Frozen Summer Fun!

By -
We were all super-excited for our day at Hollywood Studios enjoying all of the Frozen Summer Fun event.  We arrived before park opening so that we could get in quickly to enjoy the Frozen themed park opening.  


The opening was a cute number with an animated Olaf and a Disney host to get everyone excited for the events.  








We were happy to pose with our take along Olaf.  He doesn't make a great fan, but he is cute!  Charlie did not wish to be pictured with his Olaf :)

We had a bit of time to look around before we could check-in and pick up our passes for the special Frozen events and make our reservation for the sing-along.  Once we had our passes, we had a little time to kill before we headed to the reserved area for the parade!
The passes allowed us into the reserved area and they provided frozen treats and drinks, which were much appreciated in the warm, Orlando weather.  It was done in great Disney fashion where no one felt rushed or like there was any chance they might run out of treats.  

The parade was neat to see and included many "Frozen" people on different varieties of skates.  These guys had on skates to look like skiers!

Kristof came out on his own float and looked very handsome!


Sarah Graves and this little girl Delaney became buddies while watching the parade.  

We were quite eager to catch a glimpse of the main attraction and cheered as Anna and Elsa paraded in.  

We were really excited to see Anna point Sarah Graves out and tell her she liked her dress!

Charlie was all eyes on the parade as he watched from Daddy's shoulders.

The parade ends at the stage and Anna and Elsa come up to the stage and the entertainment continues on.  Jeanne' had heard someone explain how the rope from the reserved area would be opened and we would get to head toward the stage.  With that in mind, Sarah Graves and I headed right for the front and had a great view of them.  

Elsa even performed "Let It Go" for the crowd and then it began to "snow" on us.  It was truly magical!

Charlie loved it as much as Sissy!

Frozen Party Details

Like most girls her age, Sarah Graves LOVES Frozen and has known for quite some time that she wanted a Frozen birthday party. I was so excited when I saw this invitation on Etsy and she loved it too! It reminded me of an infographic. The Frozen theme was a lot of fun! There were so many things to choose from that I took to pinterest and eventually decided on the ideas that I would use for this party. I found this great Arendelle banner here on Pinterest I was so grateful that my sister did a snowflake Christmas and had tons of snowflake ornaments to hang as decorations! This party theme was a lot of fun to plan the food. Kristoff's ice cubes were made from Jell-o with an ombre effect. I found the recipe here on Pinterest. I doubled the recipe to make a 13x9 size pan of it and I made 2 13x9 pans of it. The made plenty of "ice cubes" to fill 35 cups. They turned out really cute! My parents made this Elsa cake and did a fabulous job

Cloth vs. Disposable

By -
We have mostly been planning to do disposable diapers because I felt that cloth would just be too much work when I go back to work.  Then, we saw these diapers called happy heiny's ( www.happyheinys.com ).  These looked much different than what I envisioned cloth diapers to look like.  Mom used cloth diapers with me and Jeanne', so she felt totally up for using them while Sarah Graves is at her house.  I started looking into the cost comparison and depending on what type of cloth diapers you buy, you can save anywhere from $1200 - $1700.  That is pretty attractive, not to mention knowing that you aren't filling up a landfill somewhere.  There are lots of different varieties of cloth diapers out there, but the ones that seem to be a good investment and user friendly are diapers that have snap closures, with a pocket for an insert to absorb the contents, and they are one size that adjusts as your baby grows from a newborn up to 35 pounds.  You can also purchase the traditio
