Disney '15, Donuts with Dad, 3K Easter Party

We made our second trip to Disney World the first week of March. We went to Magic Kingdom for 2 days and had 1 day at Animal Kingdom.  It was so much fun and a lot more doable with Salem no longer napping.  The kids are already asking when we can go back :).
Avery's school had a Donuts with Dad party.  Avery talked about it for weeks and was so excited to have her daddy there.  She even made him a fancy tie to wear.
The last day of the month, the 3K class had an easter egg hunt and party.  I had to work that day, but Tim was able go and hear our boy sing songs and hunt for candy eggs.  He had the best time with his little buddies.

Valentine's and Dance Makers

Our Valentine's weekend was spent heading to Avery's dance competition and convention.  The whole family went and Tim's parents came to see some of Avery's dances.  It was a fun and packed weekend. The girls were the overall high scorers for their age groups in both tap and jazz.  They did so great at their first competition.  I was able to go see Shaunna for her birthday.  It was wonderful spending time with her and getting some child free time too!  Here are the dance pics and some other fun February events.
