Lil Conversations

Mama: Hannah you want to try this soup it's really good!


Hannah: Um...nah. Maybe later. Like when I'm older maybe. (This is her new answer to trying new foods)

Mama: When you're older huh? Like when were you thinkin?

Hannah: Ohhhh...like, ya know...when I'm as big as daddy or something like that. Then I'll be ok with trying it. ♥

Movie Night

Popped some popcorn, baked some cookies and had family movie night last night.  We watched "How to Train Your Dragon" for about the 5th time...Hannah REALLY loves that movie.  The girls shared popcorn and snuggle space. 

I really love the sun...

Hannah picked out some fantastic blue polish for us to share and wear for spring too.  She's got good taste.  :)

I like vinegar...and baking soda...they really do work!

A day in the sun...much needed.

 The joy of popsicles

Our pole bean teepees. 

              Ahhhhh

           These girls love them some dirt



Happiness...at least for today...

 Today happiness was...a freshly tilled plot of dirt to play in (for both mama and girls), unlimited popsicles and sunburned shoulders!


Thank you MUCHO to my dad who took time out of his day and came and tilled up the massive plot of dirt for us. We sure appreciate it! ♥

Zoo Day with the Washington Folk

We spent one of the Washington days up at the Woodland Park Zoo.  This was an awesome zoo!  Of course compared to the Oregon Zoo where things are always under construction, something better isn't too hard to find. We spent a huge part of the day there and didn't even make it to everything!  We were all pooped by the time we left, but the girls had a blast and were so engaged in everything.  We thought they'd pass out in the car on the way back but they just kept-a-goin!  Hannah's favorite was the dinosaurs (we went thru twice) and Abby seemed to really love the giraffes.  Thank you Poppa and Gramma for taking us to the zoo.  :)

Spring Fun!

So a few weeks ago we took the girls to get some fun pictures taken.  I think these are the first pictures I've had taken professionally of just the girls!  A wonderful girly Emily of Emily G Photography (who I happen to have attended highschool with) took these fabulous pictures!  I cannot WAIT to see and get the rest of them.  They are beautifully done and she was so awesome with the girls.  They immediately fell in love with her and had a great time.  It was the perfect amount of time to take pictures of just the girls too.  We will definitely be using Miss Emily again.  :)  Here's her blog: http://www.emilygphotography.com/blog/    She's also on facebook and there's a link to her blog on my sidebar on the left.  Lovely lady and awesome photos!  Thank you Emily!!
