Coming Out Of Her Shell....

 Papa Karl broke is ankle so we have been visiting quite a bit. Mallory is taking advantage of free scooter rides...

 She sure does make their day....

 Friday was Mommy & Mallory date night....this little fish and I first went out to eat to Burger Board.

 That would be the face of girl who gobbled down a WHOLE CHEESEBURGER!!!

 Then it was off to our first play....Cinderella!

 She was pretty excited....

 Sneaking in a kiss...

 She was so cute....I think I confused her when I said we were going to see Cinderella as she replied...."We're going to Disney?"

 And to our surprise....her friend Maci was there...they of course sat by each other and had the best of time. Their cute little faces were priceless.

 The play was very small audience but it was perfect. They involved the audience especially the children. They would have parts that some of the kids got to participate on stage and the cast would come down into the audience. Very interactive and very appropriate for children. Mallory loved it. I loved watching her as she tends to be on the shy time more times than not. She marched right up there and participated with no reserve. I loved watching her come out of her shell in front of others.

 She even went around and wanted her picture taken with some of the characters.

 Afterwards, her and Maci took their turn on stage and pretended to be acting out the scenes they just watched. It was sooo cute!

 They had a "wedding reception" for Cinderella and Prince Charming so Mallory of course enjoyed a cupcake. I hope this is a tradition that Mallory and I can continue with.

 Saturday, Mallory got to spend the day with Aunt Lori and her family as mommy went to a class reunion meeting. She of course got super spoiled!! She loved it. Thanks Aunt Lori.

 

 Then Sunday was Vacation Bible School. They do ours in segments throughout the year instead of one long week. Mallory attended for the first time a couple months back and did good but today she did GREAT!

 I was sooo proud of her. She was not shy at all and did the actions (with her own twist of course) and danced.

 They taught them some sign language to go along with the verse and she did some of it...

 Took all I had to hold back the tears.....

Then this happens....I let her play with my scarf and she played with this for over an hour....who knew that a scarf could be so entertaining...

Guess it's better than underwear on your head.....
