Happy Birthday, Mommy!

On Monday Mommy turned 33! Grandma & Grandpa also arrived on Monday and we had a great party Monday night. Then on Tuesday Mommy & Daddy went to Mommy's favorite restaurant - Bazin's - yum!






Thanks for a great visit, Grandma & Grandpa!

Natural History Museum

On Saturday we took a trip to the natural history museum. We went to a special exhibit with live butterflies. Anna loved it and Abby liked it at first, but then she got a little scared. After the butterflies we checked out the other insects, animal skeletons, Hope diamond, deep sea exhibit, and mammals.

Happy Halloween!

We had a great Halloween this year. Anna loved being Mini Mouse and Abby loved being a bumble bee. They were both so excited to put their costumes on. They trick-or-treated with a bunch of kids from the neighborhood and went to a ton of houses.

Wow, I can't believe this!
