Bippity Boppity Boutique on the Disney Cruise

I've always wanted to take the girls to the BBB at Disneyland and never had the chance sooooo we were so excited to find out they had one on the ship!!We debated just letting the girls go but they had such cool packages for the boys too that we ended up treating all 4 kids to it first thing on embarkation day! Sophia choose the "mermaid" package, Olivia choose "Rapunzel", Bentley choose to be a ship captain and Preston choose a knight! The girls packages were over the top with beautiful jewelry and going and nail polishes and pixie dust and of course their hair done.  The boys packages included getting their hair done as well.  It was so fun watching them run around the boutique picking out their outfits and then they were able to all wear them in the dining room on the first night.  Bentley loved his captains suit so much he wore it the next night too!!

Olivia gets her ears pierced:)

Olivia has gone back and forth for a long time about getting her ears pierced and finally she decided she's wait until she was much older.  That was until Sophia's friend Sophia began her mission to get Olivia to agree to pierce her ears!! We were all in Claire's  and mission "get Olivia ears pierced" was in full effect.  They worked on her for about an hour and finally she was all in.  She was super excited and full of smiles the entire time leading up.  Thankfully there were 2 girls so both ears were pierced at the same time.  Olivia eeked out 1 tear and buried her head into the stuffed pillows.  It was such a sweet moment when both Soph's were there to comfort her.  Honestly, she never mentioned a word about pain to this day! He ears never swelled, never hurt(and mommy did not even do a great job at cleaning them...woops!).  Such a brave girl!!

Too much Fall fun!

We love Fall!! It tends to be the beginning of the crazy season with all our birthday and holidays but it's my absolute favorite.  We go all out with decorating the house and the kids as daily leading up to October. Last weekend we took a Pumpkinliner train from Filmore for the first time and we had a blast! It dropped us off at a small festival where there was a haunted house, corn maze, and face painting and of course we brought home the most gigantic pumpkin to carve!
