Birthday Celebration #2

We celebrated Kara and Ben's birthdays with their friends at school and of course we had to have cupcakes.

And Kara insisted that she wear her favorite dress, again, for her birthday party.

Princess Cake!

Kara was so excited to have three princesses on her birthday cake, she could hardly contain herself!

Who's gonna be three!!

What does a princess wish for....

Birthday Celebration #1

With all of our family in town for Thanksgiving, we celebrated Kara and Ben's birthdays a little early.

Happy 3rd Birthday, Kara!

Happy 1st Birthday, Ben!

Visit to Koi

We made a family trip to Koi Hair Design to see Shirley so that we could all get haircuts. Kara got her hair trimmed and curled.



She really liked her curls!




Ben did well with his first real haircut. Don't be fooled by this face... Ben had a great time at Shirley's salon.

See!

Princess Party

Kara helped Penny celebrate her 3rd birthday and got to dress up like a princess and meet Cinderella! She started out in her Cinderella dress and did a few outfit changes; she ate cake and brought home a wand and a crown and a bunch of princess goodies.






What more could a little girl want?

Play date

Kara and Penny have a lot of fun together... playing, coloring, snacking...

It is too cute.

Trick or Treat

Kara went around the neighborhood trick or treating this year and had a good time collecting candy.

Ben enjoyed passing out and playing with the candy.

Happy Halloween!

Our Little Ones

Kara always tries to help Ben.... as she reminds us, "I'm the big sister now."

But sometimes, being the big sister can be down right frustrating.

Despite the little things here and there, Kara says, "I love Ben and Mommy and Daddy so much."

Super Ben

He can lift a pumpkin with one hand...

He seeks justice for all...

He's ready to go when needed...

He's our Super Ben!!

Ben is thinking about all the possibilities that await.

Our Rosetta Fairy

Kara decided she wanted to be Rosetta, a fairy from the Tinker Bell movie, for Halloween. So, Grandma made her wish come true.
