First Cars

The girls got Princess cars from Nana and Papa for their birthday...aren't these great?!? Olivia was a little hesitant yesterday, but she's warming up to them now.

Marcus loves these cars. He actually drives them by himself too. Surprisingly Emma is a great driver.

Bye Bye Everyone!

3rd Bday Party Time

We had a ton of friends and family show up for the 3rd year in a row. So far we have had great weather for all three birthdays we have done for the twins. It works out perfect to have everyone over and party in our front yard. Thanks to everyone that came. The girls still can't stop talking about it...they were really excited to have everyone here to share thier birthday celebration.

Tropical Cake

Happy 3rd Birthday Olivia & Emma! We celebrated in style with a Luau theme this weekend.


The girls each had their own little Hawaiian doll cake...we had to pretend to blow out candles because it was very windy yesterday.

The wind didn't blow away the birthday fun though...

Once again, Nana outdid herself and made the beautiful cake.

Look at the detail on this cake!

It was absolutely perfect!

Complete with sunbathing beauties...THANK YOU MOM...can't wait to see the next cake!

Funniest Home Videos?

This is hilarious. Marcus did this all on his own. Can you belive this kid didn't get injured during our week of injuries?

Hanging out

Sunday the girls and I went shopping in the morning which was a blast...then we just hung out for a while with Raymond.

Emma was sure to pick as many flowers/weeds as she could find. I think her boyfriends are in trouble...she LOVES flowers!

Marcus tested out Raymond's new boat. He always has to drive.

He even found some tools to help Raymond get it ready for the water.

The greatest thing about this boat is that Emma thinks it is her boat. When Raymond called to tell us he got the boat Emma said "You bought me a boat Raymond?" When we pulled into his driveway this weekend Emma said "There's my boat! It's beautiful!" She was serious. I asked her if she got to go on the boat before we left and she said "Nope, it's not ready yet." I said "When will it be ready?" She said "for my birthday!" I can not believe the things that come out of that girl's mouth lately. She cracks me up!

BBQ @ Raymond's

We went to the West-side for a Memorial Day BBQ at Raymond's house. Olivia is finally walking without a limp...

she's even running quite well. She kept up with all the kids at the party and there were lots of them there.

Here's Raymond with his cute little niece and his Mom. Marcus is keeping them all entertained.

It was so beautiful outside...perfect for a BBQ.

We even had smores...YUMMY!

Workin'

While we waited in the jeep for the cattle drive (see Grami's blog for more on that...), Marcus and Poppi went to work on the tractor.

Marcus sure does love tractors. He is a true boy.
