Father's Day 2013

We took my dad out to celebrate Father's Day. We drove all the way to Sequim to eat at the Oak Table restaurant. They have THE best apple and cinnamon pancakes and other breakfast-type foods. I'm not even a breakfast food eater (I like sandwiches) so this is saying something... Then we took the girls to the park, watched them play, some some ducks and ducklings, and just enjoyed the beautiful weather. Afterwards, we drove around and then we showed my dad our new house that we bought. It truly was a great little outing. Good memories... :)

Big Girl Bed

We pretty much ripped the band-aid off... now Isabelle is sleeping in a big girl bed. Grammy bought the girls Dora the Explorer and Hello Kitty sheets--awesome!

Letter to Olivia

Gabriella wrote this in one of her writing journals... The kids read a book, think about what connection they had, and then write about it. Sweet, eh?

Gabby Lost her Front Teeth!

So Travis took Gabby to the dentist today because her front tooth was a little loose from being bumped by another kiddo... She came back with BOTH teeth extracted. SURPRISE! I had no idea that was happening... Apparently, they grow in straighter when both teeth are gone. I love this look, though. Losing your front teeth is such a milestone.

The t-shirt says Shoot for the Stars

Gabby and her buddy, Emily, had their first sleep-over at our house. They've known each other since they were two... She is Gabby's "first friend" and is moving to Singapore so we wanted to do something special to say goodbye. The girls ate junk food and hardly slept, but they had a blast and got along great. All in all, a first successful sleep-over.
