Circus 2012


It was another great show!  The kiddos are finally old enough to sit and enjoy watching the wild acts!  Our favorite part is still the pre-show when we are able to get close to the animals and see them do their tricks.  It was so neat to be an arms length away from the huge elephants.  Although I don't have pictures Auntie Tricia and Uncle Kyle were with us for the show too!  They are still hoping Ryann will decide to join us very soon!  The Posener's also were able to come with us and it was lots of fun to see the girls so giddie! A huge thanks to my parents for the suite tickets, souvenirs, food, and fun!  We love this tradition and the babes were sure glad to see you!   The cousins had fun too!  Scottie is a little wild child and Truss was as mesmerized as Dylan!  We can't wait till next year!

I love you super much!


 Tonight as I put Dylan to bed those are the words he said to me as he hugged my neck. Granted he was super tired as he did not nap today but it sure was the perfect end to the day! We had a great week around here, running errands, spring cleaning, and playing outside when the sun was shining!  Friday we spent over three hours outside.  The pollen was getting to me but it was worth it for sure!  We took tons of walks, painted the sidewalk, had snacks in the sun, and ran around a lot!  I guess Spring Fever is starting to get me even though I am still a bit sad that Winter never quite came!  



 Avery found a snail, and rescued it :)





Oh, how could I forget to tell you about our bubble fun!  They can both do it now!

Happy Valentine's Day!

 It was a wonderful Valentine's Day!  The kids had their multiple parties today and no doubt they are loved! I was able to help with Avery's class party and the kids were precious.  Playing games, using manners, and being a little sugar happy!


Next, it was off to our playgroup Valentine Party at the Gallacher's!  It was fantastic!  The kids again were spoiled, enjoyed lots of goodies, and play time with their bestest friends!  Thanks Carrie for such a LOVELY celebration!  



Finally, we ended the night with home made corn dogs, the babes LOVED them.  Trevor and I didn't think they were that bad either.  It wasn't the most romantic of Valentine's Days but it sure was full of love!  I am looking forward to our date night this weekend :)  But it was a great day!  


HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!

Florida in February

Is fun!


We had a great escape to Florida this week.  We had a good time visiting with Grammy, Grampa, and Uncle Scott.  We missed Auntie Lyn-Ann but  look forward to seeing her soon!  We spent lots of time playing at Grammy and Grampa's house which is always fun.  The kids had a few chocolate chip Mickey pancakes for breakfast and we just loved the time we spent together.  

On Thursday, we packed up and headed to Orlando where we spent the day at Sea World.  We enjoyed exploring the park and seeing all the water animals!  My favorite was the Clyde and Seamore Show!  Shamu is always fun too!  It is great to see the kids take it all in!  
















On Friday morning we made it over to the beach for a few hours.   Even though the skies were overcast we still had fun digging in the sand and jumping over waves.  It was a great getaway and always super to spend time with family. Thanks for having us Grammy and Grampa!  



Also, a huge thanks to Ryann for waiting to arrive!  We can't wait to meet you and we know your Mommy is ready to hold you... but we are so glad we will get to see you when you are born!

Weekend Recap!

Friday night was full of fun!  Avery had a date night with one of her best friends Leighton.  They got to have a fun date and dinner together, umbrella drinks and all!  They had way too much fun enjoying their alone time!  Thank you Jeanna for spoiling the girls!  Don't feel too bad for Dylan because he had another Mommy/Daddy date night and even got to climb on tractors after dinner!


 Last week we also had Donuts for Dad!  It was lots of fun and by being a volunteer I was able to see the big smiles on Avery and Dylan's faces while they spent some extra time with Trevor feasting on donuts!  Thanks for being such a wonderful Daddy!


After another fun Pajama Party Saturday night we enjoyed a super sweet Superbowl Party Sunday night.  The kids might have had more fun than the adults and I know the adults had fun.  The number of children seems to grow every year, the food gets better, and there is just more laughs all around.  The Parro's hosted a fantastic party and unfortunately my phone didn't take the best pictures but, you get the idea.  It was another weekend full of fun!  






We did have to reschedule Scottie's first birthday party due to a nasty cold going around but we cannot wait to celebrate with that sweet one year old!  Happy first birthday Scottie Grace!

Sweetness!

I never want to forget this sweet, sweet moment!

Today I woke Avery early from an afternoon snooze (I wanted to have some us time).  I quickly made her bed and assumed she went downstairs to get a drink.  But.. I couldn't find her.  I started to hear singing from Dylan's room.  When I went in I found her laying beside him.  She was rubbing his back, singing to him.  I was upset at first because his nap was not long enough.  But her sweet eyes looked at me and said, "Mama I just wanted to play with him, I love him!"  Safe to say I had a tear and ran for the camera! I don't ever want to forget how sweet their love is!











Last Friday, we made some Valentine art projects.  We had a lot of fun and it is pajama days like these filled with yummy breakfasts and all the kiddos favorites that are the best!  


This is Avery before a friends princess PJ party last Saturday night it was a drop off party from  6pm-8pm.  Aurora her favorite princess stopped by to face paint.  Avery loved it! And Dylan had fun on his Mommy and Daddy date too!


Another priceless picture of our babies!  I am so happy they have each other!  They brighten our days for sure!  Some days I feel like my heart just might pop like a balloon because it is just full of so much love!  I never imagined it was possible to love this much, amazing!  Thank you Trevor for these wonderful gifts!  I love you just as much and appreciate all you do for our family!  XOXO
