Cousins, Hollywood, and a Baby Dedication

Guess who came to visit?

 

My cousin Lori and her daughter Addisen!

 

 

After meeting Mickey, we headed to:

 

If you ever get a chance to go to a wax museum with Lori and Addisen, I HIGHLY recommend it!  They are so funny!  Just check out these photos.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Addisen's expression here.

"Go ahead... make my day."

LOL - I crack up when I see this one.  Your hair is beautiful darling!

Sorry Aunt Linda, I tried to keep her out of trouble, but you know how she is!

=D

"When I saw you walking down the street
I said that's a kind of girl I'd like to meet
She's so pretty, Lord she's fine
I'm gonna make her mine all mine

Hey, hey hey baby!
I want to know if you'll be my girl"

Rocky was no match for Lori's right hook.

LORI!  Shame on you!

Uhm, not sure Mr. Obama appreciates your feet on his desk...

You tell 'em, Addisen!

Lori thought she'd try her jokes out on Robin Williams...

Such a cool shot!

My absolute favorite of the day!

 

These girls were so funny!

Even Brooklyn was cracking up at their poses.

 

Then we took some photos in front of the Hollywood sign.

After a long day of sight seeing, we took the rest of the evening to just visit. 

Emma became Addisen's shadow.  Totally her new BFF.

Brooklyn was also enjoying all the attention from Addisen!

♥♥♥

Lots of smiles.

Saturday morning, we took our guests out to the airport for breakfast.

 

Addisen was stirring her hot chocolate with a spoon, so of course Emma had to stir her chocolate milk with a spoon. It was so cute to see Emma mimic Addisen.

Then they headed outside to find dandelions.

They found 101.  Seriously, everything Addisen did, Emma was right there beside her.

SO cute!

Then to round out their visit, we headed to church for Brooklyn's baby dedication.

 

 

We did this for Emma after she was born. 

 

And I love the fact that both the girls wore the same dress.

My dear friend Rebecca crocheted this little gown.  It is absolutely beautiful.

 

I'm so grateful for Lori and Addisen for coming to church with us.  It was so awesome to have family there as well.  Thank you ladies!

 

My sweet friend Lea was also able to join us for this very special night.

We tried to get a family photo and as you can tell... someone was getting pretty tired.

This was the best one I had on my camera. 

bawhahhahah

 

After church we celebrated by going out to eat, seeing some Christmas lights, then just relaxing at home. 

Brooklyn was able to get some good snuggle time with Lori before I had to take them back to the airport early this morning.

The first thing Emma said this morning when she woke up, "Where'd Addisen go?"

 

She keeps saying she is "very sad" today.  

Me too, Emma, me too.

 

 

 

We had an AWESOME time with you gals.

 

PLEASE come back soon!
