Memorial Day Fun!

We were busy memorial weekend with our family and friends. It was lots of fun to play with everyone! Here are some of our favorite moments ....

A visit with Papaw (and Grappa who Emily loves!)

Popsicles - we even shared with Mommy and Daddy

A Race Day BBQ at the Maines

Meeting Charlie Ranek (there may be some fighting over this cutie)

QUACK! QUACK!

Claire showing off ...

Fun at the park!

Today we headed to Forest Park and the girls had a blast on the playground. They also got to ride on the carousel which was a big hit. Smiles and giggles the whole way!

Emily exploring ...

Claire on the lookout ...

Daddy trying to wrangle them in!

Backyard Fun!

The girls have been enjoying their new found freedom outdoors. The weather has been nice lately so they have been playing with their new sand and water table from Grandma, as well as running around the yard. They were a little scared of the grass at first, but now they are everywhere and like to eat the grass, and rocks, and dandelions, and whatever else they can find.

Oh boy - we have our hands full!

Happy Mother's Day!

A little late posting this, but just wanted to give thanks to all mothers out there. I don't know that I truly appreciated all the things a mom does until Emily and Claire came into my life. They are the best gifts I could have ever asked for! This is a picture Dad tried to capture of their efforts on my Mother's Day card :)

I love you girls!!!

Check it out!

Daddy put up our new swing set this weekend with the help of our awesome Uncles Andy and Danny! (Even our cousin Nathan helped). We can't thank the Thomas's enough for letting us have this cool new playground. It is sure to bring us years of fun!!!!

Thanks to our Auntie Debbie for giving us our baby swings too!
