Come on in boy...

I heard this song today on the radio

(pause the music in the red box on the side of the blog first and then push play).

It made me think about the future, and who might be knocking on the door some day to take our daughters out on a date! At this point these are the gentlemen we have to watch out for!!! :)

Do not let their cute smiles fool you! :)

Phil doesn't own a gun by the way, but I loved the song...

But remember boys... Kenny can hook him up at any time!!! :)

Honestly, Phil and I can only hope that one or more of these boys have a continued interest in our girls. They all come from wonderful families, and we are so lucky to have such great friends!!

Progress Reports, "P+", and Proud Parents!

Emma got her first progress report sent home last week. Obviously in Y-5's they don't give out letter grades, so they use other letters to describe their progress. P=progressing well, M=making progress etc...

Emma received all "P's" which we think is pretty impressive! :) But Phil was extremely proud of her in one area in particular!

I think anyone who has ever met Emma isn't surprised by her high "P" marks in the area of Social development! :)

Look at all those "P+'s, although apparently she needs to step it up in the area of helping to clean up the toys! Maddie makes her do all the cleaning up around here, so I think she must take time off at school! :)

Here is where Phil is especially proud...Emma received a P+ in the area of "showing a sense of humor!" There is no doubt that she isn't lacking in personality! :)

It's been a while...

Well I guess it's been pretty disappointing for all my loyal blog readers lately. I apologize for my lack of commitment to the family blog. I was pressured into starting a facebook page, and well...that is just addicting!!! :)

Here are a few pictures I took of the girls last week. I'm not going to share all of them b/c I'm sure I'll end up using one for our Christmas card this year.

Surprise!!!

Last Saturday we celebrate my Grandma's 80th birthday with a surprise party in her honor. Everything went off without a hitch! Although, we didn't tell the girls about it until a few hours before the party (I think that helped!)

Thanks Aunt Lori, Aunt Shelley, and Dad for putting on a great party!

Waiting for GG to arrive!
SURPRISE!!!

(And yes..she brought Asiago Cheese to her own party, which she thought was going to be a small wine tasting party with some of my Aunt's friends!)
Hugs..all around!!

The rest of the afternoon was spent hanging around the lake. The girls enjoyed some quality time with my Uncle Jerry watching fish, and feeding the ducks left over garlic bread (which we think they really enjoyed! :)

Happy Birthday Grandma, we love you so much!!!
