So...very...tired...

Brace yourselves, this may be the worst blog post ever. I am SO tired. We were prepping all day for something we're doing tomorrow, and then tonight we went to a friends' Oktoberfest party. It was fun but exhausting keeping track of the kids. There were 36 kids there. THIRTY-SIX! So anyway, I took one picture on my cell phone today before we left and it was of the girls running across the room and flopping themselves on the couch. They did it approximately 57 times before we had to leave.

Now that's entertainment. Good night!

Now and Then: Contrasts

I took this picture of Leyna after dinner tonight:

and it immediately reminded me of this picture:

August 13, 2009

I guess they're not exactly the same but something about her face now still reminds me of that face back then. But notice how her eyes have changed from blue to green? She was two in that picture and for the longest time we just assumed she still had blue eyes until one day we were like, Hey - here eyes are green! And aren't they GORGEOUS?!

So, next I took this picture of Cora (and it's SO Cora!):

And then I searched and searched through our picture archives looking for a similar face. But then I found this:

How's that for contrast? Mischief vs Quiet Innocence. I miss that little baby girl but I sure do love our curly-headed little rascal :)

Jumping beans

The girls had the time of their life this morning. We went to a place that had nothing but moon bounces and they had an absolute ball. I don't know how they made it through the day after expending that much energy but they did! We were there with our buddies Conner, Scott, Reagan, and Reed and finished off our play date with a yummy lunch out. Love the last picture :) The rest of them are kinda blurry from all the bouncing!

Wordless Wednesday

A day at the fair

Today we spent the day at the fair with Pee Paw, Nana, Aunt Jeannie, Uncle Gene, Aunt Marty, and Clinton. Phew! It was a little rainy at first but the weather straightened out and we had a really nice time. Cora had such a nice time that she decided not to take a nap today. AT ALL. I am still in shock. But I love how easy bed time was!!!

 I also just have to share this cute craft we made today...little pizzas!
