Just when I thought these girls were being so good and playing so quietly together (Yep thats mascara!) Ali's little cousin Libby actually got it on the eyelashes- Ali needs a few more makeup lessons. LUCKILY it came out of Nicholes carpet only days before she turned her house over to the new owners.......
I cant believe my little baby is now 2 years old! She is full of spunk and energy and sweetness. She had a fun day and a great party with friends and family. Thank you everyone!!!!
Cole was terrified last time we tried to ride ponies... so he worked up the courage and went for it at the fair. Good job Cole!
They loved the kiddie rides and I think Chuck and I had more fun just watching them than if we were riding the rides ourselves.
Is he HAPPY?
SHY?
SAD?
The answer is probably all of the above! He had a great first day and he was excited to go back for day two. His teacher is great and it seems like a fun little class. Besides me crying after I hugged him goodbye.... I handled it quite well!We have been so busy this summer with company! We have loved every minute. We had my parents and grandparents in June, Chucks parents in July and my sister Brooke and her husband in August. If I was feeling homesick a few months back... Im definately cured! Here are some pictures of a fun thing we did with Brooke and Brian. 
We went on a ride with the Iditarod dogs that race every year. They train all year long and as part of training they do tours. It was a blast. The kids were loving it!
Here is Cole and Ali meeting the puppies (future race dogs) Cole wanted to take it home with him and Ali was so soft and gentle.
This was such a fun time and I wish I had done it with the rest of our family that came. But now I know for next time.
