The twins turned the big O-ne on August 27th. We were GOING to throw them a big bash a la Hawaiian Luau like we had for Maddi. But, because our life is just like that, we couldn't. We had a minor catastrophe in our basement and spent the whole weekend tearing down walls, pulling up carpet, painting, and pretty much anything else you can think of with home improvement. Our renters LOVED us. We had to cancel the shindig and we had an impromptu little party. Here are the pictures!
The presents!
Emmy in a birthday outfit my sweet friend April gave them.
Ellie in her outfit.
We were trying to get some picture of them by their presents, but they were all over the place. This picture is a good summary of my current life.
Why not just let them chew on their presents?
I made them each a quilt and Emmy just LOVED hers (uh...I decided....based on this picture...)
Ellie coulda cared less.
Maddi and Andrew really got a kick out of the ball popper. Emmy and Ellie were content just to watch.
The fire scared them.
Digging in!
Ellie seemed to understand that it was food. Emmy sort of finger painted for awhile.
Ellie decided the best way to attack was to smash it.
Emmy: "Hey! What are you doing?"
Emmy pulled off "The Pedro".
Pedro also found the chocolate frosting DELICIOUS!
Ellie was just trying to get it off of her hands.
This works....
