American Girl Place

Cutie was so excited to go to AGP today to have lunch and buy Samantha and Nellie's pjs for herself. Last year she had enough money to buy the pjs for the dolls and this year she had saved enough money to buy one herself. She was heartbroken when we arrived and were told that Samantha and Nellie have become collector dolls...they have been locked away in the vault! You can no longer buy their accessories or the dolls! She was so sad! I was devastated for her! However, we were told that the dolls are now selling for $400-$500 on ebay! I haven't checked that figure yet! We won't be selling her dolls anyway!
Cutie decided to spend her money on Julie. The doll she wanted last year, but didn't have enough money to buy. She was actually a little short this year too! So, we put a call into daddy. (we do that every year!) How can hubby say no to her?! He pitched in the rest...and the day was much brighter! Happy Birthday Cutie!

Cutie chose the mini burger and hot dog again this year!

Chloe's 9th Birthday

Cutie turned 9 this week. I can't believe it! She is getting so big! Her requests were simple this year! Melt-in-your-mouth pancakes and eggs for breakfast, hot tub with hot chocolate and marshmellows after breakfast, Disneyland with a friend AND lunch with mom at the American Girl Store with a friend. Here are some pictures from her special day. American Girl Store is scheduled for Saturday! I think she requested that more for me than her! I love going there with her! Happy Birthday Cutie! We love you and are so proud of you!

Hubby and Tiger Go Fishing

Hubby and Tiger woke up at 4 am on Sat and went fishing with some guys from Hubby's work. They had such a great time together. Tiger ended up catching 6 fish! (Hubby caught 2...and Tiger is too sweet to rub that in!) The guide on the boat even cleaned and filleted the fish for Bryce...so tonight we are going to grill them up and have them for dinner. He is so excited that he brought home dinner for the family!


Tiger caught two fish on one pole! What a stud!

This is my favorite picture of Tiger

Hubby is so proud of Tiger!

Tiger is such a tender-loving boy. The entire time they were fishing, Tiger kept turning to Hubby and saying, "Oh dad, it would be so cool if Little Guy was here with us! I wish Little Guy was here!" When they got home, Tiger told Little Guy all about it...and told him how much he missed him! It was precious. Little Guy has one more year until he is old to go fishing on this boat! What heaven that will be for hubby when he can take all his boys together. Although, it was very special to have some father/son time with just Tiger.

Mother/Daughter Luncheon

Cutie and I were able to attend the Mother/Daughter Luncheon last weekend together. I still can't believe my baby is almost 9 years old! Where is the time going? She sang, "This is My Father's World" with the girls choir after lunch. So sweet to listen to them sing and have an afternoon just the two of us. I will always treasure each moment with her. She is such a fun, loving and super silly girl! I love you Cutie!
