A little of this, a little of that

I have been a terrible blogger lately.... I suppose this just happens as we get busier and busier with life. Anyway, we had some good friends over for dinner about a week ago. We had a great time and I just loved see all the kids interact! They all played so well together. Here is a picture of Britt and I. I swear I am not fat, it's just the shirt, which I vow to NEVER wear again!!!


This is their adorable 7 month old baby. He is so fun to suggle with!!!
A group shot will all the kids. They have three kids, including twins
born 6 weeks after Lucy and Ava!
Hahaha... Okay, no we are not lushes, I swear! We noticed that we have about 14 bottles of whiskey in our alcohol cabinet so Chris decided that he wanted to have a blind whiskey tasting. So one night we did just that! The result? Number one is a 21 year old bottle of Glenfiddich. Number two was a brand called Lismore. The rest just didn't compare. LOL
We took the girls horse riding at one of Chris' firefighter's homes. Madeline had a blast, as always, and even the twins had fun. We were freezing by the end of the day though... It was early in the morning and only about 40 degrees out. BRRRRRRRRR....

Bailey is such a tolerant dog. The other night I was cooking dinner and I heard Ava say, "come on Lucy, let's slide down Bailey!".... I watched what they were doing then quickly went to get my camera. Bailey sat there so patiently as the girls used her back as a slide. LOL This is really the best dog ever! I will forever be a doberman girl. :)

Lucy and Ava have been talking about going to ballet for weeks. So, when I stumbled upon these cute dresses at TJ Max the other day I couldn't resist! They have since worn them every day and practiced dancing ballet! I hope that these cute dresses will satisfy their desire for lessons. (which would cost us $85 a month... ouch!)

Lucy, my little comedian, was practicing ballet the other day kept trying on different hats. "look momma, I'm a cowboy ballerina!" Sooo cute. I just love to soak in the sweetness of these kids.
