Disney on Ice and Annie!

Here is one of my twins. Her name is Elisa--BUT since she was a little girl she's been called Annie. She watched that movie so many times when she was little it broke. I couldnt go a day without playing that movie. She also has always had a fascination with Band-aids. It was so obsessive we actually began buying her bandaids for gifts and one year we bought her this HUGE First Aid kit. She went thru it all--and loved it. We refilled it many times. I'm tellin ya, if you have a box of band aids in your home even to this day--she will go thru em like nothing. She just graduated and is an RN and recently began working. I was checking out Annies and came across this Annie doll on Ebay--and couldnt pass it up. Its called First Aid Annie...and she comes with a little purse of ----BAND Aids!!! How perfect was that? I have never purchased anything on Ebay--and when I learned I had to bid--I was kinda scared. I knew I wanted this doll for her--but I also knew I wasnt going to pay something that insane. I picked out what i knew was my highest bid and placed it. And prayed....and I got it. Annie arrived today--and funny thing--Annie was here doing the wash when the package came and had no idea it was for her. When I got home from work I called her and told her she needed to come back because something came for her today and she needed to check it out! Sooo here is our Annie--with her Annie!


And....this is our once a year tradition we do with our granddaughers. Today is it! Disney on Ice...we've been doing this for about 4 years now. We go on opening night. We take them out to a Buffet dinner and then head to the show. Its a night of "whatever you want, you get". We spend a ridiculous amount of money--eat a ridiculous amount of crap,,but love it! This year we are bringing Ms. Ellie the 2 yr old...I'm not sure how I feel about it--but Baldy wants to try it. He will be the one to walk out with her if she gets that bad. I LOVE ice shows--and so do the girls. I'll be sure to take pictures. I know I'll be coming home--tired,,,broke but happy!
