Reno Trip

We took a weekend trip to Reno for Teresa's mother-in-law's memorial service.  It also happened to be Teresa's birthday, so we got to celebrate with her.

Teresa had LOTS of help blowing out her candles!


We had to visit Cabella's before heading home


Can you tell Trevin is VERY into showing muscles right now!?

Happy Halloween!

We had Superman (again), Batman (again) and a Princess this year.  Our superhero costumes have really received a lot of use!  The boys were going to be pirates...but changed their minds last minute.  We went to my work so the kids could show off their costumes and my co workers spoiled them!  We also visited Grampa, Grandma Mary and Myron and Esther.  We ended up going out to dinner at Red Robin on Halloween and it was super fun.  Everyone just LOVES seeing the kids all dressed up!

Kaila and Aron's Wedding

Our nanny Kaila got married on September 6th and the twins were in her wedding.  She has been their nanny since they were about 6 mo old so it was pretty special.  They love their "Lala"!  The wedding was beautiful and a lot of fun.  We're happy for Kaila and Aron and wish them well!  Things are always interesting with two 3 year olds...and when you throw in Orrin's new found "potty independence"...things get REALLY interesting!  Just before the ceremony was supposed to begin, Orrin decided he needed to go to the bathroom.  The bathroom was way up the hill and Orrin wouldn't let me do anything.  It was painful how SLOWLY he undid his pants, etc.  I'm sure that it really wasn't all that long but knowing we were holding things up made it seem like forever!  Luckily Kaila knows the twins pretty well and all was well.  During the reception, someone came and found me to report that my little boy was locked in the bathroom.  Orrin had decided to go by himself and then locked the door but couldn't figure out how to unlock it.  Poor kid was pretty upset!  I couldn't talk him through it so went to find the venue owner to get a key.  Owner didn't think he had a key.  Luckily Papa showed up at the scene and could get Orrin calmed down enough to walk him through unlocking the door.  Things are NEVER boring!!











 















First Day of Preschool

Orrin and Elena started preschool this week and I can't even begin to tell you how excited they were!  They got to have their very own "pac-packs" and lunch boxes.  There was no clinging to Mom or tears.  It was WAY harder for Mama to let her babies go!  I am so glad that they get to go...they are loving it!


Walking to their classroom

Big hugs!  So sweet!
