Thank you for sharing Emily's story she sounds like an amazing young lady. I love Figament he always reminds me of my youngest brother he loved Figament when he was little and had a plush figament from our first disney visit. He is a must see for me every time we visit

Thank you! yay for Figment!

I agree with the sharpie clickables those have been the best things we found for autographs

Saying extra prayers for Miss Emily today. I hope she can stay out the hospital and that it is an easy virus for her

Thanks. She's still sick, hopefully it won't last too long. I'll look for those pens.

On Friday, we received two more Big Gives! What crazy get-up will Brenna be wearing today??

First we opened this package from Jen B. (Dis name: scouthawkk)

Daddy pulled out a pile of . . .

Custom bibs for Em!!! (Carter and brenna just might share if we eat anything messy!

She sent us 6 bibs and she had made them just a perfect size for Em since she is the not regular size of a baby who would still need a bib! I love all the fabrics you chose!!

Here's one unfolded

Thank you so much Jen! They'll come in so handy, in fact I already used one the other night!!

Then we opened this box from Marti, Todd, Carolyn, Megan, and Patrick (mydisneykids)!

There was a personalized busy bag for each kid filled with fun goodies!!!

Yes, Brenna is wearing a white "princess" dress (just a pretty dress from my mom's church thrift store), complete with bridal veil and bouquet! That did not come in the box, she was already sporting that!!!

And inside

and so much more I did not get a picture of: disney markers and crayons, travel games, magnet books, bendaroos, and sticker books! And for Emily, a monkey chime toy, a soft colorful book, teething keys, and a Tigger lovie!!!!

And this lovely picture and note (on the back) from Miss Megan! We will definitely tell Tigger you said "hi!"

Thank you Marti and family!!! The kids just loved everything!

It is so fun to watch your family open and enjoy the big give packages. The pictures are great! I love that your daughter Brenna is dressed up...my daughter Chelsea does not wear normal clothes at home. It is all dress up all the time and she also has a "Marry" dress and veil as she likes to call it. She is always planning her wedding to marry her brother.

I hope sweet Emily is feeling better!

This is the link to the video of Emily trying on her newest Big Give dress!! I have figured out how to turn it right side up, but still can't embed it so the video shows and not just the link.

This is from a Big Give from Anita but I didn't post all the other pics yet. Thank you so much Anita, I just had to try to post this first!


Emily loves her Minnie Mouse Dress!


If anyone has any tips on how to get the video to post directly I'd appreciate it!!

Emily is actually feeling better! She got over that stomach so much faster than I expected! Our first pixie dust I guess (besdies the Big Give of course!). Yeah, Brenna wants to marry her brothers as well.

So CUTE!!!!! She has the cutest giggle!!! love hearing the other "action" happening in the background too!!!! lol....

I didn't have time to tell them to be quiet, I knew I'd miss the smiles!

Mostly you hear Drew in the background, but all of the other 3 were back there playing with Little People.

Aww, no thank you! Both of the girls just loved the dresses and the boys loved their Mickey shirts. I have lots more pics to share soon of all of them opening the box and "modeling". Getting the video to post right took up most of my computer time today!!! I finally got it to post upright now so you don't have to crane your neck to watch it.

I believe it was Tuesday that we received a box from Anita (Granna4679) - sorry it took so long for the pics!

Thank you for the lovely note -

We saw a shirt for Carter first,

He was trying to hold it up

And a matching one for Drew!

Then we saw Minnie Mouse dresses for the girls!!! (we knew the one with the button hole was for Em!)

Emily loved it right away!

But we had to try them on.

Here is Emily with Ann!

Then my good camera's battery died, so I had to switch cameras!

Brenna also loved her dress and did not want to take it off!!

Carter

Drew

And close-up of one dress and the shirts!

I am so happy that the kids love them. The smiles have made my day! Thanks for posting the pictures. They all look so adorable. Love Drew's pose where he has the shirt on. I can't wait to see the pictures of all of them together @ Disneyworld. You are going to have such a special trip!
