Ballerina Bedtime

Last night as we were getting ready for bedtime, Trinity decided that being she had her ballerina PJ's on she also needed to put on her ballerina tutu! She was so funny. She was dancing, spinning, jumping, and practicing her ballet positions. She is my "tiny dancer!"

Nothing like being a ballerina before bedtime!

Is this what you mean by arms up?

Dancing is so fun!

First position!

Is this better?

Like this?

What position is this mom?

Last weekend Clint and I had the time of our lives...in New York City! We said good-bye to our little munchkin on Friday night, she spent the weekend with Mimi & Papa, and we were off! We did it all;Times Square, Ground Zero, City Tour, Broadway, Cheesecake, Pizza, Rockefeller, the list goes on and on. Although the weather was about 30 degrees below normal for this time of year (we were a wee bit cold!), it didn't stop us. We had an amazing time. I'll let our pics tell our story.

Our first morning out...taking in Times Square!

Oh the celebrities we saw!



Lady Liberty....really thought she was much bigger!

Our first meal...of course some good NY pizza!!

Clint remembers this bull from many movies...I don't....but I took a pic with it's hiney anyway!

Awwe....:-)

I saw this on a bus...shout out to mom and sistas! We heart TJ!

Our first night on the pier after a full day of walking and touring through the cold all day.

Um...M&M store....a pregnant girl's dream! haha

Our first night we walked down to Rockefeller Plaza. It was beiautiful! They had the ice skating rink up and everything....it was awesome!

So we ventured out to the Statue of Liberty on the second day. Little did we know it would be rainy and freezing! It really was cold, I am not just being dramatic...promise!

Quick pic before we ran back to the ferry to get warm!

Yum! Cheesecake! I was so excited!

Although our hotel was great..it was a little "boutique-ish" place right in the middle of everything really. However, we didn't quite get the drop dead view of the city that we had hoped....we laughed and chalked it up as a memory! :-)

Dinner after our broadway debut. We saw Shrek and surprisingly...it was magnificant! We had a wonderful night!

Our last day there, the sun finally came out! Go figure. :-) We took it easy strolled through Central Park and tried to take the last sites of the city in.

How many movies have you seen this in??

Saying good-bye to NYC in front of our cute little hotel.

Overall....we had the time of our lives! I have to admit, it would haven't been so great if I didn't have such a great husband! It was so great to have a weekend away together and reflect on all of the blessings that we have. And he even let me shop a little! Kudos to Clint! haha. We have been married over 8 years now and I can honestly say each year has gotten better and better. He is the best friend, husband and daddy ever! I am not sure how I got so lucky...but I will take it!

My Pun'kin with the pumpkins!

On Sunday we took Trinity to her first pumpkin patch!! But of course we had to go in style!!...as a pumpkin (thanks Grandma Debbie!)! It was her cousin Natalie's Birthday party and we had a blast! We played in the hay, went through a corn maze, ate kettle korn, and found lots and lots of pumpkins! Oh how I love this time of year!

Getting in "uniform" to head to the pumpkin patch!
Look mom...I found a corn husk!

Can you see me?

adorable!

Taking a break (a very short one as we all know that child doesn't really know what "breaks" are!) with Daddy!

The one and only picture where she smiled for the camera. She said "cheese" quite a bit but gave you a 1/2 second window to click the pic! Little miss indepdendent! This is my favorite pic!

Baby Pumpkins....

Mmmm....Kettle Korn!

Getting lost in the corn maze with Momma & Mimi!

Take me out to the ball game!

Over labor day weekend, we took Trinity to her first football game. However, not just any football game. We went to watch Colleyville Heritage (the high school I taught at) play at the brand new Cowboys stadium! It was pretty awesome. The place is stinkin' amazing! I mean why would we take her to just a little ol' football game at the school stadium right? haha! However, we did have to go in style. You'll have to scroll down the pics to find out how stylish she truly is!

I know I am biased, but she is freakin adorable. She has her "Future Pantera" out fit out. Panteras is the dance team at Colleyville Heritage. Nothing like starting early?!!
Cowboys stadium, here I come!

Mom! This place is SO cool!

Okay, I have had enough...the newness has worn off.

Go Panthers!

Clint had to take a picture of the jumbo-tran....it's gi-normous!

Playing with momma, waiting for the Panteras to perform at halftime!
Watching the Panteras, realizing I have missed my nap time.

What a day! And another win for the Colleyville Heritage Panthers!

So it's been a while....

Okay, so a bit of time has past since I last blogged...ya know...just like 3 or 4 months! Quite a bit has happened in the Wright family since then...so where do I begin?

In August, I turned the bigt 3-0! We had a big "sha-bang" at our house. My mom came down and surprised me for the party...literally surprised me( I almost wet my pants and had a heart attack when she jumped out of the trunk of amy's car!). We food, family, friends, dancing, fun...and of course margaritas! It was a great time!

Trinity also got to take her first trip out to Granni's house! She lives in east Texas, pretty much in the woods. She had a great time exploring and running around! And she discovered that her "Gi Gi" likes hat's as much as she does!

Prancing around in one of GiGi's hats and thinking she is so darn cute! She is right!
Sitting on the porch...taking in the view (one of the few moments she stood still!)

stay tuned...more to come....for real this time. :-)
