Howdy Town!

After golfing we headed to Farm Country, or as Ali would say Howdy Town. It was pretty fun, I think the highlight of the whole thing was getting to ride these little ponies. Emily did not like it at all, just a few seconds after this picture was taken she started freaking out and wanted to get off. Ali thought that it was awesome, she was either laughing or looking like she was going to fall asleep while on the ride.

We also got to go on a horse drawn wagon ride. It was really long. The kids thought that it was fun though, I guess that it all that really counts.

Ali loved to feed the animals. She would laugh and giggle every time their tongues would touch her hand. This particular one bit her finger a little.

This animal, yes I am an idiot and have now idea what it is called was the funniest part of the whole trip. Ali had looked at it first because she was of course running the whole time and would not wait for the rest of us. After she decided she was done with this guy she turned around to look at us and it climbed up on the fence and was right by her head. Emily tought that it was the funniest thing ever. They both loved playing with it's ears, they were very odd.

Pleased as Punch to be on the pony again.

My Little Golfer!

Yesterday I had no kids to watch so Matt and I took the girls to the golf course so that Ali could show me how good she is at golfing. I have never seen her do it before, I was impressed. I hate to say it, but she is probably better at it than me.

Headed to their spots.

Ready to Swing!

Emiy had to be right in on the action, she had a great time running around and trying to hit balls like her big sister.

Well, it has been another boring couple of weeks around here. Our highlights have been making a Birthday cake for Daniel and painting some ceramic cupcakes with Kazia. As you can tell the girls LOVED the chocolate frosting and got it all over their faces. We can not wait until the weather is nice enough to play outside again. We are all going stir crazy, especially myself preparing for my day tomarrow. I am going to have 10 kids here tomarrow, of course this counts Ali and Emily, but, it is going to be insane. I have to just keep telling myself that it is just for one day. Thank heavens Matt will be off to help me.

Ali and Kazia painting. Kelly, you would be so proud of me that I let the girls do a messy craft.

Ali's beautfiul cupcake, I think that it looks like a big blob. She is so proud of it, I don't know how I am ever going to be able to get rid of it from sitting on the middle of the oven.

And here we have Kazia, she was really annoyed that I kept taking pictures of them.

Goofin Around!

Silly Emily in Ali's sunglasses.

Ali modeling her knew favorite outfit. She told me that she loves it so much because red is her favorite color, and she has never had a red outfit before. She had to wear it two days in a row. She may cry tomarrow when I tell her that she can't wear it again.

Ali really proud of herself because she finished her Car puzzle all by herself.

I finally did it, I have been wanting to make some bows for the girls for a long time now, and it was really easy. I think that I could be addicted.

The Zoo on St. Patricks Day!

On St. Patricks Day we went to the Zoo as soon as Ali was done at school. We met Becky, Jadon, Miah, and some other friends there. It was so nice to be out in the beautiful weather and not even have to wear a jacket the whole time. Ali and Emily were in heaven running around.

Ali's favorite animals this year. I think that it is because of Marty on Madagascar.


Every animal that we got somewhat close to decided that they were either going to go #1 or #2 for us while we were watching them.

Oh, she's almost there.

Emily loved this boat. She would climb in and out, and up and over all the seats. She was realled mad at me when it was time to move on from the boat.

Ali reading her treasure map, trying to figure out how we get to the park.

Mommy's little monkey!

Emily would go on this slide over and over. She is so brave.

Ali, and Becky in the background - checking out the mole holes.

Thanks for hanging out at the zoo with us guys. We loved it.

Silly Ali

The other night when I asked Ali to go and put her pajamas on she came out like this. She came out with two shirts, and pants with shorts over them.

Ali and sweet Lady.

Caped Crusaders!

So I was feeling crafty awhile back and I made the kids some capes to play in. Ali of course chose Lighning McQueen fabric.

Totally Random Weirdness!

Here are some pictures of the girls. Ali is strikin' a pose for Abby.

So as you can tell, we have not been up to much around here lately. This has pretty much been our entertainment. Matt pretends that he is walking down stairs and going down elevators. The girls love this and laugh hysterically when he does it. Hope you all find it as amusing as we do.

Valentines Day!

My little Valentine Emily all dressed up in her V-Day outfit.

Oh, the excitement that Mr. Potato Head brings to our house!

Poor Ali went down when she was bowling. She stepped over the line and slipped and fell on the grease that they slather on the floor. Poor girl was quite the tropper, she got up and shook it off.
