Princess Leia Costume

After a lifetime of waiting for a Star Wars land to be created my husband was delighted to fulfill his childhood fantasy and visit the Galaxy's Edge at Disneyland.

Did you know my darling daughter is obsessed with Mary Poppins?

Halloween 2017

We began discussing Carolyn's Halloween costume right after last year, but didn't finally decide what to do until after Ben's big flying adventure. Carolyn has become enthralled with airplanes; pointing to them in the sky, making motor noises and playing with her Little People plane in the house.
