She Treats Me Well

I was sitting in the living room on the couch. It had been a hard day. One of those "I'm not sure I'm going to make it" days, and in she walks with this creation. She knows I love chocolate strawberries and grapes. And she wanted to make sure I was happy. How can I not be??

Keeping Myself Busy

This was Shane's first weekend with the girls. Or Diana's, more like it. Anyway. I hung out with my sisters. And made sure I looked ready to go out when Shane came by the house.

We ate at Legends, all us little people. Sat in a booth with plenty of room. :)

Flying Saucers

I obviously didn't take these pictures. They wouldn't even exist if I had been monitoring this situation! But Eddie was in charge, and Eddie captured the moment.

Eddie, I played with the images. I added vibrance to make up for the dreary day, and did some cropping. I also added movement to some of Grace's, just because I wanted to isolate her facial expressions! The fast shutter speed you used really stopped the action and captured them in mid-flight - I love that! I think it's funny that Faith is just as calm and composed as could be - even when her body is as horizontal as the tree in the background. It's like danger is her thing!

Toothless Grin

After a huge day winner her meet, Faith lost her first tooth! The tooth Fairy brought her a wedding girl barbie doll :)

My Amazing Babies in the Gym

Super Stars, yeah, that's what they are!

In their first state-wide gymnastics meet, Faith placed first and Grace placed second!!!

Faith received the overall highest score on the floor (all levels and ages) and Grace received the overall highest score on the beam (all levels and ages) That's truly amazing, considering there were high school girls competing!

Hanging out at Happy Joe's with Jessie and Eddie . . . those balls were flying everywhere!

Ice Skating Downtown

After perhaps one of the most stressful days of my life, I took the girls ice skating downtown, and my whole spirit was changed. We had a fantastic time. We did a good job. And we promised each other we'd be ok :)
