What did you do this weekend?? 
Happy Monday!!

What we have been up to!

Its been along time since i have updated this blog. We have been very busy. This is an Iphone picture dump!

Little Miss has started dance class again. she did it last year and loved it so we are doing it again this year!

She seriously has the BEST teacher!

She went with her mamma to vote and was SOO good they gave her a sticker!

We have family dinner EVERY single Sunday. We love this time with our family and sweat pants are required :)

This past weekend we spent the hole day on Saturday getting Christmas shopping done! We traveled to Springfield which is just about an hour and a half away and we made a pretty big dent in it!

For being so good little miss got to ride the horsies!

We then went to a store that i have NEVER been to! its called Scheels. it just recently opened in Springfield and it was soo cool they had a fish tank!

They also have a Ferris wheel in the middle of the store!

I am TERRIFIED of these things. however little miss was adamant that she wanted to ride it. I absolutely HATE heights BUT since it was inside i decided to give it a try. i learned that i still hate them but i also learned that Bella REALLY likes Ferris wheels. UGHH OH!!

In other news we leave for cancun in 8 DAYS!!! I am soo excited! We leave the day after thanksgiving. I work next week Monday, Tuesday and then i am off until December 3rd! I am so excited. I know that these next 8 days are going to fly by. Our family will start to arrive for the Thanksgiving holiday this Sunday and then again on Tuesday and we cant wait to see them!!

We had to make little miss a chain to count down how many days are until we go to the BEACH. She kept waking up EVERY single day in tears because it wasn't time yet!

I am sooo excited for our vacation. We went to Cancun last year and stayed at the same resort we are staying at this year. i love this resort they are SOO kid friendly it is at the end of the strip so more family orientated and not crazy party place. I am excited for a good ole relaxing time. that brings me to my next point i need a new book to read any one have any good suggestions?
