Princess Camp

Anna went to Princess Camp again this year with Juliet.  She had a lot of fun!  They made really good crafts.  The teachers told us that she has really grown socially in the last year. 

Monday: Aladdin day

Tuesday: Cinderella day. She made a pretty necklace and the carriage behind her.  There was a purse somewhere too.

Wednesday: Ariel day  She made a mermaid tail and a stepping stone (in the next picture)

Thursday: Brave and Frozen day with a special guest visitor, Anna (from Frozen).

Luke wanted to show how he can hold things too.

Friday we got to go in for the last half hour to see them perform a few songs and have a Frozen themed princess tea party.

The girls were taught to drink with their pinky up.

Happy Birthday to Paige!

We had a lot of fun at Paige's birthday party.  She had a my little pony theme.  The kids liked jumping in her princess bounce house.  Happy Birthday to Paige!

Anna's dance recital

Anna did a great job at her dance recital!  She was really excited to get flowers.

Luke had a great time at the dance recital.  He didn't complain at all and genuinely seemed to be excited to be there.  Such a good brother.

Dance rehearsal

Anna's dance rehearsal was last week.  She lucked out with a really cool costume.  She was excited to be allowed to wear make-up.  She says she wants even more make-up on for the recital. She also likes wearing a bun.

Annual trip to the botanical gardens

Over Memorial weekend, we took our annual trip to the botanical gardens.  The kids were very good about walking.  Anna liked picking flowers.

Anna made a lovely bouquet.  

We take a lot of the same pictures every year.  This is one we won't ever forget to take!

Both looking at the camera giving real looking smiles???  What?!

Soccer and s'mores

Lukey and Anna picked out these hot diggity dog pajamas and were pretty excited to wear them for our first night this summer of s'mores, fire pit and a movie.  

Brooklyn's 1st birthday

Brooklyn turned one a few weeks ago.  The only pictures I got were of her eating her cake.  She did a pretty good job of smashing it!

Peony Garden

The peonies looked better than ever this year!  We took a walk through the arb then looked at the peony garden this morning.
