Finally an update

We recently had our Fall family pictures taken by our new fabulous photographer!  It was a cool, crisp day and we had so much fun playing in the leaves.  We brought some blue balloons to represent our sweet baby boy!! 

Myrtle Beach part 1

So I may have taken over 700 pictures while we were on vacation! Yikes!  I can't help it.  Here are a few of the first few days. More to come!

Reggae Festival

The Vest's joined us for some fun at the New Town Reggae Festival!  The girls had so much fun dancing and running around! 

Swinging!

4 generations

We got together this evening for an early Mother's Day dinner.  We always need to take the opportunity to get the four generations together for a picture.

Picture perfect

We entered the girls into their first little contest!  They were in a Spring Model search through our photographer.  Though they didn't win this time, we think they are the prettiest girls on the planet!!

Easter Fun

 We had a great Easter!  Lily has been begging for an princess bike forever.  She was trying to earn one for going to bed on  her own, but the sticker chart with 3 stickers out of 5 has been on the fridge for months-it wasn't happening anytime soon.  So the Easter bunny was very generous and got her the bike she loved!  Ella is obsessed with Mr. Potato head right now and the girls have been fighting over the one that we had so she got a new Potato head and loves it!! She walks around the house saying "tato" "tato." 

Just another Wednesday night

We got to spend some great time with the Vest girls the other night and of course I had to take 100 pictures.  Here are a few! Not sure if it's getting easier or harder to get all four looking at the camera! Can't believe Elizabeth is almost 1 year old.

Yesterday was my Grandma's 88th birthday! She is the only grandparent that either Bryan or I have left so it's so wonderful to have her 88th birthday to celebrate.  We took 2 ferries (first time for girls and Austin and Dylan) to Grafton and went to Pere Marquette Lodge for dinner. It was a gorgeous night and after dinner the kids had a blast playing outside.  The cousins always have so much fun together.

Book Worms

I have been cleaning/purging/selling and was getting my books from grad school in a pile to sell.  The girls decided to sit in their reading corner and do a little studying. Not sure if either girl realized their books were upside down!

My Pot of Gold

There is supposed to be a a pot of gold at the end of every rainbow. I feel like I always have the luck of the Irish and my Pot O' Gold when I look at my two beautiful little girls!
