Happy Birthday Ross!

Ross' 42nd birthday was Sunday, May 2! We celebrated his birthday at Lucy's family birthday party and I just love these two pictures below! Lucy's birthday is April 28, so they are very close together! We gave Ross breakfast in bed and he's such a good sport to go along with this! But after 11 years of being with me, I bet he's started to really like it and would miss it if it weren't there! 

His birthday was a rainy day and we were all tired, so we lounged around the house and then went to Freddy's for dinner that night. He opened some presents later and all in all had a good birthday! 

Lucy Is 8!!

Lucy turned 8 years old on April 28! I'm sure I say it every year, but it's hard to believe she's another year older! She had a sleepover with four of her girlfriends the weekend before her birthday and that was a really fun time! The girls were all very good and got along well. They stayed up until about 1am and woke up around 8am. We were a little tired, but it was worth it!

Lucy had breakfast in bed on her birthday and went to school. After school we picked her up and went to Claire's in the mall to get her ears pierced! She has been talking about getting her ears pierced for quite a while and was excited, but nervous, to get them done. She did great and only cried just a little bit when it was over. She chose pink hearts for her earrings and it's so fun to see her with them in! We ate at Qdoba (one of her favs right now) for dinner and then opened presents and had cake at home with Gumma and Poppy. 

That weekend Gramma and Grampa came to visit for her family birthday party. We had cake, presents, and played kickball outside in the evening. It was a great birthday celebration for a great girl! 

Wedding Dress Fun!

On our anniversary, April 17, and Molly really wanted me to get out my wedding veil so she could play with it. The veil is stored in my wedding dress bag, which is stored in Molly's closet, so once she saw me getting into the dress bag she wanted me to get out the wedding dress, too. I said sure, why not, so got it out for her to look at. She asked if she could put it on, so I let both Lucy and Molly try it on. They had the best time doing so and felt so pretty!  

Pizza Seeds

We were looking around at some flowers to purchase for our front yard a few weeks ago and Molly was  busy looking at everything, too. She saw the row of all the vegetable seeds for garden planting and was reading the names of everything. When she saw the plants and sign for Sweet Basil she said "oh, this is for pizza, you can grow pizza." I thought that was so funny! 

Afternoon Drive

 One Saturday afternoon the girls were playing outside with the Barbie car. It was a nice day so we decided to take a walk around the neighborhood...well, Ross and I took a walk. The girls drove the Barbie car around the neighborhood! It was so fun to watch them drive around! Lucy loves to drive and Molly loves to pretend like she's in a parade waving to everyone. You can watch them here!
