Disney On Ice Worlds of Fantasy

We took Averi to her very first Disney On Ice show...well, actually it was a first for all three of us! Disney's Worlds of Fantasy was in Memphis at the FedEx Forum the weekend of September 25-27, so we went for the Sunday showing at 1 PM. We made sure we got there at least 45 minutes early because we had heard that they were going to display the Princess gowns & accessories AND a couple of the princesses would make short appearances as a pre-show! She was SO VERY EXCITED!! Not just about the princesses, but just to be surrounded by Disney everything! Of course we got suckered into buying her a $12 snowcone in a Tinkerbell souvenir mug + a $2 matching spoon/straw, a $10 bag of cotton candy with a flower hat, an $18 light-up spinny toy, AND a $7 box of popcorn...can you say BROKE?!! Holy Cow that stuff is expensive! I don't even know why they charge so much for admission because they know they're going to make a killing off of souvenirs and food!! Oh well, we were prepared to break the bank...what can you expect, it is a Disney production! And a very good one at that! The show included shorts of Cars, The Little Mermaid, The Lion King, and Tinkerbell and all of the shows were wonderful! Averi thoroughly enjoyed all of it! Can't wait to take her DOI's Finding Nemo here in Tupelo in November!!

Dress-Up Time!

As I stated in the previous post, Averi loves to get dressed up! She needs a separate closet just for her "dress-up" clothes & shoes....it's ridiculous! Oh wait--she's already claimed our spare room closet just for those things! CRAZY, but she's so cute all dolled-up to play tea party! Here are just a couple of pictures of some of her outfits...mind you, these were both worn on the SAME day!! Flapper Girl... Fairy girl...

Make-Up Artist!

Averi loves, Loves, LOVES to play dress-up and put on make-up! She can be such a girly-girl sometimes!! But obviously she needs to watch a Mommy apply some make-up because she certainly doesn't see me wearing eyeshadow, especially not like this...

No Autographs please! hehe!

Well, it's official...my daughter is now a local celebrity! Her first television commercial debuted today for An Affair to Remember, Inc. Ms. Patti, owner, asked if Averi could appear in a commercial for her store...so we went last week for the filming and the rest is history! No really, I was so proud of my Averi. She did awesome! She wasn't shy at all and did whatever the camera people asked of her! Last minute, I even got a little bit of camera-time too, but not by choice!! So please...NO AUTOGRAPHS!! haha! I really am proud of my baby girl...and her daddy is even prouder!!

Let's Go Bulldogs!

Well, it's that time of the year to cheer on our beloved Bulldogs! So here's to hoping for a GREAT Bulldog season!!
