Ruthie goes to Summerville/Disney on Ice

Last weekend Ruthie got to have a special weekend all by herself with Gigi and Papa in Summerville. She was SO excited about her trip! She got to visit some of Gigi and Papa's friends, went on a bird scavenger hunt in downtown Summerville, got a shark's tooth (she was very excited to show her sisters!), went to the children's museum, and went to a park.

It is always so strange around our house when one of the kids isn't there. We all missed Ruthie. Ellie asked to facetime with her on Saturday afternoon, all the kids asked about her multiple times a day, and Ruthie got some REALLY big hugs when we picked her up Sunday!

For Christmas my parents gave us tickets to Disney on Ice. We have already seen the Frozen show and we knew we wanted to do a show that wasn't all princesses so I've been watching the Disney on Ice schedule to find a show close to us that met our requirements. Last week I realized there was one in Charleston on Sunday and it was one we wanted to see. It worked out really well because Sunday was when Paul's parents were planning to bring Ruthie home so instead we met them in North Charleston for lunch and then they came to Disney on Ice with us! We saw The Wonderful World of Disney on Ice show and it was really good! Among other things it had lots of princesses, Nemo, Buzz, and best of all it had Lion King (JP's current obsession). All of us had a great time!

I was thrilled with how great our seats were! When I selected them online they definitely didn't look that close!
