Dagny sees "SNOWY DAY."

For a friends birthday, Dagny went to see "Snow Day." They were adorable sitting together in the front row.




After the show, Dagny and her BFF played, danced and sang on the outdoor stage.



Dagny and her Manatee friends practice for their performance.

Ainsley is a DAISY

Here is Ainsley at her first Daisy Troop event at Color Me Mine.

Someone lost a tooth!

Sadie! :-)... And Ainsley!

Ainsley's gray tooth (the one she damaged when she was 18 months old when she smacked her teeth on a table) finally had to come out. Over 4 years later, she hit it once again on a cart at Target :-). This time the damage caused an infection. She was a trooper!

Sadie lost a puppy tooth earlier this month.

Both received visits from the tooth fairy :-).

Dinner at the Hilton

The girls were very excited to go to the Hilton for Christmas dinner and see where Mommy and Daddy got married.

Christmas in Florida

The girls were so excited to wake up and discover that Santa had found them in Florida!

Winter (and Hope and Panama)

We headed to Clearwater to visit Winter. Ainsley, Dagny and Caiden had all recently watched the movie and were really excited to see her in person. We held her prosthetic (or rather an older version) and watcher her swim with and without the prosthetic. We also met Panama and Hope, two dolphins who also reside at the aquarium, unable to return back to the ocean. Hope was the dolphin they found at the end of the movie, Panama is Deaf.

Seaworld!

On the spur of the moment, we decided to take the girls to Seaworld. It ended up being a perfect day to visit, the weather was beautiful and the park wasn't too crowded.

Sunny and Warm!

We were lucky to be able to head down to Florida to warm up before winter is in full swing. We welcomed in winter by sitting outside and listening to the waves.

We spent a few days with Stacey, Chris and Caiden before they headed back home for the holiday.

Ainsley reads with her dad

Eating Chicken Soup With Rice

Ainsley and the Herons performed this song at our last Community Meeting. She and Dangy LOVE to listen to it daily :-).

SANTA!

We actually got them both with Santa this year!!!

Letters to Santa

Ainsley wants just a few things.


Dagny has a narrative for hers that basically asks for a stuffed kitty and puppy.

Christmas Tree

Though not as adventurous as going out to the middle of the woods, we still had fun picking out our Christmas tree this year.

Happy Thanksgiving!

This year for Thanksgiving we ventured out to a small restaurant called Normandie Farms. The weather was BEAUTIFUL! The food was delicious... including the pumpkin soup!











The girls loved running around outside after we ate. They especially loved climbing the tree.
