~Tea Party~

My mom helped us get a playroom arranged for Aylah and Grace in our back room that was practically being a waste of space and needed a little makeover (more pics coming soon). Aylah has loved playing back there and will spend hours playing all by herself.
The other day, I discovered a Tea Party was in order.
Bear, who had the best seat in the house.

I'm so thankful all of her "friends" could attend the party.

Cooking for her bears and puppies.
Please notice the apron she is wearing. My meme gave that to me that has been passed down through the family and is generations old. Now Aylah insists on wearing it all the time. She loves to wear her aprons.


~Kelsie's 4th Birthday Party~

This was Aylah's first gymnastics birthday party...and being our first, I had no clue that a leotard was a necessity. I am learning though.
Kelsie and Aylah

Aylah's goody bag from the pinata.

Her absolute favorite...the juice box.

Aren't these cupcake flowers adorable?!

Mrs. Stephanie entertaining by Baby Bumblebee.

Aylah's beautiful front roll.

Showing off her incredible jumping skills.



Waiting patiently for her turn to jump.

The catwalk.

The marshmallow pit.

TARZAN!



Some sort of spread eagle.

What a blast! Aylah loved it and I thought she was the best gymnast there, of course!

~Daddy and Aylah~

Just a really great picture of my handsome husband and his twin who was not wanting to pose for the pic.

~Mommy and Aylah~

Aylah and I love to snuggle on the couch all the time. I was just fortunate enough to get in on the popcorn this time. Usually, that's a daddy and Aylah thing...

~Praying Mantis~

Can you believe the size of this praying mantis. He is staring straight at us from the windshield.

He's got to be the biggest praying mantis I have ever seen.


~Blueberry Festival~

We headed to the Blueberry Festival for Labor Day Weekend this year. Aylah had a little pony ride. His name was Tonka.



I love Aylah's expression in this picture. You have to look closely, but it sure is cute!

Of course, Aylah was attracted to the bow booth.

This yoyo balloon was probably her favorite thing of all.
Sorry to tell you, it has already popped.

We can never go anywhere without a little swing time.

Grandpa also had a softball tournament that we went to and we had a great time.
This was Aylah's face when I told her daddy went to the concession to get her a surprise.

Grandpa and his trophy!

Grandpa studying the field.

Aylah loving on grandma and grandpa.

What a fun weekend! We are counting down the days until next year, so we can buy a new yoyo balloon :)

Well, actually 30 weeks and 5 days...but whose counting!
