Fairy dust

Ry put fairy dust on
her pink unicorn this afternoon
and it turned into a bunny!
**M.A.G.I.C.**


She also had school pictures today
and insisted on helping
pick out her outfit...


...and so it begins.
I've been dreading this day for
4 years, 5 months, & 4 days.


On the bright side
we both compromised and the
outfit was a success;)

Actually it was about 30 times bigger.

going to see a horse and an elephant
she was a little confused;)

American Girl Store

Today we went to the City
to the
AMERICAN GIRL STORE!
Rylee has been looking forward to this for a month now.
She was so excited
(so was I)



The store was
~AMAZING~


Rylee got her first American Girl doll.
She picked out one that lookes just like her.



Missy scheduled lunch for us for after
we went shopping.
The lunch was tasty and the
room was darling!
They even had chairs for the dolls to sit
in and tea for them to sip on;)


Such a fun experience for little girls!
Thanks Missy for another fun day!

Happy 25 to me!

This birthday Ry and I decided to head
to Chicago for a week and celebrate with
with Missy and the kids!
Missy made it a perfect day!
After the kids went to school Missy, Nora, Rylee, and I
went to a really yummy breakfast then shopping!

Later that evening we all went to
Red Robin for dinner!



Then back home for
Maggie Moo's oreo ice cream cake!


Missy tried out sparkler candles...


Matt built a lego fire truck just in case
they got a little out of hand;)

Thanks Missy for making it such a fun day!
