Howdy cow girl!!  Friday night we went to a pumpkin fest and Ellee was saying "yee-haw" the whole night!!

                         Faith was an angel, so fitting  ;)                                                                     (this is actually my costume from when I was a young girl, my grandma made it for me)

We surprised our girls with a night on the town, after dinner we let them in on the plans for the evening.  Good thing Mom asked them what they would wear if they ever got to meet a princess.  Both girls were jumping with joy and couldn't wait to see the show!! 

Looking forward to a fun night

Our little princesses chose their outfits

Let the show begin

Faith couldn't contain her excitement.  She was jumping up and down when Mickey and friends came out.
