Twins!

We finally got to meet the newest members of our family:  twins Harper and Connor!  We drove down to Chapel Hill for the day to snuggle with the twins and catch up with their mommy and daddy (Caroline and Kyle).  It's hard to believe these little babes are 6 months old already!  O and E loved "holding" them.  Emery got very upset when Pat and I held them!  She wasn't afraid to shed a few tears!  We can't wait to see them again soon!





Fun at the Farm...Owen's 4th Birthday Party!

This year Owen wanted to have his birthday party at a farm.  More specifically, he wanted to ride horses at his party.  We called several local farms around town and decided on Still Water Farm.  Of course, on the day of the party, it was freezing cold!  However, the children seemed to enjoy themselves.  They went on a hayride, rode a horse, brushed a pony, sang along with special music from Mr. Rich, and ate pizza and cake.  Everyone had a great time!  Thanks to all of our friends and family who were there to celebrate!























Happy, happy birthday sweet boy!  We love you!!!

Happy Birthday, Owen!

Today, our first love turned 4!  We cannot believe how fast these 4 years have gone by!  We remember the day like it was yesterday.  Born at 7:08 pm, 7 pounds, 10 ounces.  



 This past weekend we celebrated YOU all weekend!  We took you to your first NCSU football game:


 


 



 


 Then to Monkey Joe's:

 Then out to dinner and over to Nanny and Pops' house for dessert and your birthday present:

This morning, we celebrated your birthday at school. We brought cinnamon buns and fruit for breakfast, and made "birthday cakes" with fun art supplies!

 
Tonight, we ate your favorite foods for dinner (chicken, mac and cheese, and grapes).  Daddy surprised you with cupcakes from your favorite bakery, however, you decided on a Reese's cup instead because you aren't a huge fan of sweets.  

 

 
Emery loved singing "Happy Birthday" to you!



Then it was time for your presents!
 We love you, sweet boy!  You will always be our favorite little boy!  We hope you had the best birthday yet!
 
This weekend we will continue your birthday celebration with your friends at the farm!
