It is a nice little perk to have a sister who works at Disneyland cause sometimes thanks to her (and her friends), we get to have a Disney day! We really don’t ride many rides, cause frankly lines are way too long and the thing that my girls really love is the parade! Their faces light up, their voices get loud, and it comes alive for them. They loved it so much that we watched both parades of the day. The best part of the parade is seeing Jiminy Cricket. He is really good friends with my baby sister.

Besides having fun at the park, eating churros, my fave part was hanging out with my siblings (and Ashley). We are all becoming better friends now that we are getting older. It is nice. When my brother and I were younger (he is next in line after me), we didn’t get along. We literally would hit and kick each other and were always at each other’s throats. Thankfully, ever since our last big fight shortly after True was born (it was a really bad fight!), we became friends. Us sisters are pretty protective of our brother and it will definitely be a bit tough for the girl who wants our brother’s heart to win the heart of us three sisters. Us sisters mean business. For real. Don’t mess with his heart girls!

It was definitely a good day, but the only thing that would have made it better was having Ben there with us. It is just never the same without him!

True put together her outfit this week. Actually, she put it together on Sunday in preparation for school on Tuesday. Her pickings were all from Misha Lulu, who is having a sale over at Mini Social right now (see here). The only items that weren’t from Misha were her boots, socks and headband, which were from H&M. I think this week she was channeling her inner Minnie Mouse, probably cause she was inspired from our surprise visit to Disneyland last Friday. My girls all love that mouse so much!!!

Things this week have been crazy cause Soul was sick, then Ben was out for a few days, then I had my bout with not feeling well. I am hoping that everyone is on the mend here on out and that we are able to enjoy some time just chilling together. We could use some free time over here! It seems there is always someone sick, something to do, or some event to plan. Anyone else feel that way too? Or maybe it is just that thing called life. Yeah. Probably. It’s just life!

Things are crazy busy this week and won’t lighten up until the weekend. Posting will probably be light, but when I come back, I am sure I will have lots to recap on. The biggest news of late is that Glow can roll over! Yippee for my littlest baby!!!

Until then, stay cool friends cause my Bravey sure is!

Did you know Lucky Brand had kid clothes? I didn’t. I was surprised and and they also have some really cute things, like this pretty skirt or this cool shirt! My girls love skirts! Come to think of it, I don’t think I had my first pair of jeans until I was in middle school. My mom made me a skirt/dress girl growing up and I think for the most part that is how my girls operate too. Though they do love leggings.

True knows the routine for her go-to school day real well. We get all the younger three girls in the car and buckled in, then True and I go in the front yard to take a couple pictures, then we rush back in the car and take off. I think she kinda likes getting her picture taken, but only if it is me behind the camera.

Funny story… we went to pick up True from school and I see her teeny self sitting on the curb snacking on carrots when I notice she is wearing one of her Happy New Year crowns. The teacher walks her to the car and greets me and tells me how cute True looked today and quietly whispers that she wore the crown all day long. Hmm… she didn’t leave the house with the crown on, as you can see by the picture taken before school, so this little girl snuck the crown in her backpack and put it on at school. Hilarious! For a shy little girl, she was kinda bold in her fashion choice that day. At least it was a crown and not a mini skirt, right?!! Oh boy! For this little girl of mine, fashion really has no bounds. You should see the funny things they put on for dress-up!

Christmas is way over, but I loved our Christmas card too much not to share. Actually, I am horrible at planning Christmas cards and never get around to it until it is much too late, so when True came to me and showed me her drawing, I said, “That’s it! That’s our card!”

I gave it to Ben, he scanned it, digitalized it, added a greeting, and we got ourselves a card! It was perfect! Too bad, I never really sent any out, but just handed it out to those friends and family that we did see, so consider this my late Christmas card to everyone who reads this blog!

And just so you could see the original, here it is…

Kid art is just the absolute best! I have one more Christmas-related post coming, which is the handmade gifts Ben and I made each other. I am in love with what Ben made me and I can’t wait to share it!

Are you good at planning Christmas cards?
