Day 45: February 14, 2011 { Happy Valentine's Day!}

Happy Valentine's Day! This is Ava enjoying her gifts from the day. My mom got us tulips and Matt's grandparents sent the babies a package. Each of them got a monkey and a little animal gift box with chocolate covered animal crackers! There was a card for each of them and a beautiful butterfly wind chime for Matt and me. I hung it up outside and think it will be nice to hear it "chime" with out windows open upstairs in our bedroom. After this picture, Matt came home with baloons and Brayden woke up.

Day 41: February 10, 2011 {Happy Valentine's Day!}

These are the boxes from their parties today. They were able to decorate them any way they wanted and then the kids put their cards and candy into them. I just have to hide the candy from them....and ME!

October 31

Trick or Treating!! When I decided to dress the kids up as Pebbles and BamBam, I thought it would be super cute to do the whole Flintstone family! So we did. :) At first, Brayden didn't understand what was going on, but once he figured out he could get candy, we couldn't keep up with him!

October 30

Publix had a trick or treating thing at their store. The seafood dept had fishing for candy. How cute!! Ava even won free ice cream at the ring toss! After, we went downtown for a Fall Festival.

October 29

One of my friends had a Halloween costume party. This is her neice, Arden, with Brayden and Ava. Arden's mom was on of my best friends in high school and now the girls are in ballet together!

October 27

We took the kids to the pumpkin patch to pick out pumpkins. They had a few fun things, including shopping carts. How much fun was that? That was, by far, the best part if you ask my kids!

The SWAT team came to do a demonstration at the school for the kids. This is the dog sniffing for drugs. The students really thought it was neat. They had all of their weapons too!

October 26

Keeping with the reusable bags...Publix had mini ones and the kids liked them. So I got them so they could use them for trick or treating.

October 6-Halloween decorations

We went to Joann's just to look and the babies were each able to choose their own decoration. Brayden picked the spider and Ava chose the witch. They are very proud of their very own decorations for Halloween!

April 4-Happy Easter!

Easter morning with the baskets and hunting for eggs. Ava had a better time hunting for eggs and Brayden realized that if he found one and opened it he could eat the candy. So he just ate the candy.
