On Two Wheels...

Daddy took Ainslie to pick out her big girl bike on Sunday afternoon.  She was so excited!

Matilda at Starlight!

It's become a Summer tradition to take the girls to Starlight Theatre to see a musical.  This year we went to see Matilda and it was SO good!

 Excited for the show to start!

Opening Weekend at the Pool!

The Brookwood Farms pool opened Memorial Day weekend.  We spent a good part of Saturday and Sunday soaking up some sun and playing in the water!

American Girl!

My Mom and I took the girls to the American Girl store for the first time on Friday morning.  They took their American Girl dolls along for the trip.  We got their dolls ears pierced and had so much fun walking around the store!
