Happy Easter!

Happy Easter to everyone! We hope you had a very happy holiday, and enjoy the few pictures that mommy was able to capture… We were NOT up for being photographed this time, and she wasn’t feeling much like doing it, but she still managed to get a few cute shots!

-Abby & Emily

We had a great time at Nannie & Opa’s house… especially when we got to decorate eggs!

The Easter bunny even managed to find us all the way at their house, and left us some awesome goodies!

Emily’s favorite gift was her Dora sunglasses, and Abby’s was her very own strand of pearls that she had been asking for forever!

Emily kept sneaking more peeps when we weren’t looking…

We even got to have an awesome Easter egg hunt outside when daddy’s cousins came for dinner! We did GREAT this year, and Emily never even noticed that mommy kept rehiding her eggs to find again. She LOVED finding them!

 

Happy Easter everyone!

My first day of soccer

I started my first outdoor soccer class today, and although I’m still a little under the weather, I had a pretty good time. Well, the first half hour was pretty fun, but as soon as we broke into teams and had to “play” soccer, I decided it’s not really my thing. I’ll keep trying though & see if I like it more next time! I was actually pretty good!

Look at that kicking leg I’ve got! Mommy says I look like a natural!

Emily enjoyed sitting on the sidelines in her princess chair, eating goldfish with her best friend, Eli…

This is where it all went downhill… I’m not a very competitive person

The best part of the day was spending it with my goofy friends!

Friends are the best!

I’ve been home sick this week from school with a fever and a bad cold, and my friends are the best! They made me a beautiful card FULL of cool stickers, and picked some lovely flowers  to cheer me up! One of my friends even brought me my “homework”  home to work on! I can’t wait to thank everyone when I go back next week!

Emily’s Toy Story Birthday Party!

Today’s the day! We FINALLY got to have my Toy Story birthday party! We had so much fun dressing up as cowboys and cowgirls (I got to be Jessie from the movie), playing Toy Story games, coloring HUGE Toy Story pictures and even eating a fully themed Toy Story meal! I’m not sure who had more fun… me, or mommy as she was planning it all! Thanks for an awesome day everyone… I had a blast!

Mommy and her cowgirls (and baby cowboy on the way…)!

Everyone got their own special hat and red bandana when they got to the party!

Mommy had a lot of fun planning out the menu, and we had fun helping her bake and decorate for the big event!

We made Woody’s Sheriff Badge cookies, and Jessie’s Red Cowgirl Hat cookies…

I am a candle blowing EXPERT!

What a fun day! Thanks for coming everyone!

Happy Birthday Emily!

Today was an awesome day! I finally turned TWO!!! I’ve turned into such a “big” little girl, and am having a blast with myself these days! I’m talking up a storm (finally!), LOVE reading books, I’m a little daredevil, and love climbing on the furniture, I love to cuddle and hug my mommy & daddy, and my best friend is my bigger sister Abby! We could play princesses and dance together all day long! We had a fun day celebrating my birthday and getting ready for my big Toy Story family birthday party!

-Emily

 

Mommy got me a special donut with pink frosting and sprinkles for my birthday breakfast, and I was so excited to eat it, that I couldn’t even wait to blow the candle out first! Mommy almost had a heart attack…

I had a blast helping mommy & Abby make my Toy Story cupcakes , and LOVED trying on all the cowboy hats for my party!

Daddy took us all out to Fuddruckers's for my birthday dinner, where I got to go on my favorite merry-go-round… of course!

When we got home, I got to open all my presents (with a little help from my big sis)… Thank you everyone! I LOVED it all!

Mor-Mor got me the cutest Toy Story boots to go with my birthday outfit!

My favorite gift of the day was my very own Toy Story Jessie doll… we’re going to be great friends!

Thank you everyone for making my birthday a special one! Stay tuned for pictures of my Toy Story birthday party!
