Disney Live, Bentleyville & Tree Decorating

We took the kids down to Bentleyville the other night.  Its a free walking lights tour down on the waterfront.  Its amazing!  It took us about an hour or so to walk the tour.  They give you free hot chocolate, free popcorn, free cookies and free marshmallows to roast over an open fire outside!  It was magical!  Santa was there, but the line was too long and it was 29 degrees outside.  I wasn't waiting...lol.














On Friday, Disney Live came to Duluth!  It was the story of Snow White, Cinderella and Beauty and the Beast.  Sadly, I forgot my camera.  However, the look on Evie's face (she had NO IDEA we were going) was priceless!  She was mesmorized, sang every song and was in princess heaven! She is now asking for DisneyWorld every day and Im thinking a trip may be in the near future for our little Princess!

We set up the tree Friday night.  Evie was in charge of putting up all the decorations.  Needless to say, they are all on her level.  We decided to keep the tree that way and just let the kids decorate however they feel every year!
















3 months old today!

I can NOT believe Ollie is 3 months old today.  Good lord, time is literally flying by!  Before I know it, both he and Evie will be in school!  He is holding his head up really well, though he still has a bobble head!  He has started to grab at things while in his bouncer and his bassinet!  Today, he found the animals that are on the feet of his sleepers!  Its adorable!

Ollie's Room & Snow!

Well, we finally put the crib up today!  He won't be going in his room until probably January (or maybe never...lol) but Derek had some kind of itch to do it.  I put the wall decorations up.  I need a few other things (like curtain rods, bring the glider upstairs, etc) for it to be completely finished, but here is a few of the wall!  The bumper won't fit until the bed is lowered so that will come much later!






We are getting our first real snow today!  Derek and Evie got all bundled up (she looks like the kid from A Christmas Story) and tried to make a snowman, but the snow isnt packed enough (no idea what that even means....) so they laid on the driveway and made snow angels, chased Stella (who is in HEAVEN with this cold weather) and played with the neighbors!
