Fun Events...

My mom and I took Tylie to watch her first play "Annie" at the Broadway Palm. You get to eat dinner then watch the play. I love this movie! Tylie loved that she got to pick out all her dessert!

She never wants to take pictures!

We couldn't get Tylie to go up to the actress who played Annie but she was so sweet and came up to her.

My parents and I took the girls to a horse and buggy ride at Kierland Commons in Scottsdale. It was so fun and it even "snowed" in Arizona!

A short line ended up being a couple hour wait. Once we waited about an hour we felt stuck to wait the whole time and Tylie was determined to ride the buggy

It was worth the wait! We shopped and drank hot chocolate while waiting. I love Christmas :)

Tylie's five!

This year we surprised Tylie and took her to Disneyland on her birthday. I took her out of preschool thinking we were moving soon so she doesn't have a ton of friends for a party and I thought she would get in for free to Disneyland but I guess that was just for last year. We took her anyways and my mom and sister in law watched Brynn for us. It was so nice to have just Tylie time! And oh how she loved being the only kid in the car. She talked literally nonstop the whole way to Cali. Not a minute of sleep for that girl. Even when we took her to Cheesecake Factory the night we got there, she was chatting away and we thought she would be exhausted and fall right to sleep at the hotel but this girl needs an off button because she could not fall asleep!

This was her face during the Pinnochio ride. It is pretty freaky. Don't take your kids on this ride first! They will not want to go on any ride after that!!

Tea Cups

Her favorite thing we did at Disneyland (she will tell you) was meeting Rapunzel. The funny thing is we waiting to see her for an hour, and just as we were walking into the room Tylie started crying and running away saying she didn't want to go. Haha! Ya right! We waiting for EVER and you are going to meet her! So we forced her but later she loved it.

We got her to go on Thunder Mountain Railroad and Splash Mountain but she was pretty scared. She loved the Nemo ride which I almost had a panic attack on because I was so claustrophobic! All in all it was a fun quick trip!

We had a couple friends celebrate at the park and it happened to be the most perfect weather that day in the 70s

Celebrating with my family after her birthday. She loves the Rapunzel dress and wig I got her!

And thanks to the wig there is hair ALL over my house, car, clothes etc...

One more party to come with the Haughts. Sheesh! I lot of birthday parties for this girl!

How the heck did I get a five year old?? I love my crazy Tylie to pieces!!

Family Favorite...

Every year that we have been in Tucson we have gone to Apple Annies in Wilcox. This has become such a fun family tradition that we had to go one last time!

First we stop and eat at the Pizza Hut. Or I should say scarf down our food as fast as we can while Brynn screams.

We get there, grab some buckets and a wagon and start picking our own apples. We like the Fuji the best. Dallas gets pretty high in the trees to get the good ones!

Best apples I have ever had!

This year they had apple cider donuts! Um Yum!!

And of course apple ice cream. Tylie was getting cold, which meant it wasn't 100 degrees out. Nice!

Then we go over to get the pumpkins and the girls are getting tired at this point...

So we grab two that really aren't perfect but oh well!

The girls laugh and giggle. Brynn eats her feet..

And finally she nocks out!

Both at the same time! Must have been a fun day :) We will miss you Apple Annies!!
