Legoland Amusement Park

By -
Our first day in the park was awesome!
It would be an understatement to say the kids were excited!

They loved the breakfast at the hotel. The buffet was right up their alley and meeting characters was an added bonus.



We couldn't believe how close the hotel is to the park! It is just a few steps and such an easy entrance. That gave us a relaxing start to the day!

We quickly got to riding rides. They loved all of them! Roller coasters, too!









A two story carousel was super cool!

We caught the water ski show, which was neat. 







We couldn't resist Emmett and Wildstyle!


We thought the vacationer sculpture was hilarious! The whole in his sock was a great detail.

 The kids were so enthused about all the cool Lego details around. They wanted pictures with all of them!






Sarah Graves was so thrilled to visit Heart Lake City and see all the girls! 

 I thought this ride was super cool because it spun out over the water and felt really neat.


To our surprise the kids really loved the Duplo area. It is totally geared toward toddlers, but they had fun.

Our only disappointment was riding the Quest for Chi. They warned you get wet, but they should have said you get drenched! I mean to the bone! The kids took off their wet shirts and wore their jackets the rest of the day. When we got off Charlie said, "that was humiliating!" because people were watching us, laughing and shooting more water at us! It was the end of the day and they wanted to head back to the pool anyway.

After swimming and showering, we enjoyed a late dinner out. I think we all thoroughly enjoyed our day!

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
