Exciting Weekend!

We had a really fun and exciting weekend! To start off, on Friday, David was promoted to Senior Vice President/Manager and Leader of the Tulsa Market. Wow! We are so proud of Daddy and all his hard work. He received this promotion less than two years after starting with UMB Bank in Tulsa. He is so deserving of this opportunity. We are confident in his ability to lead the Tulsa team! Yay for Daddy!

Saturday morning we went to Carmichael's Farm to pick out some pumpkins, visit with the animals and get into the fall spirit! 

The llamas thought Adriana was yummy! They nibbled on her shirt and she thought it was hilarious! 
Gabriella sporting her Halloween gear. Love the socks!
Sweet Adriana who will turn 3 in just a few days!
Picking out pumpkins is fun! 

Gourds are fun, too!

Our cute pumpkins!

Sunday afternoon we went to Disney on Ice "Dare to Dream." It featured the Disney stories Princess and the Frog, Cinderella and Tangled. The classic Disney characters Minnie, Mickey, Goofy, Donald Duck, etc. also entertained us in the intro, interludes and finale. As expected, Disney never disappoints. It was a terrific show featuring our favorite characters, songs and impressive ice skating! 

So excited for the show to start! Adriana in her new Rapunzel dress Nonna & G-Pa sent for her birthday and Gabby in her new Cinderella dress. 
Yummy popcorn!
The first story featured was of Tiana (Princess and the Frog). We love this movie. The setting is New Orleans in the 1920s and the music is great!
Princess Tiana and Prince Naveen. 
The second story was the classic Cinderella. The girls love this movie. It's probably one of their favorites. 
Cinderella and her Prince. 
The last story was Tangled. As a family, we really enjoy this movie. The music and characters are terrific. A great Disney movie. This story featured acrobatics. This is Rapunzel and Flynn Rider entertaining us from way above.
Adriana kept waving to the characters during this one. She loves this movie! 
"I Have A Dream."
Releasing the lantern. Really cool moment and a little girl from the audience was invited to help. 
We were all surprised when the Finale included ALL of the Disney Princesses and Princes - Rapunzel, Tiana, Cinderella, Ariel, Aurora, Snow White, Mulan, Jasmine and Belle. They were all dressed in white and accompanied by the class Disney characters Mickey and Minnie Mouse.
The Finale. Fabulous! 
What a wonderful and blessed weekend we had as a family! We are looking forward to festive and celebratory October. We'll keep you posted! ;)
