a girls night out last week :o) We went to the Millenia Mall and shopped til we dropped! We were buzzing in every store we could...you know we only had three hours to see the whole mall! We even postponed dinner so we could have more time shopping. Deanna had to go to Estee Lauder to get her free gift...I mean makeup! The girl there was super sweet and redid all our lips...she "plumped" them up!! Then off we went to Brio and just stuffed ourselves with a fabulous dinner that we didn't have to cook!! Whoo-hoo! We had a great time catching up and getting away for a short time.

Lunch with great friends

What a great day we had with special friends. We had Matt & Courtney Baker, Rhyann & Evynn and Alex & Adrienne Morales, Aaron & Elena over for lunch after church today. Matt, Adrienne and I all grew up together and our parents are best friends. It was so cool to have the next generation of our families together!
Aaron and T.J. are good buddies.

Good Times

UCF Let's GO KNIGHTS!!

Saturday we went to the very first UCF football game in the new stadium! It was such an awesome day...despite being a million degrees and our tailgating tent being stolen! We got on campus at 9:00 and played football, walked around and shopped some in the Barnes & Noble. We were invited to a tailgating party where they rented an R.V. for the day! Praise the Lord for A.C.!!

Our future Golden Knight cheerleader??

Ashley's new doo!

Well...I decided Thursday that I needed a haircut...and on Friday I was in the salon chair with a picture of a new style I wanted!!! I love the change and thought I would share my before and after pictures that I took.

T.J.'s family birthday party

We kept it simple for a party and invited Mum & PawPaw, Grandma Carlisle, Aunt Courtney, Kenny, Jenni, Savannah & Josh Hobbs. T.J. picked out his ice cream cake at Bruesters today and of course got them to write "Happy Birthday T.J." in his favorite color...orange! We all sang happy birthday and got all sugared up again!! The cake was soooo good! It was vanilla ice cream, caramel and vanilla cake...yummy!

T.J. opened his gifts and got a Super Soaker water gun, a Pirates of the Carribean coloring book, and lots of gift cards. He will love going shopping!

What a great day! It is hard to believe my baby is 7 years old...he sure is growing up fast!
