Yogurt!!!

A couple of weeks ago, our friends and almost relatives, Steve and Emily, posted about their little boy Sam eating yogurt. We had the same experience tonight with Brooklyn (who is just a couple of months younger than Sam) and thought we'd share and let Steve and Emily know that they're not alone when it comes to kids eating yogurt and making major messes!




Even though she's a mess, she's still cute!

Brooklyn's birthday was fun! I still can't believe she's 1...CRAZY!!
She loved her cake!


And I got this cute picture...


...which reminded me of this picture of Ben from his first birthday...


Cute, huh? They are definitely related...look at those noses!

And last week, there was this crazy big windstorm that went straight down Main Street in Richmond. And yes, we live on Main Street. It was blowing so hard! Some people saw a little funnel cloud...yikes! We watched from the kitchen as Jaicee (my sister-in-law) barely made it into the shed before she was blown away with Daphne (her baby). There was debris and branches everywhere...

up the street...


next door...


our tree... (I know, not as impressive, but we really are grateful that it wasn't worse.)


and here's a picture of a huge pine tree that snapped in half down the street...sad...


And then, not two hours later, almost every branch was cleaned up. That's how the amazing people of Richmond are. We live in a great place!

And of course, I can't have a blog post without some cute pics of the kids...

wrestling...


They're so funny.

And Ben said to me one day, "Look Mom, I got all of my stickers on me!!!!" He was so proud!


What a funny kid.
