Washington Park

We found a new park that the girls had never been to before to play at.  It was one of the finally nice days after a lot of cold ones!  The girls had a great time.  Here's some pictures..

Gymnastics

I little bit ago we missed our normal gymnastics time and went to a Saturday gymnastics.  The girls loved it since there were less kids and they pretty much had the run of the gym!  They are both getting better at their cartwheels and hand stands too.  Here are some pictures...

Then another day we were hunting a yard sale and outside of it they were trying to find homes for these cute puppies.  The girls really wanted to take one home but we resisted.

First T ball game

Rylee's first T ball game was this weekend.  I was a little nervous about how she would do since she's been spending the majority of her time either playing in the dirt or throwing dirt or grass in our neighbor Nate's hair, who is also on the team.  Rylee actually did very well and only had to be reminded a handful of times (just like all the other kids) to pay attention.  Here are some pictures from the game.  It was very cold so we all had to bundle up!


a little pre-game stretching..


The Tigers!  (there were 2 kids not there Nate and Kashyah...but here they are!  Cornell, Gabriel, Coen, William, Coleson, Breanna, Brydon, Rylee and Miranda)

Birthday Party

This year we decided that the girls and their friends had out-grown our house.  It was time to finally have our first party at somewhere other than at home.  The girls wanted a party at a local gym so it was set!  While my girls still don't mind, we are continuing to do a joint party since their birthdays are so close.  We had 10 kids plus 2 babies total there and everyone had a blast!  There was a couple of blow up slides, a small trampoline, a foam pit plus LOTS of room to run!  My camera is messing up so a lot of the pictures are blurry but here are a few of the ones that I got...

Such good cousins

The girls just love baby Griffin!  They really love everything about him, but they really love just holding him.  Here are a few pictures of the girls holding him...
