Uncle Douglas is such a good Uncle. He told the girls a long time ago about how our Dad made us stilts when we were little. They were SOOO excited. They haven’t quite mastered them yet but their getting better! Great to see the cousins.
Christmas at the McKinney’s is always fun but we missed Zach who had the flu. The girls were very excited about their stuffies. They were very into bunnies and penguins this year. But the big hit was the surprise roller skates! They had to immediately put them on and start stumbling around. I am happy to report they can both now roller skate.

Hannah just can’t stand to wait to give her presents she gets so excited. And as you can see Katie LOVED her video game membership which Mommy usually outlaws. 😉

As usual the Hamby thanksgiving is full of laughter and smiles not to mention great food. But another fun little benefit is all three girls Katie, Hannah & Taylor have birthdays within a week of Thanksgiving so they always get a little birthday party bonus! Happy birthday girls!
Another one of my favorite Halloween activities. A pretty warm day so it made it a no mess activity which is even better and Cousin Lacey was home to join in too!
Hannah just couldn’t stand to wait to carve her pumpkin after we left the farmer’s market with our huge hall. So I let her carve just a little one to get her by till a little closer to Halloween. 🙂
One of my absolute favorites. I just get so tickled at the girls riding the rides and playing the games. Oh and the snacks aren’t bad either. We were bad and checked the girls out a little early from school so we didn’t have to fight the crowds. 🙂 Lacey joined us this year for the fun!
So sweet and so sad. Our first real death other than finding stray frogs or worms on the sidewalk that we felt compelled to give a proper burial and prayer. The girls left the cage lid off and I guess Sunni thought Hermy was a good chew toy. She didn’t kill him only broke his shell and main claw that he only made it a couple of days after that… Hannah was very sad. God bless her sweet little heart. Notice her get well card by his new separate cage so the other crabs couldn’t hurt him in his weakened condition.
The floating bait shack. Yes only Uncle Douglas would think of something this ingenious!

Nothing better than a good water balloon fight to kick off spring. Little bestie Lily joins in the fun. And Lacey and I TRY to stay dry… We aren’t as crazy as they are… 😉
