Cinderella Lola

Lola would like to thank her cousins Emma & Grace for giving her a HUGE bag of dress up clothes! The Cinderella dress is her favorite.

Below we have footage of Cinderella Lola getting her chores done so that she can attend the Royal Ball. You will hear her scold me for being a "bad step-mother" while encouraging me to "get going to Target".

Enjoy this classic footage!

Merry Christmas!

The staff at LOLApalooza would like to take this time to wish you all a very Merry Christmas!
Enjoy your holiday!

Christmas Eve News

SANTA CALLS LOLA!


As we were preparing a plate of cookies for Santa's arrival (and dog treats for Rudolph) Lola received a call from the big man himself! She was very happy with this phone call and after went to bed like a perfect angel. We haven't heard one peep out of her. Amazing! Maybe Santa should call her every night before bed.
Are you up for that Santa?



In other Christmas Eve news, Santa has arrived and everything is ready for Christmas morning!

this is it = this is awesome!

Speaking of MotherLoad of gifts Gigi also got Lola this fancy ballerina outfit AND the Michael Jackson This is It CD.

Lola has been wanting this CD ever since I saw the movie.

Gigi, maker of the dress

Lola's new favorite dress!

Gigi showed up last week with the MotherLoad of gifts when she whipped out this hand made Snow White dress. First of all let me say that Lola has worn this dress every day since she got it, aside from Saturday when she was in Illinois, and believe me, she asked about wearing it.
Christmas week with Gigi has come and gone as she leaves to head back to sunny Florida bright and early tomorrow morning.

Thank you Gigi for EVERYTHING you do for us! We love you and Merry Christmas!

We are currently in the process of taking a sweet photo of the children for this years holiday cards. For obvious reasons the above photo didn't make the cut.
Incase you can't pick them out the reasons for the cut are as follows:
Ian's lack of a smile.
Lola isn't looking at the camera.
How about that shoe string Ian calls a belt? A classy trick he learned from his Dad and totally not acceptable for the holiday card.
The below photo works out better and by acting like a bird just pooped on my head I was able to get Ian to crack a smile. It's actually a really cute photo of the children however I'm not using it.

Eye of the Beholder

Being a Twilight Zone fan I've always loved the episode titled Eye of the Beholder. It's about a beautiful girl who attempts plastic surgery to make her face "normal" and what we don't know until the end is that normal in the Twilight Zone are these crazy pig faced people. So in a tribute to the episode I love watching re-runs of I've decided to give Lola that "normal" look.
We ended up with a series of about 30 of these photos because each time I would take one and show Lola she would laugh so much and wanted to take another just so she could look at it. The mad circle continued for some time.
