Sunshine in a Plaid Hat

She was not happy when I bought this hat. She even glared at me...and I swear I heard someone whisper something about such a pretty girl to have such a scary stink-eye.

Yeah...she really gave it to me, but I bought it anyway. And not surprisingly she has refused to don it all summer. My visions of a "Michael Jackson Tribute" photo shoot fell by the wayside. C'est la vie, you know??

So you can imagine my hand clapping glee when she came downstairs wearing "the hat" the other afternoon and asked me to take some pictures. Maybe she knew her Mama needed a pick me up...or maybe she just realized how incredibly cool that hat really is...but I didn't wait to find out. I just grabbed the camera and started shooting!

Hi Kate. We are leaving at midnight tonight to drive to Orlando! I got your comment and we will be at Disney the same time as you guys! We aren't coming home until Sept 16. I really hope we run into each other. That would be so great! Have a wonderful trip! This is our first time to go to Disney so I am really looking forward to seeing Mallory's face light up when she sees all of her favorite princesses.
Have a safe trip and hope to see ya there.
