Happy Birthday Adysen and Allie!!

Adysen and Allie left yesterday to spend some time with their grandparents. They will be gone on Allie's actual birthday, so we celebrated both their special days on Adysen's birthday - July 29th. We started out the day with some birthday pancakes...




and then we looked at baby pictures and talked about the events of the days when these sweet girls were born. As almost all of their baby pictures have been in storage for the past 2 years, looking at the baby pictures was really fun for the girls.

After that, there were some gifts to open...






Jason took the day off, so he had the chance to come with us to Adysen's diving class and watch her. After that, the girls chose Chili's for lunch and were given special birthday desserts. I didn't have my camera then, but we took pictures on Jason's cell phone - if I can figure out how to upload those, I will post them here! :) Next, we told the girls we had some "furniture shopping" to do, but we drove to Six Flags instead. They were SO surprised and SO excited as you can see here.




It was blazing hot, but the crowds were small and we had a wonderful day of fun at Six Flags. Adysen was scared of NOTHING and she was tall enough to ride everything and she and Jason had a great time riding the biggest and craziest rides there were!! Allie and I had fun on some smaller rides, but she did work up the courage to ride the Judge Roy Scream and loved it!!









We have a hard time believing that our little ones are 7 and 8 years old now, but we continue to be SOOO blessed and thankful to have them in our lives!!! Happy Birthday sweet girls!!

Now THAT is too funny...WE used to tell the kids that we were going furniture shopping & we'd surprise them with Six Flags for the day! Great minds think alike :)

Hard to believe the girls are all getting so big....
