Disney Trip 2012

I KNEW this was going to be a good year for Disney for Ross!
She watches Mickey Mouse Clubhouse way more than normal parents would 
let her and can tell you the plot to almost every princess movie out.
It was a shoe-in.


Every year we do at least one "Character Meal" with the kids. 
They are fabulous. 
It costs a little, but it's worth it!


Each character comes by your table for plenty of pictures and hugs
...all while you eat!


We've chosen "Chef Mickey" 2 years in a row now, 
mainly because it has all the "main" characters.






Ross was all about the rides this year. Every bit of it facinated her!
No doubt, her favorites were "It's a Small World," 


"The People Movers,"



"The Magic Carpet Ride"





and the NEW "Little Mermaid" ride.
(Which really is pretty fabulous, I might add...)



For the first time this year, we decided to eat at "Cinderella's Royal Table."


This, of course, is where you eat in Cinderella's castle...with all the princesses.






Again, it's a bit pricey, but it was pretty special...
and probably not something we'll do every year.


I can't tell you how wonderful it was to watch Ross enjoy this so much. It honestly brought me to tears a few times. I feel so fortunate that we have the opportunity to experience it with her every year.
It really was a great time...and a trip Ross will probably be talking about up until next year!

An Early Christmas Celebration

Over at the Marsh household, we celebrated Christmas a little early this year 
(mainly due to the fact that Cullie might just have a new little baby girl Christmas day)!


I'm SO excited for Ross this year. This year, she REALLY gets it! She can truly start understanding what goes on at Christmas...


and this year, it comes with PRINCESSES. (Which is mostly my fault for pushing it on her more than ever for our Disney trip coming up next month.)


I wish I could describe her excitement when she opened a box filled with not only princesses, but PRINCES to go with...because a princess just doesn't survive without a prince- in her world.



She has spent every waking second since singing and dancing with them...



and that's been pretty special for all of us.

Weekend Trip to the Mountain House

Although we were originally supposed to spend the weekend in the mountains with the whole family, it ended up plans fell through...so Grady and I decided to take Ross anyway!


We ventured out to the very first Mast General Store...



where Ross was truly a "kid in a candy store!"


And, we had our first family gem mining experience.



It turned out to be such a sweet, little weekend...
one of our last as a family of 3.
