4 Miraculous years!


Happy Birthday to our twins, Emily and Ethan!! 


 A tradition we started in our family when Madisen was young was to wake the birthday person up with breakfast in bed. But we changed it up a bit this year and did donuts instead... As if we weren't getting enough sugar in the day from the cake, ice cream and candy...Hey! let's add donuts to it too! Geesh. Who's idea was that??!

Oh yeah. Mine. Oops.

Emily had pre-school today and I got the chance to come to her class with treats and she felt so special handing them all out to her classmates. 

Emily was super patient waiting for Daddy to get home from work so we could open presents and have cake and ice cream.

For the last month she has been talking about wanting a Spiderman cake and I was thinking, "How am I going to make that??" But then just 2 days before her birthday she tells me instead she wants a rainbow cake. YES! Now, rainbow I can do! A Spiderman cake would have been tricky, but rainbow is definitely manageable! It didn't turn out like I pictured but she liked it and that's all that matters!




She got this great gift from Uncle Nate and Aunt Erin but couldn't open it till Dad got home but the box it came in was pretty darn cool too. It became her "car". I was joking around with her telling her she can't drive yet! She thought that was so funny and got a bad case of the giggles.
Finally! Dad's home and we can open presents!




Super stoked about a gift!


Thanks Nate and Erin! Monster puppets!


Thanks to all her grandparents for the wonderful and thoughtful gifts! 
The girls love their presents! And were totally spoiled!!



Time for Cake? 

Yes please!

Emily had a great birthday and I hope she knows just how much we all love her. 

Happy Birthday Emily and Ethan!!!
