First Annual Father-Daughter Date @ FBCWoodway

Our church held it's First Annual Father-Daughter Date Night on 2/24/12.  It was such a precious event to hold and we look forward to it becoming an annual event!  Here are a few pictures of them getting ready to go:

I think Alyssa was checking to make sure her bear's bowtie was on straight ;o)


The handsome couple!




Of course, Andrew wanted a few pictures taken with them in his new Spiderman shirt and new Bumblebee Transformer toy:



In her new faux fur trimmed cloak/coat :)



Mommy's weren't allowed to the event, so Andrew & I had our own date to Outback Steakhouse.  Here are pictures that David took.  Below is a picture of the horsedrawn carriage they were waiting on:



She is EXCITED about the horsey!!!



It was a bit chilly!!






Alyssa playing around on the steps at church:



Below are professional pictures from the event:


David & Alyssa had a great time hanging out and even making a sweet jewelry box together.  What a great event and what wonderful memories! :)

2-23-12: The Party Continues!

So the Party Continues!  Thursday morning, everyone woke up and got moving around.  I headed to work and Melinda took Ava, Kaitlyn & Andrew to the zoo and museum.  Alyssa headed to daycare as 4 kids would have been a bit much and exceeded Melinda's carseat limit! :)  Here the girls were playing before Alyssa headed to her class...

Later that evening, we all headed over to Chuck E Cheese for a whirlwind of a birthday party.   Andrew had been asking for a birthday party there for almost a year and much to my chagrin, I gave in to our birthday boys wishes! :)  There were about 20 friends + a few siblings that came.  It was BUSY but soooo much fun!!!

Andrew, Jacob, Selah, Kaitlyn, Avery and a few other friends...



I tried to snap a picture of Miriam and Andrew together.  Miriam is Andrew's girlfriend from daycare but she moved to another school and now they are going through the typical 5 year old boy/girl stage :)

He told me he was "tucking his ears in" ... LOL! :)

Toward the end, Andrew & I got into the Ticket Blaster together.  It was so much fun and we racked up on lots of tickets!! What a crazy, fun & busy night!
