Tweetsie 2013

This is our 2nd annual trip to Tweetsie!  It is a new tradition for us and we love it!!  This year it happened to be when Dora & Diego were there!  Piper was SO excited!!  (thanks grandma for the hats!!)

Izzy is mesmerized by the show on the train!  She got scared by an Indian even though M tried to warn her

We bought a new (to us!) stroller for Cassidy.  It worked wonderfully!  She loved riding in it and took a couple naps in it too!

that smiley tongue!!

Me & Cassidy on the chair lift- followed by Tim & Piper

The girls enjoyed the rides…..

Izzy was tall enough for the big kid rides and she rode all of them!  She LOVED the free fall!

The kids enjoyed the Dora & Diego show- it was packed!!

Loved going with the J family!  We have such a great time together!!

These two are a trip!

Tim took the girls on the ferris wheel & they had a blast!

Last train ride of the day!

Went to Golden Corral for dinner- this little girl LOVES that they have a dessert she can have!!

Cassidy was such a trooper!  She didn’t fuss and seemed to enjoy all the new sights!

Flash back to our trip last year…. boy they have grown!!

Visit to see Cousin Penny!

This past weekend we went to see Cousin Penny for her birthday!  The had a blast playing with her and catching up!  The waterslide was a hit!

Being introduced to the Anderson fascination with fire!

Picnics!

Both girls had a lot of fun playing with the doggies!

Grandma & Henry taking a nap

Sunday was Penny’s party!  Lots of little girls everywhere!!

We had a short visit to the beach.  Izzy LOVED it and Piper was a little more reserved but they both had fun!  Me & Cassidy hung out under the canopy

Half-buried Izzy!

 

Piper lounging in the stroller for a walk

Both girls enjoyed holding Mic’s leash on the walk

The girls had a sleepover in Penny’s room Saturday night which made for an after 10 o’clock asleep time….. so Piper snuggled up with Tim for a Sunday afternoon nap

We had an awesome time!  Cassidy napped like a champ in Henry’s swing.  Everyone had fun holding her and talking to her too!

Grandparent Weekend!

Tim’s mom & my dad came this past weekend.  Izzy had her last soccer game and award ceremony.  She was SO happy to have both of them here to watch her!

Izzy played great!  Cassidy was happy with Grandma Diane!

Later that day my dad & I took the big girls to the pool for the first time this season!

Took them awhile to get used to swimming again…. but they had a blast with Grandpa!

That afternoon we went to Izzy’s soccer award ceremony.  She got a shiny new red soccer ball.  She asked me on the way home what she was going to polish it with   Another funny Izzy quote regarding soccer was I asked her if she was going to do soccer next year and she told me “Nope.  I did something you wanted me to do-soccer.  Next I’m going to do something I want to do- cheerleading!”  So we are going to try out Upwards Cheerleading next year. 

Fun picnic after the award ceremony.  We had such a fun time!!
