Parade Time!!!







Jais and Dréa were in their first parade on Saturday. They were in the Herriman Parade with their dance company, Dance Explosion. They were very excited and Jarrod and I were nervous to see how they would handle being on the trailer with everyone and not being able to see us. Yeah, they couldn’t have cared less that we weren’t there. They were more towards the end of the parade so Jarrod, my dad and I collected a lot of candy. It was for the girls of course. Some great, wonderful and smart person thought up the idea of throwing Otter Pops. We each ate like five Otter Pops while we were waiting for the girls to come by. That was the perfect treat considering it was 9:30 in the morning and 95 degrees. Finally the girls came by and I ran out on the street to get their attention. They were so excited to see us. They were all smiles and waves. They did perfect. I was so proud!! And if you check out their hair I did it myself. Pretty dang good if you ask me. They are going to be in the Riverton Parade on Thursday. They are going to be pros by then. Everyone have a fun and safe 4th of July!!

What's in a name?

I think I might need to explain the reason “Just Another Disney Princess” has been chosen for the name of my blog. I was thinking of just using our last name, Mudrock, but it had already been used (probably for a construction company of some kind). So I did a name that involves a passion of mine. I am a Disneyland Freak. No I don’t dress in Disney stuff or decorate my house in it, but I LOVE Disneyland itself. I always say my dream job is to work at Disneyland. It could be anywhere from working at a ride to actually being a Disney princess. I don’t want to sweep up garbage though. Everyone at Disneyland gets to wear a costume! I went there for my high school graduation and my honeymoon. The great thing is Jarrod loves going just as much as I do. And hello, I have two girls that I can dress up like princesses!!! It truly is the Happiest Place on Earth. It is somewhere you can go and just have fun. There is not another place I would go and spend $5 on a churro. I love how it smells waiting in line and the “places” the rides take you. I also love the looks on ALL the kids’ faces (young and old). There are many places in this world to visit, and I still hope to, but Disneyland will always be my happy place. Hopefully that gives you a little idea of why I named my blog this. After all who doesn't want to ba a princess?

Clueless on what to do!!



Hi Everyone, it looks like I am now in the blog world. I didn't even know these existed until I started working at my dad's and uncle's company (Procast Marble) with my cousin Taisja. She is the one who created this whole blog so thank you Taisja. I am hesitant to post on it because lets just say spelling and grammar are not my strong points. But hey who cares. Well I hope to have more to write about later. Everyone take care and thanks for taking the time to visit.
