Finally, Earings for Ashley

Ashley got her ears pierced.

You may think that this would be a great Mother-Daughter outing huh. Well Ashley had finally convinced her father that she should be able to get her ears pierced. Shortly after that he was going to Burlington to pick up some things and Ashley went along with him, asking him to take her to the Mall to look for new school clothes. While they were there she noticed a sign at Clair's offering "Free Ear Piercing". Robert decided she might as well, as long as she was there. So it turned out to be a Father-Daughter outing. I must admit I was kinda crushed about not being there. But Ashley was thrilled because now there are no photo's of the event. All in All she looks good with her new earings, and I did get to at least capture these photo's when she got home and showed them to me.

Star Wars Characters

Star Wars Weekend at Disney World

What a blast! Seeing all the Star wars characters was fabulous! R2D2, Darth Vader, Storm Troopers, C3PO, Princess Leia and the Ewoks's and Chewbacca. They were all worth standing in long long ago lines in a city far far away for. The children were in happy mode and Joseph was happy to get all those cool autographs. The parade and shows were great, and to top it off Joseph got to be a Jedi in Training and fight Darth Vader on stage in costume.
