Katie & Cameron

Katie had another playdate with her friend Cameron. They were playing doctor and popping bubbles. They have a fun time together, I'm glad Katie has a friend :)

Haha, the kids are silly but they're so cute :)

Disneyland with Adam and Katie

David asked me to go to Disneyland with his friend so that he could spend some time with Katie while David's in Korea. We met up at noon and went on a few rides together.

 Katie went on most of the rides with Adam, she had a fun time with him.

 This was Katie's favorite part of the day. She always loves to see the Princesses. She was so excited jumping up and down. It made it all worth waiting 40 mins in line to see them.

 At 4pm Katie and Adam went home and Lauryn, Oscar and I took Katie on more rides.

 *Random Dancing*

 In line for Toy Story at California Adventure, where we spent the rest of the night.

 Katie adores the Ferris Wheel so much. She always asks to go on it every time we go to California Adventure. Of course we get the non-swinging ones! The swinging ones make me so sick!

It was such a fun day! I'm glad we were all able to go together, and most importantly Katie had a great time.

Disney On Ice: Lets Celebrate!

For Christmas, I had bought my family tickets to see "Disney On Ice: Lets Celebrate!" When we got there, they had a Cinderella cutout to take pictures with.

 We bought snacks for all the kids and then found our seats. The Long Beach Arena was not what I was expecting, it was cheap compared to the Staples Center, where I usually go for shows and concerts, but it was still a lot of fun. Now I know better for next time :p

 This was Samuel's first time drinking out of a straw I think. Everyone was excited, haha.

 The kids loved the show! It was so cute!

 The show was all about celebrations. They did a Very Merry Unbirthday, Halloween, Valentine's Day, Summer Vacation, and of course Christmas! :)

 Katie's favorite part was the Valentine's Day Princess Part! They were all dancing with their Prince.

 After the show, my Mom and I took Katie to Disneyland for a few hours since we have passes and we were close by, and I wanted to get my new season pass processed with my Mom's help, before I went next week with David's friends. It's a good thing my Mom did go with me, because it wasn't a simple process! She had ended up making a mistake and deleted the tickets from her e-mail, so she called and asked them what to do, and they told her where to go, but when we got the tickets, the date printed on them said they were expired, but we just got them today, so how could they be expired? They finally let us in and gave us our passes with our new pictures. Katie was happy to see her face on a Disneyland pass :)

 We only went on a few rides, but it was still a lot of fun. Katie loves Disneyland so much, we always have a fun time together.

 Somehow a boat got stuck when we were on It's A Small World. It was kinda funny, but sad for the worker. We were stuck there for about 10 minutes while he was trying desperately to push all the boats back so he could have enough room to fix the twisted boat. His whole face turned red as he used all his energy and some metal stick thing to right the problem.

 The Christmas decorations were supposed to be taken down by Jan 2, so I was happy to see that they were still up when we went. I hadn't had a chance to go on the Small World ride while it was Christmas-y this year, so I took the opportunity to go on tonight! :)

Snow Day 2

When we woke up to see that the snow was still here, Katie was excited. She got clothes to wear and we headed outside to play.

 Katie was having fun throwing snowballs at me, silly girl.

 We didn't have gloves, so our hands were freezing from touching the snow. The best we could do was make this minature snowman, haha.

 Checking her wagon

 After 40 mins, she was cold and wanted to go inside!

It was a fun day, but I'm glad the snow didn't stick around for too long, because it IS cold!

Palmdale's Snow Day

Today we looked outside to find that it was snowing! Katie was so excited. She brought her pink wagon out because she wanted it to catch a lot of snow for her. She left it outside all day and night hoping it would be full of snow when she went back to it. (It was halfway full the next day.)

 After we got cold at home, we went to my Grandma's house to play in the snow with David. The kids had fun in the backyard with my Mom :)

Katie's New Dollhouse

My Aunt Mary bought Katie a new dollhouse for Christmas. It took my Mom and me 2 hours to finally get it together. When we were finally done building it, it was taller than Katie. She liked it a lot and was excited to give her dolls a new home :) She got a lot of Disney Prince and Princess Barbies for Christmas, so it was perfect :)

 

This is how we spent our New Year's Eve :)
