My Dad's Surprise 60th Birthday Party!

We had a surprise birthday party for my dad because he turned 60. He had NO idea and it was so fun! We had it in a dance studio with the Joe Muscolino band and ballroom dance instructors to dance with us! What a great night!

My mom and dad were so happy.

Getting crazy on the dance floor.

Me and my sister in law's. Well Amy on the very right isn't married into the family yet but she will be :) I love these girls. I love Kelli on the very left in her back bend. I guess more like hip bend.

This was one of the dance instructors. It was such a blast because he just told me what to do the whole time. This was probably the only time that I wasn't dancing like an idiot. Although my face looks awesome, don't you think?

We love you Dad!

This was so funny. My Dad was so embarrased. I have never seen him so shy before. I also love Kelli (my SIL) dancing. That was her all night. I love it.

Sam Starts Preschool!

Sam started preschool a few weeks ago. He was so excited talking about it but the day before, he was really nervous. He kept asking me if I could stay with him.
It is funny how different him and Danny are. Danny was SOOO ready for preschool. He just wanted to learn and wasn't nervous at all. That is partly because Danny didn't really even notice the other people at school.
Sam, on the other hand would be happy just staying at home and playing with friends all day. He would much rather play than sit down in a class and learn. I have a feeling he will be more of a free spirit in class.
He ended up really liking preschool. Everyday I ask him what he learned in class and he replies, "Snakes." They haven't talked about snakes at all. I love this boy.

This is a picture of the kids when Danny started school.

Sam and Elliott

Sam and his friend, Elliott started preschool on the same day. They go to a different school but I wanted to get a picture of the two of them.

A Girl's Dress...

can never be too poofy.

Or too bright.

In my opinion.

Loving every minute of this girl

Sarah makes me laugh more and more every day. She does the cutest things:

This is how I found her when she woke up the other day.

Sarah is not saying a lot of words but I always know exactly what she needs. Especially when she is hungry.

She just stands there with her mouth open until I put food in her mouth.

Sarah could sit and read all day and be happy. This is her at the library. She was so excited.



This is Sarah's reaction when I ask her to take a nap.
