favorite songs!

I love how much the twins love music and rockin' out in the car with me!!! 

Picture the twins...all buckled in their car seats..sunglasses on... and heads bobbing back and forth to the beat.... it is the cutest thing EVER!

James:

• Life is a Highway - Rascal Flats (James sings "Life is a HALLWAY")
• New Divide - Linkin Park
• Airplanes - B.o.B featuring Hayley Williams
• Imma Be - Black Eyed Peas

McKenzie:

• Drop in the Ocean - Ron Pope (I know so random, but one of my all time favorite songs)
• All the Single Ladies - Chipmunk version (McKenzie sings "all the SINGLETS")
• Miley Cyrus - Party in the U.S.A
• Airplanes - B.o.B featuring Hayley Williams
• Imma Be - Black Eyed Peas

Since I use this blog as virtual baby book for the twins, I had to write down their favorite songs before I forget them!!

i love you, Jeremy!

You make me sooo happy!!!!  Thank you for being such an amazing husband, father, and my best friend!

North Carolina 2010

We went to NC again this summer and had a blast visiting Auntie Nea Nea, Uncle Jeff and sweet baby Layla!  We spent most of the time just relaxing!  It was such a fun vacation and so hard to leave.  Don't grow up too fast Layla!!!  We love you guys so much, thanks for such a fun time!!!

 

We went to the beach in Wilmington, it was such a fun time!  James & McKenzie "surfed" (really boogie boarded)with Uncle Jeff!  We saw lots of Jellyfish in the water... Jenea and I were not fans of this at all.  Luckily you could see them because they had a little bit of brown on them... but still..it was scary!

 

Isn't this ridiculous!  Princess Layla, loving the beach already!!
 

We also checked out this Farm with all sorts of animals!  It was soo hot and humid, but super fun!  We fed a black bear, cows, camel, llamas.... sheep, goats... you name it was there!  Pretty cool little place.  The only thing we didn't get to see was the Alligator.

 

the twins went running from this Llama, not sure who was more scared... the twins or the Llama!  ha!

 

 
  
Here are a few more random pictures from North Carolina! (most of these pictures were taken by James, he is getting really good with the camera)

This is my favorite picture... so cute the twins helping uncle jeff!  Jeff even had James inside the truck pressing the gas pedal for him as he tried to jump his friends truck!! 

   

Toy Story 3

Toy Story is a HUGE hit in our house!!  We literally were counting down the days until Toy Story 3 came out in the theater!  We saw it in 3D which ended up being a mistake because the twins didn't wear their glasses.. so they watched a blurry movie!  Oh well.  I thought they would think the glasses were cool!  James and McKenzie went decked out in their Toy Story clothes and even brought their Woody and Jessie dolls... it was adorable walking into the theater!

 
 

We happened to see this on Father's Day, which was also the first movie Jeremy has seen with the twins. 

Happy Father's Day 2010!!
 
  

Happy 30th Birthday Jen!!!!

Good times with our besties the Gregors!  Seriously am I this behind on my blogging that I'm going back to May!!!!!  Yikes!  Well a 30th Birthday for sure deserves a shout out on the blog... better late than never!  We had such an amazing time celebrating your 30th Jen!!!!  Have we really known each other for 15 years????!!!  CRAZY!!!!!  I love you sooo much!!!!! 

 
 
 

June Pictures!

These pictures are back from June!  We met Robin and Carlitos for lunch on my 30th Birthday!!  Then we did some shopping and hit the splash pad for some fun! 

Having fun with chopsticks!   All 3 kids had a blast with them!  Now if only I could learn how to use them properly!!!! 

 

 

 

Hello!

What a slacker I have been this summer!  I have to say that we have had such a fun summer with our family and friends that I have not even had time to really sit down and update our blog. 

I have so much to update on the blog!  I am going to try and spend the next few days getting caught up from the summer!  So be prepared for picture overload!

I hope everyone has had an amazing summer!
