Happy Birthday Heidi!

Per Heidi's request Dorothy setup a super fun 2nd birthday party at Chuck-E-Cheese. :)

Reagan loved Chuck E Cheese so much that we can't wait to see what she thinks of Mickey Mouse in October!


Reagan's favorite ride was Barney. This show drives me crazy and we never watch it so I don't know why she loves him so much but she sure does! lol :) We spent most of the day enjoying the company of this wonderful purple dinosaur... lol :)

Hugging Barney

Giving Barney "5"
Reagan figured out how to operate the ride on her own
Does life get any better???

Heidi decided to try a turn on Barney too
but she took a little more convincing and we think Grandma Jolene may have enjoyed it more. :)
Reagan took a very short break from Barney to try a ride with Chuck E Cheese.
Reagan also took another quick break from Barney (with much coaxing from Daddy) to try out "Whack-A-Mole" for the first time.

Uncle David was awesome and volunteered to hold Kennedy much of the time so Tim and I could chase Reagan and take lots of pictures. Thanks so much Uncle David!
Daddy and his girls :)
Hugs for a birthday girl!
Happy Birthday Heidi and thanks so much for including us in all the fun!

Best Friends :)

After our weekend in Lexington Grammy and Pa took us back to Tennessee so we could have Kennedy's 3 month picture made. We had a great time and as always appreciated the ride! Thanks for everything Grammy and Pa!

Reagan and Kennedy were able to enjoy a couple of days of fun with Chaz and Anna again. In the picture below Kelly gave Chaz one of Anna's doll's pacifiers since all three girls were insisting on having theirs. lol :) Chaz is such a good big brother and friend!

Best Friends - Tentative hugs?

Thanks for having us over so much! We sure can't wait to live closer to you guys so we can hang out more often!!!

Great Grandpa and Grandma Gensler

While we were in Tennessee we were able to visit Great Grandpa and Grandma Gensler several times. This was the first time they had met Kennedy as they were in Michigan the last time we were in Tennessee.
~
The first evening we visited was Presidents Day. Great Grandma met us at the door saying her friends would never believe her dinner guests for Presidents Day were Reagan and Kennedy. lol :)

Thank you to Grammy and Grandma Pat for Kennedy and Reagan's cute patriotic clothing respectively! :)

We also went out to breakfast at IHOP one morning. Thank you to Aunt Arla for the sweet matching pink dresses! :)
Reagan doing her best to pose beautifully for the camera - NOT!




We're looking forward to seeing you again soon!

Here are a few more pictures from our February trip to Tennessee.

We took lunch to Grammy a couple of days while we were visiting and the girls had fun exploring the classroom. Thank you to Grandma Pat for their matching pink dresses! :)

I love Sonic Lime Slushes but we don't have any Sonics close to us. :( Everytime we're in Tennessee I take the opportunity to enjoy as many as I can. :) Reagan also enjoys the slushes and so we decided to get her her very own Rt 44 Lime Slush. You can see she enjoyed it! :)

What a helpful big sister wiping baby Kennedy's nose!
