easter bunny {mia’s first trip}

this year, mollie was so excited to visit the easter bunny. she was all set to go up & sit with him & get her picture taken. she sat down next to the easter bunny on the bench & then while I was trying to hand mia to him, the photographer tried to scoot mollie closer & that was it she then wanted nothing to do with sitting back up with the easter bunny! so we got mia’s picture with the easter bunny & then mollie sat with the easter bunny with nick!

Spring Break Vacation {Disney World & Georgia}

This year for spring break we had a full packed week of fun! First, we headed to disney world with the ramos’.  we haven't had a ramos/grieme family vacation in a long time!!  we had a great time as you can see from the pictures!!

first stop was magic kingdom! we got up to disney late because I got the lovely stomach virus that nick had the weekend before & mine just wouldn’t go away! so before we left for disney we made a quick stop by mdnow for some lovely medicine with some scary side effects! then we were off to disney! we checked into our hotel & I am pretty sure that we could just take mollie to the hotel & she would be happy as can be!

{dance party with the characters! mollie went right up to stitch & held hands with him & danced with him! totally not like her, recently she was afraid of the characters…. well not this trip!}

{day two- we went to epcot!}

we started with breakfast at the hotel & then headed to epcot on the monorail {“train”} mollie loved riding on the train, especially when she got to stand up while it was moving & hold on to the pole! such a funny girl.

after a day at epcot we went back to the hotel, showered & met the ramos’ at kobe for habachi, which will probably be our last visit to habachi for a long time because mollie was scared to death of the fire! after habachi, we went down to downtown disney for a bit.

mollie told us “I wanna go see them” when she saw the characters, so not like her lately she doesn’t want anything to do with them. she even gave handy manny her new piglet that she just got! ha!
