{Harper's 4th Birthday Party}
We love having friends so close in age! We got to experience the Sweet & Sassy birthday party for the first time celebrating our good friend Harper. The girls liked dressing up, getting their hair, makeup & nails done, & dancing on the little stage! They are still talking about the fun things they got to bring home in their goodie bags.
She very naturally let them do her makeup & nails at the same time!
Happy girls!
{Ringling Bros. Barnum & Bailey Circus}
I thought it would be fun to take the girls to the circus! I bought tickets for a time when Justin wasn't able to go, so Auntie K came with us. We had a lot of fun watching all the crazy stunts! I should have researched the circus a bit more before I told the girls there would be elephants, though... It was fun to see the tigers & the dogs & all the other things! And somehow I was able to walk away without buying too many crazy expensive things.
Okay, we did get these sparkly star wands!!
{The Olympic Games in Rio}
We got into the Olympic spirit at our house! Mommy was really the one most excited... Mimi had helped the girls make these light up Olympic torches using an LED tea light candle and I enlisted the help of Nora to make Olympic gold medals. I made a Brazilian dish that I now cannot remember the name of for dinner & we watched the opening ceremony! Or rather... I watched it and the girls began to lose interest and start playing elsewhere. But it was fun nonetheless!
Janie wins the gold!
Nora did not feel up to participating in this picture...
{Jumping in Muddy Puddles}
One day it was rainy & we got the idea to go on a walk in the rain. It was really sprinkling at most but it was a good excuse to put on our rain boots, use our cute matching umbrellas, & jump in some puddles. We walked around the entire neighborhood, which took a lot longer than I had anticipated. The girls had fun, though! I learned that Nora likes to find muddy puddles and Janie likes to actually jump in them.
{Longhorn Football Begins}
We love that the football season has begun! We watched the first Texas football game this season against Notre Dame and loved it. Our horns played well, it was exciting throughout, and the girls were great sports with their pom poms and singing of the "Eyes of Texas". We are excited for the rest of football season!
Looking good in burnt orange!
{Officially Matron of Honor}
It's official! I get the honor of standing next to Krista when she marries Michael next year. I am super excited to watch her begin the journey towards marriage!
September is already here! It's probably even more busy than August, so check back in October for more updates.
