First day of school

I can't believe I have a first grader... Sophia was so excited to start school! It had been a long summer and I think we all had our fill of each other. She came back the first day happy and wanting to go back. She has a wonderful teacher and has made many new friends. Sophia has traded in her ballet shoes for pom poms and is a Mustang Cheerleader...pic to be posted soon.

Ashlyn is so cute. I was nervous to take her to her first day of Preschool because of all the crying and separation issues she had with Mother's day out. She did fabulous and made the transition to big girl school very easy on mommy. She loves school and ask everyday if it is time to go back, which make me so happy!

Holiday World

Ashlyn is going to be trouble...I can just tell!!!

We took the girls to Holiday World for their last outing before school. The weather was beautiful and they could ride almost everything...we finished the day with the water park and the next week they were off to school!

Birthday's, Birthday's. Birthday's!

Summer is busy as far as birthday's for the Young's...Toby's b-day is in June, followed by the girls in July with Popa's, then Uncle Luke's and lastly mine!

The girls are 6 and 3!

The girls had a Hello Kitty party if you cannot tell! The had their party at Incredible Dave's a jumping and game establishment. They had all of their closest friends, played games, ran through an obstacle course and jumped on inflatables until they were nice and sweaty!

Destin 2011

We are back at Destin for our annual family vacation...the water was so beautiful and sand soo white! Below is the girls sand castle they help Daddy build.

Here we are at Baytowne Wharf. There many things to do there and we did it all. Mimi and Aunt Jill made a rock video, Sophia zip lined, surfed and rolled around in a life size hamster ball!

Ashlyn...my bathing beauty!

Sophia in the hamster ball below...she spent more time falling then up and running!

Gotta love those cheeks...we are not sure where the booty comes from, but I love every inch of it. Laura and I spent the entire summer at the pool pulling her bottoms over her booty, vacation was no different. Mimi just stepped in where Laura and I left off!

Sophia boogie boarding...she did very well for her first time.

Whose kids are these?

Destin 2011

Gangs all here...here is the Destin crew. We spent all day at the beach and every night out for dinner. I love vacation!

Sophia's dance recital

Sophia completed another year of dance...she has had her fill and we have since moved on to cheerleading. Ashlyn has picked up where she left off and is obsessed with dance.
