The first Halloween Parade!

10.27.10 was filled with firsts. Besides it being Eric's birthday (his first and last at age 34?), Emerson was in her first Halloween Parade at school. Bryce slept in his crib for the first time and managed to sleep from 10 PM till 8 AM. Emerson managed to not need a pull-up at night. Yippie! Here is to me not jinxing myself!

Epcot has a secret bar hidden in the temple in Mexico!

Really not that big of a secret, but they have some sweet "flights" and chasers. Epcot was also celebrating the World Wine, Food and Beer fest which translates into spending a crap load of cash on a bunch of random things. Costly, but cool. Emerson wasn;t that impressed with it, till I started buying her little things from the countries. Unfortunately the sword purchased in Norway was lost prior to the amazing fireworks.

A Day at the Beach...

On Saturday we went to a beach "near" Jenna and Daryl's. Beautiful! Emerson got to fly a kite, play with Prince Phillip (Arghhhhh) and build a sand castle, while Bryce discovered he had feet!

Aunt Jenna's and Uncle Daryl's!

We took the hot minivan two hours South for a few days to visit with Jenna and Daryl. Way fun! Their house is awesome and Emerson loved hanging out there.

Princess meltdown...

Disney is smart. They put their characters into controlled rooms, allow only a limited amount of people in at a time and even place photographers for you to use. This gives them control and makes you feel like you are getting some type of special treatment. It also allows only a certain amount of people to see your three year old daughter breakdown at the sight of her favorite princess, Sleeping Beauty. Emerson was so overwhelmed with the so-so imposture that she couldn't even walk up to her. We had to visit with Cindy and Belle before returning and that didn't even work. Once again... the 13 year old and Justin Beiber theory continues.

Best darn 10 bucks!

So... 10 dollars for the stinkin balloon might seem a little too much... but it is not. That thing was a life saver. We carried it around with us and tied it to the stroller. It allowed us to find one another and provided entertainment for Emerson.
