Gone Missing

Yep, I've gone missing. It's been one of those years. I thought it was supposed to get easier as the twins got older, but instead I've found other ways to stay insanely busy. There's PTO, Girl Scouts, Adia's basketball, volunteering in Adia's classroom, yearbook and also all the stuff at home. And now we're under 7 inches of snow...yes, 7 inches of powdery snow that's supposed to hang out for a few days. That's unheard of for us, but I'm dreading the next couple days when it partially melts and refreezes and then is followed by freezing rain. Hello ice storm... again... I'll never forget skating to class 10 years ago.

So here's the highlight reel of the last 5 months or so.

July -
We went camping. Adia had fun, Leia doesn't like sleeping in a tent, and Mira puked all over herself while waiting for fireworks, twice. Unky Eck came back from 2 years in Mongolia so they were psyched to see him.



Then it was back home for the twins' birthday party.

Blueberry Pie for Mira and chocolate cake with strawberry frosting for Leia.

August -
Gramma and Papa sold their house on the coast and moved inland. They're about 35min away from us now and the girls love their new town, the fruit trees, huge park and lots of places to walk.



The girls also took swimming lessons, but I'm not sure they actually got anything out of it.


And Adia did a basketball camp where she learned to dribble and discovered she could shoot.


September-
 It was back to school in September. Adia started first grade and both twins were finally in preschool.


We had some nice play dates before the rain started again.
