*Celebration-a-thon*

It’s official. Annabelle Brandt has the most celebrated birthday of all birthdays!! This week, much to Annabelle’s disappointment, we were forced to put an end to the partying….AFTER a few more celebrations of course…

This weekend Annabelle had celebrated her birthday party with friends at OOP’S Bowling Alley. She had such a good time & I would highly recommend OOPS to anyone looking for a perfect birthday spot. The kids played in the arcade (with tokens provided by OOPS), had tons of cake and ice cream, and of course got their bowl on. I think everyone had a blast!! Annabelle was definitely enjoying the celebrating as well. She received a very “cool” outfit from Nana & Papa,  Some $ and CANDY from Nana P & Bubs, a target giftcard, some Baby doll toys, a “Password Journal”, some Beyblades and lots more goodies too!

The crazy shot!

That afternoon we had one last celebration at the house. (We were trying to avoid forcing people without kids to have to suffer possibly bowling alley chaos) Per Annabelle’s request we had a hot dog bar, chips & dip, rainbow cupcakes & ice cream.  I’ll be disappointed when she gets a more “sophisticated pallet” because right now she is a mighty easy lady to please!

I'm so proud of these cupcakes!

Genius.

We still owe Annabelle 2 more AR trips so yesterday I thought I'd escape the "hurricane" madness of Pensacola and cross one off our list. We decided to give Auntie Jenny a visit in her new apartment in Mobile (AU Pharmacy Program...GO JEN!) and let her show us around for a while. We drove around campus for a bit and grabbed lunch at Hero's, which is close to her apartment. It has a very "college" feel to it, and Annabelle felt very "cool" to be out with the ladies. After lunch we headed over to the Explorium to waste away the rest of the afternoon. I love the Explorium, because they change their main exhibits our pretty regularly, so no 2 times are ever the same. Plus, it actually attempts to help the kids LEARN something while they're playing....vs just running around like mad heathens.  Annabelle really liked the kid science area & the "matter" exhibit they have. Especially the soap bubble cloud maker. The poor worker re...

Fish Tale

After feeding and watering the dogs for 6 weeks, Annabelle earned herself a fish today! After much debate at Petsmart, she decided on a pink "dragon scaled" beta & a mermaid themed tank. She has named him Poseidon (we're a bit into Percy Jackson right now...for better or worse) though I personally pushed for King Tritian (I mean HELLO it's a mermaid tank!!). She could not wait to get home and get it all set up. Because we (I) underestimated how big the tank we selected is, we set it up in the girls room...as there is no where else to put it. He has lots, and lots of pink decorations...so hopefully he's not too much of a manly man fish.

Carolers

The girls Brownie troop went Christmas Caroling this weekend at University Pines Retirement Community. They were absolutely precious. Words cannot express the cuteness overload. Several local troops were there and they sang for about half an hour. The girls have been practicing their songs for weeks, and they did spectacularly. The adorable retiree's gave them rave reviews and they were stopped by several people asking them to come back next year.  Could they be any cuter? When we got home, we thought it only seemed fair to get the dogs in the spirit too..... Kingsley the Great Bayleigh the Princess
