Happy 9th Birthday Nadia!

Happy Birthday Nadia! We love you so much and are so blessed to have your as our daughter! You bring so much joy to our lives with you wit, wonder, strength and precious heart that wants to love others. You are a wonderful big sister to Amelie and Dani. You are a prolific creator of art and ideas. You want to know everything there is to know about science and especially the human body. You love stuffed animals more than any other toy. In the last year you have found that Taekwondo is your thing. I am constantly in awe of your ability and laser like focus to be the best. You are so fun to have conversations with and so often they catch me off guard with their depth. I love how you read new books and want me to read them too. We love you sweet girl!

Boo at the Zoo 2015

The rain finally let up late on Saturday night, so we were able to go to Boo at the Zoo after dropping my mom at the airport in the morning. We had a fun time collecting candy and checking out the animals. The zoo changed Boo at the Zoo again this year and didn’t have the big area with games for the kids to play. They had performers around the zoo and candy stations.

The big girls wanted to stop collecting candy for a bit and try the shooting gallery in Texas Town. Dani wanted to keep eating candy 🙂

Information phones inside the Museum of Living Art.

We had another fun time at the zoo. Mike was the overwhelming hit of the day as The Beast!

More with Nonnie

While Nonnie visited it continued to rain and rain and rain. So they played inside A LOT! Nonnie also took the girls and I shopping for treats.

At the store Dani found me and said, “Nonnie said I could buy dis!”

A visit from Nonnie is not complete without a trip to Target.

We also ate lots of good food while Nonnie was here. We stayed up late talking each night after the girls went to bed. Thanks for coming to visit mom – we love you!
