Rio

Dancing starts at 24 seconds...be patient. :) Watch for Pryscilla's finger move! This song/movie is their favorite. They love it and it's the inspiration behind what will be their 2nd bday party. I'm just not sure where or when exactly the party will take place. Keep your calendars open around the 21st of November though!! Enjoy!

A Day At The Lake

We woke up to rain the other morning and Brian had a showing. Our family loves the rain and something about driving in it (when its not too bad) is fun for us. We love watching it, seeing everything wet, and the smell of it too. The girls were giddy right along with me, so I thought we'd jump in the truck and ride with Brian. Unlike most people, when it rains endorphins go off like crazy in our heads!! Since our big move we don't see much rain, so we get even more excited than usual every time a storm comes along. Sounds silly I know, but its the truth. That is one thing I really really miss about Houston, living closer to the coast we had a lot more rain. Now we live in a valley and somehow it always misses us.

We packed up for a drive to Somerville to show the property. Afterwards the rain had stopped for a bit, so I asked Brian to drive us up to the lake. It has been ages since I've been to Lake Somerville, in fact I don't ever remember going. I'm sure I did as a kid growing up in Sealy, but I don't remember. It was surprisingly pretty! We ventured to this small sandy beach with a few sparse picnic tables. I immediately had visions of the girls dressed in their adorable ruffle bathing suits walking around, splashing in the water, and digging in the sand. I realized then that they have never been to a beach yet. They went three times before they were born, but I guess that doesn't really count. I know we weren't at the ocean but to them it would work for their first "beach" experience. So we parked, Brian got out his fishing poll, and I got out my camera. Here are a few pictures of our day.

Pryscilla was in her own world digging in the sand and investigating rocks, while sweet Eden was trying to button her shirt.

then she was hugging her....

and finally kissing her. What a precious moment for all of us. Best friends for life.

Pryscilla has a little sand on her mouth from when she was sampling it.

Sand in her eyes :(

Pumpkin Patch

We ventured out to the pumpkin patch today. It was overcast and windy, a perfect fall day. The wind would blow and the twins would close their eyes and enjoy the cool air on their face, they were so adorable. I even happened to snap a picture of them with their eyes closed. ;)

Here are a few more from our shoot....

Brooke's Birthday

Our cousin Brooke and her husband Kenneth came over last Saturday to visit, while my sister was staying with us for the weekend.We went to Red Lobster for dinner and then had cake and ice cream back at the casa. Brooke is pregnant and just found out they are having a baby girl. I imagine many play dates since we live pretty close to each other now. She lookes adorable pregnant and is feeling well.

We all really enjoyed having my sister come and stay with us too. She is a fairly new teacher in Kingwood, so of course very busy. Anytime she has time we love spending it with her. We had a fun weekend and look forward to many more.

Me, Pryscilla, and Brian

Swinging

Here are the girls on September 21, 2010 swinging in Castlegate. They absolutely loved it. We all had huge smiles including other people out for a walk who joined in our fun.
