Array of Pictures

I haven't had much time to keep up with this so I'm throwing a bunch of random pictures up. They range from Maya's bday, grandma and grandpa's visit, Bren's halloween party, earrings... you know just an array of stuff. We're heading to the Nash after trick o treating, so it's very unlikely you'll see any halloween pictures til next week.

Happy Princess Birthday

I just wanted to add some pictures from Maya's birthday party this past weekend. The girls went to a hair salon and got updo's and fingernails painted. I think they all had fun. Hard to believe she's 5 already. Enjoy.

Random Days

It's been a couple weeks since I've added anything... sorry. I even had most of last week off. We've been keeping pretty busy, as always. The kids started their soccer/basketball clinic on saturday mornings. It's nice to sit back and watch them both act in an activity together.
Last week was Fire Safety week, so Maya got to go to the fire station. She was pretty upset that Sparky, the dog, was out for the day. We had a birthday party at McDonald's last week. Future note... do not do this... especially around lunchtime on a day when all kids are off school. The kids loved it of course, but I always am hunting through the screaming kids to make sure mine are acting decent.
We had some friends over friday for a night of RockBand. Oh yes, everybody sang! While the adults played, the kids got into play make-up and hairclips and came down glamorous. It was pretty funny.
Saturday I got to go shopping with a friend... which was a blast. It's been awhile since I went out with a shopping buddy. Wall Street should make a comeback after our shopping trip to help the economy. That night the family went to the hockey game. It was really fun. I hadn't been to see the Rivermen forever. The kids thought it was great.
So we are looking at mid-October already. Hard to believe I Maya will already be 5 saturday! She wants to get her ears pierced for her bday. So that is the plan. We are having her bday party the following week. We're doing a tinkerbell/princess party at a salon. Fingernails, princess updo's... hopefully it'll be a fun day.
