We flew out east to North Carolina to visit Jason's parents this past weekend. Here are some pics from the visit:

Tippy Toes

Saturday was Parent Observation Day at Hadley's Ballet. She is in the Tippy Toes 2 class and they do a lot of game play and learning the basics of ballet. I always watch from the partly closed blinds (so we can see in but the kids won't be distracted) but it is nice to be in there and get to see and hear what is going on!

My beautiful Ballerina


Miss Allie has Hadley demonstrate how to play the Statue Game..don't ask..it seemed way to hard for the kids but she says they get it and were just shy!


Hadley thinks her teacher is SOOO funny!


Practicing her moves!

Christmas Fever

Every Year I start planning, buying, and thinking about Christmas early..I mean really early! It is my favorite time of year for several reasons..1)love snow, 2)love to buy gifts for people (not big on recieving gifts..but love to buy them), and 3)it's all about family! And for the past few years the last one has been a big one for me. I know that every year at Christmas I get to go home for an entire week..you can't beat a better reason to love Christmas! So here I am, only 6 wks to go until Christmas and I have already bought Hadley..well..almost all on my list. And yes I will most likely keep shopping for her until Christmas..but it is impossible to NOT buy things for her..right?! I haven't started shopping for everyone else yet, I need to think and plan what I will get them first. We have also adopted a family this year from a local church..so I am VERY excited to get Hadley involved in this and make this a yearly tradition. I am anxiously awaiting for the day after Thanksgiving so I can bring out the tree, decorations, and gifts! I am also the Christmas dork who listens to Christmas music ALL the time!! I love the cheerful music, the stores and the holiday decorations everywhere!! And I plan and look forward to my day of shopping with Jason every year! We have our babysitter (man..I wish family was around to watch Hadley..it would save a lot!!), anyway, we have our babysitter set to watch Hadley so we can go and finish all our shopping..I just love it!!
So..I am early, but I couldn't wait to change my blog to Christmas and start getting everyone in the Christmas spirit!!

Another Dose of Sex..

Sex and The City that is!! I read today as I was doing my daily gossip/celeb blog reading that it has been confirmed that they will start shooting next summer the next Sex and The City Movie!!!



I LOVED the series and LOVED the movie..so I cannot wait for another one!!
And yes I am a dork and have the theme from the movie as my ring tone!!

It's a Bird..It's a Plane...

It's SUPERGIRL!! (or maybe not) Hadley had decided to be Supergirl for Halloween. She saw the costume at Target and loved it. I waited a couple weeks to buy it to make sure that is what she wanted..I was in shock she didn't want to be a princess! But that is what she wanted. So she got all dressed up as Supergirl for her Halloween Party at school...


and with her best friend, Valerie at school...




And as I suspected all the other girls at school were princesses. So when I picked Hadley up after school, first thing she said when we got in the car, "I don't want to be Supergirl. I want to be Snow White." So Supergirl lasted for half the day!! Luckily she had the Snow White Dress. And I happened to buy the shoes and head band at Disney last week to put aside for Christmas (by the way..Disney puts all Halloween costumes 50% off a week before..great Christmas dress up gifts!!). So, Snow White it was...


Hadley loved going Trick or Treating..every time she saw a house with a light on she ran up to it! She was a little scared of some of the houses that were decorated up..but she really enjoyed it. Half way through the night Mommy or Daddy had to carry the bag since it was so heavy!


After trick or treating for over an hour we decided it was time to head home and Hadley was getting tired..
