26 on the 26th!

Happy Birthday to my wonderful husband!

I found this picture of Travis and it reminded me SO much of this picture of Ethan. Definitely his father's son, they are both so cute!

And this one of Chloë looks a lot like Travis, also both VERY cute!

Chloë Bug...

... and her bugs

Hard to believe this little girly girl LOVES bugs!

5

I cannot believe Ethan is 5 today. He is at such a fun age where he wants to learn about everything and he just goes a mile a minute. Ethan keeps us entertained everyday and loves being the center of attention. 5 is definitely going to be a blast! Happy Birthday E!

Catching up... Fist day of School

Ethan was all set to go to his first day of preschool on Aug 31 and since Chloë registered late she wasn't going to start until the following week. But when we went to the school to drop Ethan off her teacher said they only had 2 kids in class that day and Chloë could stay! She didn't have any of her stuff but off she went anyway. They are both loving school and they really like their teachers.

First day of school

Here they are going to their 2nd day of school, backpacks on and ready to go!

Catching up... Dino Park

August 7 we took a trip up to the Dinosaur Park with Papa Wendell and Nana Carole. The kids love running around and naming all the dinos they know!

Worlds Most Dangerous Creatures!

Chloë of course loved the pink dino

XOXO

I was getting the kids some juice and I came out of the kitchen to this... "We're hugging each other!" I love that they love each other so much!

Dexter's Dream?

Travis and I finally got our living room painted. Goodbye yellow and brown...

... Hello "splendor"
It is SO bright in the living room now, it doesn't even feel like our house anymore. When Ethan saw it this morning he said "wow you got new colors? you did a good job!"

Bridal Veil Falls '11

We took a trip up to Bridal Veil Falls again this summer. The water was freezing but the kids didn't mind. Ethan was completly soaked by the time we left, they had a blast!

Catching Up- 4th of July

We had a great 4th of July this year, the kids didn't really like the loud fireworks but they loved the sparklers!

Visit with cousin Killian

Ethan and Chloë had so much fun visiting with their cousin Killian! They swam a little, showed him the room where they can color on the walls, jumped around and were just plain silly. We also went with them to see Cars 2 and walked through the planetarium. Its always fun to see the cousins together!
