Trick or Treat!!

Happy Halloween Everyone!!

This year was busy but fun!! We had two birthday parties to go to and then got home just in time to Trick or Treat. The parties were alot of fun and the girls made it through the day like troopers, no nap and all. I am sure all the sugar from the cakes helped : )

The girls had a blast trick or treating this year! They weren't skiddish at all going up to all the houses and chanted "Trick or Treat" all the way from the sidewalk up to each house each time. It was super cute!!!

3.20.09 ~ Trip to the Beach

It's kinda nice to head to the beach when it's still a bit chilly out. It is totally different than being there in the summertime! There is hardly anyone there, no long lines for anything and really peaceful. The girls still got to play in the sand, long sleeves and pants of course, and we hit up Chris' favorite Pizza spot too! All in all a really nice weekend!

Girls 3rd Birthday Bash!!

We had Callie & Sienna's birthday party today and they had a blast!! It was a catered event with all the extras, i.e. pizza and cake : ) The girls have been looking forward to this for about two weeks now, and the day has finally arrived! They were asking all day if it was time for their party yet. Finally after their nap I told them that we were going to get ready for their party now and they started singing, "It's party time, It's party time". It was really funny. The Abby Cadabby pinata was pretty good, although Sienna went second and picked the right string so it didn't last very long, but I think everyone liked the prizes inside. Then it was off to play and I think that was their favorite time! The ball pit seemed the most popular! Thanks to everyone that made it out to celebrate with us!! It was a great night!!

January 27th ~ More Snow!!

January 27, 2009 ~

Can I just say how much I am LOVING this snow!!! I really miss the days when we were younger that we would get lots of snow every couple of years. We would miss a bunch of days of school and have a blast outside sledding and building snow igloos until our fingers were about to fall off or it was too dark out to see. Ahhhh, those were the good old days. Now it seems that we hardly get any kind of snow that ever amounts to anything, oh well I am going to enjoy all the little bits we are getting now and keep hoping for that BIG one again :) Here are a couple of more snow pics of the girls. Now we have promoted them from trash can bringer-inner to driveway shoveler ...

January 19th ~ Snow!!!!!!

January 19, 2009 ~

Yeah!! We got our first measurable snow of the year today and I was so excited!! The girls were excited too, so I bundled them up and we headed out for a little bit to play in the snow.










The girls are such great helpers now, I am sure that won't last too long :) so we are enjoying it while it's here. They actually fight over who can help empty the dishwasher, do the laundry with Mommy and bring in the trash can. Who could have guessed those chores were so exciting :) Here is Callie helping out ...
