Can't Wait!!

In just 2 weeks my friends and I are going to this event!!! It will be so much fun. It is in Vegas and the presenters are Teresa Collins, Layle Koncar, and Janna Wilson. I love all of their stuff and can't wait for all the fun. Ginger at Down to Details has been organizing it all and has a ton of sponsors. A few sneak peeks have been posted by Teresa and Janna. All I can say is FABULOUS!!! I am really looking forward to hanging out, scrapbooking and not to mention being in VEGAS!!!

Went to Disneyland yesterday and here are a few of my favorite pics..

Every time we go, we have to ride on the horse drawn street car. Sammie even knows the horses' names. This horse is a new one named Big Red.


It was a great day at the park and it wasn't very crowded which is exactly how I like to go. Alice grabbed Sammie's hand, and the Mad Hatter, Sammie and Alice all walked along while I snapped this pic.


All summer long, Sammie had to wear her "magic boots" so she would be tall enough to ride some of the rides. She loves Space Mountain, the Matterhorn, Splash Mountain, Big Thunder, and especially Tower of Terror. She is finally tall enough to ride these rides without her magic boots!! The minimum height for those rides is 40" and she was 39" without the boots! She finally made it and was so happy! ( she sure has been eating lots of healthy foods so she can grow!)




Today in the mail her Halloween costume came. What should a 4 year old horse-loving princess be for Halloween you ask??? A pink princess unicorn of course!!! She dressed up as a horse like this 2 years ago and she loved it. She still wears the costume and prances around the house neighing. I like the idea that she can wear it again after Halloween. They don't even get to dress up in preschool. How sad is that???


On Sunday we went to the park but before we went, she asked if we could stop at Starbucks so she could have a "pink coffee". Yep, she's starting young. (The pink coffee is really a strawberry smoothie. ) On that note, I had an incident a few weeks ago with a Starbucks lid falling off my drink and making a huge mess in the car, filling both of my drink holders. I went back to the store where I got the drink and explained what happened and then had to scoop the ice out of my drink holders with my hands and then dry up all the tea with a towel. I emailed Starbucks to tell them I wasn't a fan of their new environmentally friendly cups and explained what happened. Today I received a $20.00 gift card in the mail!! YEA Starbucks!! Thanks for your wonderful customer service!





We had a horsey lesson with a new trainer. Her name is Victoria and she is very nice. This is her pony, Flicka, who she is training to ride and her other horse, Joey, who Sammie got to ride.



Christine had a Stampin' Up party and our friend Jennifer is a demonstrator. We had a great class on Sunday and learned how to make a box of cards. Jennifer is so talented and we had a lot of fun. I'll post some pics soon. I ordered some new inks and a scallop border punch. If you want to host a party or order some new stamps, check out Jennifer's blog. There are monthly specials as well. That's all for now.
