The Lion King

Scott surprised me on my birthday by getting me tickets to see the Lion King performace in Oklahoma City. I was so excited to see it! I always wanted to see it because I thought the costumes would be amazing...and I was NOT dissappointed!! It was incredible!! I've been to MANY performaces, but never one so impressive as Lion King!! People not only clapped, but whooped & hollered after the opening number & the curtain drop! It was amazing! I was left speechless!! I now wish that we would have brought Lydia to see it too....hopefully it will come back soon & we will take the girls! We will be awe-struck! I know I was!

I loved it so much that I paid $25 for a Lion King T-shirt! I've never bought a shirt at a performace before! That's how awesome it was!



BRAVO, Disney's Lion King! Well done!! The costumes were breath-taking!!

Lydia's last days of preschool

Lydia's last day of preschool at Peace was May 20th. She loved every minute of preschool & Ms. Marsha was the best preschool teacher we could have asked for!! She made coming to school & learning so fun & exciting! We were really glad she was part of Lydia's school experience! next year Lydia will go back to Peace preschool for Pre-K & she'll have Ms Terry. At first, Lydia was not so sure about that...she wanted to have Ms Marsha again, but I told her she would still see Ms Marsha & could say hi to her.

I thought Lydia may be a little sad to leave her friends...it was a little bittersweet for me, but Lydia didn't seem to mind. I think she was glad to be home for a while.

Touch a truck

The Edmond MOM's club has held a "touch a truck" event for the last 2 years. Last year was the first & we really enjoyed it. This was the second year & man, had it grown! There were twice as many trucks to crawl in, honk the horn, sit on & in. It was awesome! My girls really enjoyed every truck!

Lydia's first movie experience!

On Saturday April 25, 2009, Scott & I took Lydia to her first moive, Earth, at the Harkin's Theater in Bricktown.

Lydia was very excited & so was I! She LOVED it! The movie was AMAZING! In was a hour & a half long, & she got a little "antsy" after about an hour, but over all she did great!

Thoughtful Thursday!

OK OK....I haven't been blogging in a while because I haven't downloaded pictures lately. I like to add a picture to go along with the post. Life has been exciting!! All those "exciting" pictures are on my camera!! I like to wait until I have at least 100 pictures to download...I think after this Mother's day weekend in Woodward there will be enough pictures to down load...

Here are the "hightlights" of the last few weeks:

1. In late April, we took Lydia to see her first movie, Earth, in the theather! We went to the Bricktown theather & she loved it!

2. We MISSED the Heartwalk in Stillwater because of the flooding, pouring rain on May 2nd!! I was upset & so was Lydia! She was ready to "go walk for baby Addy!" She had her Addy shirt on ready to go!

3. At Peace Preschool, Lydia had a "letter parade". They picked their favorite letter & of course we chose "L". We decorated it with a ladybug, lollipop, lion, lamb, Lydia, lightning, & love. We added scripture to every item. It was really sweet!

I will add pictures as soon as I download them....don't give up on me!:)
