Disney on Ice

The other night Noah and I went on a little date to Disney on Ice! It has been my dream for the longest time to go.. 2 of my favorite things Disney and Ice skating!  I was so excited to take Noah, He couldn't wait to put on his Mickey shirt and ears. I wasn't sure how well he would last in a two hour show but he was glued... Seriously adorable watching him sing, dance, and clap along to his favorite Disney Songs. The opening act was "The Lion King" followed by "The Little Mermaid", "Lilo and Stitch", and "Peter Pan" and Narrated by the Original Disney crew Mickey, Minnie, Donald, and Goofy!

He loved it and has been asking every day to go back to Disney on Ice... We had such a great time! It's always great just having him to myself!!

 Noah's cute little friend "Kesley" came with us too they are petrolthed just like Simba and Nala... (according to Kelsey's Mom Chay and and I.) 

 Noah was too busy watching to smile for the camera..

Peter Pan was my favorite..... Noah actually hasn't seen Peter Pan yet, but knew what it was from our trip to Disneyland and the Peter Pan ride there. It is definately going to be our next Disney DVD purchase.

 

Here is a cute little $15.00 "Flounder" cotton candy!!

I did cave and buy Noah the $12.00 Stitch mug with shaved ice, and he didn't even like it... But that comes from my kid who I asked him if he wanted to get Sour Patch kids on our drive there and he said No Mommy lets just bring Apples.... 

Night out in Chicago Part 3

My last (tear) and final Chicago post....

Getting dolled up and going out with girlfriends is so much fun. 

Kristen K and I are both hairstylists and Kristen K also specializes in make-up. So we had a whole 

Glam squad going on in the hotel room... We listened to music and sipped on red bulls to get us revved up for the night out! I brought my big giant DLSR on the occasion to snap some fun pics.

 Aren't my friends the absolute cutest?

The clouds were so low that night.. It was fun snapping some of these pictures!! 

 Smiles and seriousness 

I made them put on my red lips.....

Good bye Chi-Town and girls trip!!

We need to make this an annual event! 

Chicago Part 2

Like I said Chicago was only a 24 hour trip. It really was awesome, but even more awesome was that I got to see my girlfriends... During the day we were total tourists... Rode to the top of the John Hancock Building on the worlds fastest elevator, that pretty much made the whole trip!
We did a little shopping on Michigan Ave and ate some deep dish delish pizza!

The two cuties on the far left and far right rode the train in from their town in Southern Illinois, On the left is Courtney Kristen with a K's little sis and her roomie! So fun that they were able to come up too!

a little deep dish love 

Don't worry there is still one more post left of our night on the town!!

and come back tomorrow I am doing a Kerastase hair product giveaway!

I just got back from my 24 hour girls trip! It was so nice to see my friends,  I have missed them. Not to mention I haven't been on a trip (alone) that wasn't work related for about 5 years! It was time and I think I need to do it again really soon!

It was Kristen with a "K's" 21 birthday! I call her Kristen with a K because we have another Kristen as well... She is with an "M"

However I realized I am getting way too old to stay up until 3 or 4 am, drive 3 hours back to Michigan and then go to work.. whew I am still paying for it!  

I haven't uploaded my pictures of my camera yet, so I am giving a little teaser post via iphone pictures!
