Road Trip to Reading, MA

Sorry this posting is late, but it's been a crazy week.  Anyway, last weekend we packed up the car and headed up to Massachusetts to visit The Dyment's!  I was SUPER nervous about the 8 hour car ride,but the girls did great...Even Kayla!  On the way up, it ended up being a 9 hour ride since we hit some traffic.  Kayla and Ella actually slept through most of it.  Ella was so excited to get there and see Aunt Cheley, Uncle Mike and the girls.  They played great all weekend and Kayla didn't get into too much she wasn't supposed to.  We left Monday morning around 6:00 am and this time the ride was only 8.5 hours, but we had more potty breaks and took longer for lunch.  The trip went so well, we're going to do it again this summer.  Enjoy some of the pictures from our weekend. 

On the way up...Ella playing with her laptop and watching a DVD. 

Since Ella took a nap on the way up in the car we put her to bed late.  The next day she was so tired, she fell asleep while watching a show on the couch. 

Kayla loved their playroom and coloring at the little table. 

Dancing around the living room. 

Everyone in the backyard.

Bye-Bye Dyment's...We Will Miss You!

Yesterday Mike, Michele, Sarah and Taylor packed up and moved to Boston.  We will really miss you guys!  Here are a few pictures of Ella and the girls hugging, not good-bye, but see you soon!

Not very safe, but Kayla loves it! 

Right after I took this picture the shopping cart fell forward, Kayla landed right on her face and then she got right up and climbed in there again!  She's fearless and LOVES to climb on anything!

Ella's Birthday Party at the Farm

Yesterday we had Ella's 3rd birthday party at Clark's Farm.  We invited all her friends from school and of course, Sarah and Taylor.  She had so much fun seeing her friends and getting to see, feed and even hug the animals!  Sometimes she was a little rough, but she was only trying to love them. 

Feeding the goat. 

Reaching through the fence, putting her arms around the goat's neck to pull it close enough to kiss!  Our tour guide said the goats didn't have teeth on the top, but I was still worried she would get hurt or hurt them! 

The tour guide said the baby ducks were very dirty and you shouldn't touch your face or mouth after petting them and to wash your hand right after. 

I guess Ella didn't think that meant she couldn't kiss them! 

After she was yelled at for trying to kiss the duck!

Ella and her friends from school on the tractor for the hayride. 

Kayla was wiped out and fell asleep in the stroller like this! 

We didn't have enough time at the farm to open her presents, so after a tubby she was so excited to see what she got!

Sarah and Taylor's 2nd Birthday Party

Yesterday was Sarah and Taylor's birthday party. Ella had a great time playing with all the girls. We tried to get a picture of all them...This was the best we could do!

Dinner with the Dyment's

Last night the Dyment's came over and made us dinner! It was delicious and the girls had a lot of fun playing together. As you can see Ella and Taylor liked jumping on the couch and sort of wrestling with each other.

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!!
