Long time no talk....Pictures are more fun (and faster for me) than words so I'll run through the last few months as quickly as I can :)
We wrapped up summer with a cook out at friends house
And we happily started 1st grade for Maddy and the last year of preschool for Camryn
Cash wanted in on the picture too
Camryn drew a picture of her family.
Matt and I went to a wedding and then out in Old Town Alexandria one night, we had such a nice time!!
The wedding venue was beautiful
Daddy took the baby dolls to work one day per Maddy's request.
Camryn having fun on the playground while Maddy has soccer practice. Camryn does gymnastics and Maddy is doing soccer, Daisies, after school Zumba, and gymnastics. (she just recently decided to stop gymnastics which will be a nice break for her...she sure is a busy girl!)
As if the kids activities don't keep us busy enough along with our increasingly demanding jobs, we tore our house apart...this is our Laundry room.
I went on a field trip for Cams and got to keep track of these 3 crazy girls.
I kept the girls entertained for about 10 min. with this beauty spa kit...what followed was shrieks about their eyes burning...not sure they understand how to wash your face yet so maybe it wasn't worth the 10 minutes of time it bought me haha.
And this was our "bathroom"
We had some ants that decided they wanted to be part of our family...Camryn had no problem vacuuming them up as they entered the house.
We went and saw Storks with some friends
Maddy made a dress out of napkins.
Camryn still refuses to wear pants or shorts to gymnastics
With full time jobs and busy lives our renovation has taken months. It's currently Nov. 9th and we should have our renovation complete by Friday 11/11 (except the shower glass which should come in the next week or two).
Maddy kicked booty in soccer this season. She has gotten a goal in each of her last 3 games! Her last game is this Saturday and I can't wait to see her play. With Mat renovating I've had to juggle my time between the playground with Camryn and the side lines.
We walked to soccer practice before it started getting to dark (well, some of us walked)
My cutie on Picture Day.
The girls were in my cousin Garretts wedding in October at Lake Anna. They were adorable, the wedding was great, we got to see lots of family we don't ever get to see, and we spent the weekend at Lake Anna!
Garrett and Aunt Vicki
My cousin Danny.
My cousin Troy and his wife Laura
Camryn had her tongue out the whole time, it was adorable and hilarious.
The girls spent tons of time fishing with Aunt Anna. They even got to stay at the lake a few hours longer to do some extra fishing while Matt and I headed home to do a few things.
Maddy got to go to the pumpkin patch with her friends.
Maddy said she was ready for picture day!
Cash wouldn't move when I tried to make the bed.
We carved pumpkins...the girls did it all on their own.
While dad and Matt worked on the laundry room.
I love finding selfies on my phone.
I completely forgot about the Vienna Halloween parade and the girls were bummed (mom fail) so we went to free face painting night at Glory Days instead.
The girls went to Delaney's "make your own stuffed animal" birthday party.
Laundry room progress.
Maddy planted a pumpkin plant at some point in our front mulch bed and a pumpkin grew!
Bathroom progress
Halloween day at school
Camryn's class was Green Eggs and Ham for their school parade.
My little gum ball fairy
Little red riding hood.
Thanks to Gammy staying behind to hand out candy we were able to all go trick or treating together!
Laundry room progress
Bathroom progress
we had to tile this floor twice due to an uneven floor the first time, not fun!!
Camryn now eats lollipops with her toes.
and continues to take beautiful selfies.
Maddy's first grade picture.
Us last night...all up watching the news as it was 11/8/16, election day!
And Camryn's school picture...I'm not sure why it looks pink and her hair looks read, but hey she's cute no matter what!
We have fall sports winding down, our renovation coming to an end and the start of the holiday season. and we're going to DISNEY!!!!! It may be awhile until I post again but I'm hoping to share some super fun pictures and recap of our vacation!
