A day at the zoo with friends!

We had a great day at the zoo today. We got to watch a new show that they put on and Kaley got picked as a volunteer. I was shocked that she went up on stage but not shocked that she held a HUGE python! For some reason this girl loves snakes. She definitely didn't get that from her mommy but anytime we go to the zoo her favorite part is getting to pet the snakes and I usually have to drag her away. Thanks Granny and Pop for our membership! We love the zoo!

Circus fun!

This was Kaley's 2nd year to go to the circus and Jaelynn's 1st. It was a
late night but we had a great time. Times like these just reinforce to me how blessed we are! I am so thankful for my sweet family and the means to enjoy things like the circus. Thank you Lord for all that you provide!

Pretty Princesses

Dress-up is by far the girls favorite thing to do.  The other day when we were out running errands we saw these princess Halloween costumes.  I think the girls are going to be Sleeping Beauty and Belle for Halloween but we couldn't resist getting Rapunzel and Merida (Brave) costumes mainly because they came with wigs and a girl can never have too many dress up clothes! 

Summer Fun

The girls absolutely LOVE when their Uncle Lee comes to visit!  They always have a great time playing with him and this last time was no exception.  We took a trip to a new splash and this mommy was very happy to sit on the side and take pics as the girls played with Uncle Lee and Sarah.

Playing the giant xylophone.

I am not sure who had more fun...the girls or Lee and Sarah!

Trying to catch the water!

Prima-Ballerinas

Last year Jaelynn had to sit in the lobby every Friday evening for an hour and 15 mins while her big sister got to dance.  Well, not this year!  The girls started dance tonight and not only does Jaelynn finally get to dance like her big sis but WITH her big sis.  Yup, you read that right, they are in the same class.  It is just about more cuteness than this mommy can handle.  They both did a great job and after class the instructors even complimented us on how good Jaelynn was at only 2!  They both did a great job and I think all of Kaley's at home dance lessons with sister to get her ready for today really paid off!  They both participated in most of the dancing but Jaelynn's attention was shot after an hour.  They did a couple dances that Kaley did last year in dance and I was impressed with how well she remembered them.  I am pretty sure I was more excited than they were about today but they sure did have fun!  Now for a little lot of cuteness!
