Carnival Fun

We went to the Arbutus Carnival last week with the Henry's. The kids had fun, especially Hayden and Francesca. They rode all the rides while Anna and Kylie watched the action from the stroller. Maybe next year they can ride the rides. Anna and Kylie show off the prizes their dad's won for them.

Potty Time!

Anna has shown some interest in the big girl potty so she's been checking it out lately. Francesca is so cute, telling her what to do and promises to give her treats if she goes. Anna on her new potty.

Shore Time with Daddy

Kevin went to the shore with us last weekend. Francesca was so excited to show him around and to show him how well she swims in the water. Daddy and his girls.

Happy 4th of July!

We had a very busy 4th of July weekend. We started off with a cookout at the Mansolillo's house on Friday. The kids had a blast. Jack in his swing.

Jack has a really cool roller coaster that Francesca LOVED! She got on a thousand times!

Then on Saturday we woke up bright and early to watch Ms. Melissa and Ms. Ali run by our house in the Firecracker 10K. After that we went to the soapbox races and played some games at Arbor Manor. We went to the Arbutus and Catonsville parades which the girls loved then to the Henry's for a cookout, and topped off the day with some fireworks. Whew! I get tired just thinking about it.
