Last Day of School !!

Wow, where has this school year gone?? It was just the other day I was dropping Melody off for the FIRST day of preschool, and my son to his first day in second grade and here we are today on the last day of school..

I really can't say much about my son's school year. Except for 1 serious issue that we had with bullying in school. There was a kid in the school just hounding my son and I put a stop to that quick. Parents we can not ignore this!! I went straight to his teacher and school principle and made them aware of this issue. We can not allow children to be scared and abused in our schools. My son works hard and is actually a very good boy so other than that he had a pretty good school year.

Melody on the other hand was very different. Melody cried every single day! She cried from her second day of school in August through mid November, and let's remember she still cried after a long weekend or a holiday. The one thing about Melody is she tried very hard this school year and even though it was hard for her, it was even harder for me. It hurt me so much to leave her there crying those mornings..

Here she in the last time she will walk into school for Preschool.. Notice her bag with the bunny she takes every morning and puts in her cubby...




Here are a few pictures of her and her friends on the last day...




Here is a picture of the cubby's with no picture anymore =(




I then left to go get the teacher's gift cards for my kids to give them as an appreciation for a wonderful school year.. I got back and said goodbye to everyone and that I would see them at night.. She hugged everyone and make her final walk out the preschool doors :'( lol doesn't she look excited..



I will miss seeing that School Bell every morning!




Here is the final drive of 2009/2010 school year to pick up my 2nd grader who showed up with the following sweet treat!!






My Little Man is going to 3rd grade!!

Princess Night!!!

It was time to get ready for our special planned evening. We got to the hotel at about 6:30 PM and I put the kids right into the shower. First we got Tristin in the tub and scrubbed his beard off, lol that process took some time. Then it was Melody's turn but luckily her make-up washed right off.. After the kids we took our turn to shower and started getting ready. I was actually excited since I had heard nothing but good things about this place..

Can we say Happily Ever After!

We arrived at 1900 Park Fare and from the moment we walked in she was in total shock. When we entered the dining room and she saw Cinderella, her face was just glowing..

The entire walk to the table you can tell she was excited! She kept looking back to get a glimpse of all the characters inside the restaurant.. The moment we sat down we noticed Lady Tremaine was coming towards us and Cinderella was not that far behind her. It was actually funny cause Melody was worried that Tremaine might do something bad to Cinderella....

Lady Tremaine and the kids..

Cinderella with Melody!!

Then Drizella came over and decide to bother Tristin a bit... LOL

Drizella with her HUGE smile and Melody...

She bothered Tristin so much that she finally got him to pose with her and

Melody for a picture, HAHAHAHAHA Tristin just wanted to eat...

A few minutes after they called everyone who was celebrating a special event to join Drizella and Anastasia on the center of the main floor. It was so cute looking at all the little kids running towards them and just having a great time..

I was even more happy to see my baby girl just loving her special night.. She was just enjoying everything that was going on. To see her smiling and giggling with pure joy and excitement made my night complete..

Notice how she holds her dress as if she was wearing a princess ball dress, LOL so cute!

Then came the very loud but very funny Anastasia.
Melody really likes her ;)

We were soon finishing up with dinner when we realized that Prince Charmin had not been by our table. Dad decided to mention it to our waiter who soon got a cast member involved and told us that they were very sorry, the prince did not realize that he missed our section..

Finally the cast member came over again and escorted the kids and I to a secret location where the "prince" would be meeting us.. I thought it was really nice of them to get him back for us..

While I was away meeting the prince, daddy created this masterpiece for me...

We finally finished up dinner and headed outside to catch the Magic Kingdom's fireworks "Wishes" was about to start and we wanted to see it from across the Seven Seas Lagoon.. We actually LOVED the view and the kids thought it was cool too...



While waiting a bit for the marina to clear we noticed the boats from the Electrical Water Pageant were coming back towards us to go into where the parade storage area is. I thought it was cool that the guy driving the boat turned it on for a second so the kids could see it..

It was truly a wonderful day that ended with a very special night!

So we finally headed back to our resort.. I had to put the kids in bed and do some packing since we were leaving the next day.. While getting everything done I realize daddy was eating more birthday cake... Did I mentioned how good and tasty the cake was? It was real good!!

Time to say goodnight!!

My Baby Girl turns 5 :D

I can't believe that my little lady turns 5 today...




I teared up this morning realizing that my baby girl is getting older..
Where has time gone?

I am blessed to have her as my child! She is an amazing little lady who warms my heart and makes me smile even when I am down. Today, I will celebrate her and her birth!


We started her birthday celebrations at her preschool. It was great to see her so excited to celebrate with her friends. When she walked into the school all the kids in her class began to cheer for her, she got lots of hugs and they made her feel extra special.


Here are the cupcakes.. They were so good and moist!

This is how we set up the table at school..


The kids were so excited!

Here they are singing Happy Birthday.




With some of her friends and she even got a little messy ;)






After eating and celebrating inside the school they went outside to the playground and jumped, climbed and just played off some of the sugar from those yummy cupcakes.



In my opinion the school party was a huge success..

The party was very simple to plan and came out very nice.. I did not have to spend a lot of money to make it special nor was there a whole lot of cleaning up to do after. The most important thing to me was that she was extreamly happy to have all her friends there with her..


The kids all had a wonderful time and the birthday girl was very Happy.. It was a very GOOD day!
