S'more summer fun...

Fireplace s'mores?  A fabulously messy treat!

Eat your fruits and veggies!

Eating your fruits and veggies is much more fun when they fit on the end of your fingers.  These girls love their raspberries--both to wear and to eat. 

Kate did a little experimenting to see if her broccoli could serve as finger jewelry as well.  Maybe not quite as good of a fit as the raspberries, but she was happy nonetheless...

And, what makes eating your veggies more fun than growing them yourself first?  These girls have always loved tomatoes, and think nothing is cooler than being able to go out to our backyard to "harvest" them for a snack!

Our little Jedi

In the process of Anna's little friend Jackson turning 5, Anna became a certified Jedi!  One of the coolest birthday parties ever--Anna went through the paces, and finally earned her Jedi credentials.  And, of course, Kate was more than happy to come along and do a little "partying" with her Jedi sister.

Sleepover, Part II

The sleepover fun continues!  After winding down after swimming, sleeping through the night (woo-hoo!), they woke up the next morning to play dress-up and make sparkly flip-flops.  Overall, a huge maiden voyage sleepover success!

First sleepover!

Anna had her first friend spend the night last summer, and of course it was her BFF for her whole life, Ava.  They had fantastic time...swimming in the pool, making sponge water balls, eating pizza, etc.  They were even so sweet to Kate and included her in all of their "big girl" fun!

Budding artists

Anna thought doing a little face-paint-turned-body-paint would be fun, and so Kate of course immediately wanted to join in the fun.  They had a blast, and did a pretty good job of sister-decorating!

Party girls

Oh the joys of Saturday afternoon birthday parties.  Especially when they involved a park AND Tumblebus.  Happy girls.
