Memorial Day

We had beautiful weather on Memorial Day....so Jason went to our garden plots and spent several hours tilling the ground up and adding new dirt. Then we all went out to a local park and enjoyed some play time...it was a bit windy and breezy by the water. The girls love throwing rocks in the water and hate to leave it. Then we went and got an ice cream treat and went to another park to enjoy that. We ended the day enjoying a nice dinner at my parents house...lots of fresh air, and too bad it had to end with miss Emma getting a fever...and now we have spent a couple days with both the girls having fevers and runny noses. No other symptoms so hoping it is just a virus and cold. Looking forward to lots more of beautiful weekends ahead!

Thanks Aunty Megs

The skirts are still a little big, but we looked so cute on Sunday....thank you!!

Loved the Carnival

There is a small little carnival that set up about 5 minutes from us, so we decided to check it out with the girls the other night....it was a HUGE HIT. Angelica and Emma's eyes were so wide and excited and taking in all the festivities. Angelica was so excited and wanted to ride EVERY ride there was and loved every second of it. Emma wanted to as well, but wasn't tall enough for any of them...so she walked around with a sad look of disappointment constantly asking, "On it?" Luckily they let Jason ride down the big slide with her and both the girls loved the Carousel so we went on that twice. They also enjoyed going fishing with Papa and got to pick out a stuffed animal...which Angel has now added her Nemo fish to the handful of animals she already sleeps with!! We bought some cotton candy that they got to try for the first time and they were hooked!!! It was an easy way to drop some cash, but the excitement and fun we had was well worth it...Angel has pretty much talked about it for the last three days!! Looking forward to our big Kitsap County Fair in August!!

Emma loved the horses and Angel held on tight

Mama's Shoes

...as if they don't have any TOYS to play with!!

Emma's Serious Face

Lately, Emma has been making us laugh so hard with her silly and new serious face. I will have to try and get it on video because it is very cute...but here is a shot of it I tried to capture.

Emma's 18 month check up

Emma checked out with a clean bill of health. The doctor was surprised that she was talking so much and could count to 10...but hey, she has a big sister to keep up with! Emma even managed to sing the doctor "Old MacDonald"!! She weighed in at 23 pounds (25-50%)and is 32.75 inches tall (75-90%). A healthy and growing girl, what more could we ask for?!! Just can't believe how big they get so fast!!

Summer Hair Cut

I meant to take a before picture...but as many of you know, Angel's hair was getting SO LONG and in desperate need of a good trim. So with a bowl of skittles in her hands, she stood very still as I cut about 3 inches off of her hair....and think it came out alright!! At least it looks and feels much healthier!!

Bath Colors

Angel saw some pics of her friends Lili and Nicholas that had some neat bath water color fun and wanted to join in!!! They enjoy picking out which color they will have each night!!
