WORLDS OF FUN

This is right before Macey got stuck going around and around in circles

Addalyn got around great in her pink go-cart!

Macey loved this ride

Addalyn had to sit it out the first time to make sure it wasn't scary, but she rode the second time and loved it too!

I LOVE this picture!

The miniature Detonator

Whacky Worm! First roller coaster ride for my babies!

Pretty sure she gave it 2 Thumbs Up, you just can't see the other thumb. :-)

The Snoopy statue wasn't as scary as the real Snoopy, according to Addalyn.

I love these 4 kids so stinkin' much!

Thanks, Nana, for the face painting! (for paying for it, not doing it--haha!)

Poor girl passed out in line for funnel cakes. She missed out!

A relaxing train ride. And my favorite Addalyn quote of the day, "Mama, I bet I know why they call thisWorlds of Fun...because it is SO SO FUN!".

I attempted to video her first roller coaster ride. (as I said before, when Sterling's around, Addalyn wants nothing to do with me, otherwise I'd have video taped her first ride too!) She seemed to like it but you can tell at the end where the ride gets pretty fast and turns a sharp corner, she wasn't so sure. Didn't stop her from riding again and again!

Weston Apple Fest

Macey's first ride on a school bus! (yes, it was Addalyn's first too, but when Sterling's around she's much too cool for Mommy so they had to go find their own seat to sit in)

Macey the bug!

Addalyn, Sydney, Lauren and Macey :-)

Homemade Apple Pie!

Macey painting pumpkins

Addalyn's work of art (poor kids got mommy's artistic skills, not daddy's)

such happy little girls

before...

...and after!

We Love To Swing

S'Mores!

Papa had some old wood to burn and an old grill to burn them in...guess what that means? The girls loved roasting their marshmallows and I only got hit in the face with those super long sticks half a dozen times. I love fall!

Where's My Landlord?!

I'm not totally sold on this whole homeowning thing. I think it's a tad overrated! That or I just have really crappy luck. After months of dealing with water backing up in my basement, I finally contacted the city (which was darn near impossible). They came out and fixed the break in the pipe under my sidewalk. We had been staying at my dad's house so after a week of that, we "moved home" again and within 2 hours the basement was flooded again. Turns out, there was ANOTHER break in the pipe right under the front of my house. The bill for that was going to be outrageous but luckily Patty knew someone that was able to get it repaired for half the price. Anywho, this is why I haven't updated the blog recently. It's been nothing but chaos and I haven't been home to upload pictures. Let's all hope and pray that this house holds up...at least til the girls go to college and take their Mommy with them to be their roomy. :-)

Liberty Fall Fest

We went to the Liberty Fall Festival with Gigi a couple weeks ago. We walked there from her house (3 miles round trip with NO stroller--the girls were troopers!). Their favorite part was the candy from the parade and then the carnival. It was a perfect morning/afternoon!

They really are starting to look alike! (and it's not just because their
hair is fixed the same and their outfits are identical) :-P

Running to get to the parade (the walk home was much, much slower)

The cousins posing for a picture...and Macey sitting like such a little lady
Haha!

Seriously, the candy was the best part

With my little loves after the parade (and please note that their undershirts are different colors so people can tell them apart) :-)

Big enough to ride? YES Brave enough to ride? NO

Addalyn is concentrating so hard! They both won a giant inflatable hammer. Those were fun on the walk home...

They got a slushie to share...but neither one of them came up for air...

...in fear that one may get more than the other...

...they really walked like this. So cute though!

Macey Being Macey

I asked this kid to go brush her teeth before bed and 30 seconds later she came out like this! Such a good listener. :-)
PS--I swear I always have my camera close...I'd hate for anybody to think I was digging around looking for it while she was screaming like this. And she wasn't in pain, she was just really ticked off.

Dinosaur Exhibit at Union Station

Addalyn looks so tiny next to this fella

Her best dinosaur impression :-)

Macey finally warmed up to the dinosaurs once she realized they weren't real

Digging for footprints

This scared her more than I thought it would!

Macer was being brave with Gigi

Mace being scary...and Addalyn being scared!
