Little Girls, Little Girls. . .

I had to post these pictures so I could brag on Kevin a little bit. Trooper that he is, he voluteered to watch ALL these girls for several hours while some friends of mine and I could go

have a night out. Silly me, I was worried about him the whole time and I came home to a clean house, several planted trees and a house full of girls playing ring around the rosies!! What a guy. He actually said it was fun! I didn't hear him volunteer to do it again next month though ;0) He took these pictures and I loved the funny face one--what a bunch of silly girls.

We Love Washington

We went to Gig Harbor, WA last week to see my Aunt Tammy and Uncle Jim sealed in the Seattle temple. We love it there and were so excited to be able to be there for such a special reason. Here are a few pictures of us at the beach and

at a park near Tammy and Jim's home in Gig Harbor.

Erin was scared of the water so she wouldn't let Kevin put her down anywhere near it. She didn't, however, have any problems scouring the forest for giant slugs. . .

Kaylee came up with this pose. You can tell they just hate it when we take pictures of them. :0)

Thier contest is pretty cool too but mainly I should just not be selfish with my good finds and spread the news so more people can enjoy this site. Happy reading!!

Dancing and Tea

Tea anyone? Kaylee set up a tea party for her and Erin while the twins were at school. Erin was quite well behaved for an 18 month old--only one plate was broken. (That's just what happens when you smash the plates together repeatedly to make pretty music.)

Kaylee was a wolf at her dance recital. Yes, a fairy princess might have been a tad bit cuter and more worth the $85 the costume cost but she loved being in the spotlight regardless of the costume's ungirliness. And who ever heard of Little Red Riding Hood being chased by a fairy princess? She was great and the preformance was really cute so that makes it all worth it RIGHT???!!!!

Well. . . it's been a while. . . lots to update so I just won't. Okay, maybe a little updating. I've been exploring face book and I really didn't even have time for blogging--now I'm dabbling in both!! Crazy, I know, and I guess I'll just settle with not being very consistent with either one so thanks for your patience (as if you're that concerned right? You're too busy keeping up with all your stuff so it's good I'm not giving you a lot to read!!) Anyway. . . the twins had a birthday in February so I'll start there.

As you can see lots of kids=lots of fun. Audrey and Kira wanted a pincess birthday even though there were a few boys on the guest list--what can you do right? A girl gets what a girl wants (on her birthday anyway) It was a great time but obviously it took a few months to recover from since I'm just now getting this on here. . .

Woops, gotta go. I guess this is all the updating I'm doing for now. Just keeping it short and sweet for my peeps ;0)

Don't Be "Crappy"--Watch This

This is so hilarious and right on. While accessing the internet to watch this I found myself getting frustrated with my "slow" internet. What??!! It takes more than one full minute to access people/places/thoughts from all over the world with a little box on my desk??!! Unbelievable. . .

A piano for me

Now someone just needs to tell these girls. . .

Yeah!!!! I've wanted one for so long and apparently I'm not the only one that was excited about it. I'm quickly realizing that thirty or so fingers on a piano at the same time can make quite a lot of noise so we've had to lay down some ground rules like "no playing while some one is on the phone", "one person at a time", and "no brownies even NEAR the piano". I might even get to play it some time when the used-but-new-to-us-ness wears off ;0) Hooray for Craig's list--it got me a piano!!! (That and tax returns of course)
