Look ma - no (training) wheels!

Paityn's new trick is riding her bike without trainig wheels. She learned at granny & grandpa's and then mom let her try it up and down our sidewalk. She is becoming a pro. Paityn & mom even went on a ride around the neighborhood! Wowie Paityn, when do you think I can ride your bike?!?! (from Briley)

My "new" favorite thing

I'm already trying to big just like my big sis so my new favorite thing is to ride her big girl scooter!!! I absolutely love it! Mom thinks it is hilarious because I can get on and position my feet perfectly and then I hold on like a big girl and "scream" to let someone know I'm ready to be pushed! (special thanks to my neighbor friend for giving me a push so mom could take pics! Thanks Cassady!)


Look at that face! She really watches where she's going - so serious!

FUN in the SUN

Here are some pictures from the girls' first Florida beach vacation. We went to Laura's wedding and went a little early to enjoy some Florida sun. The first couple of pics are from a boat ride we took on the ocean. Briley LOVED it. We saw a dolphin and Paityn got to feed some gulls from the back of the boat.



It was very difficult to get Paityn out of the sun - she liked the pool best (just like her mom!)



Here we are getting ready to go out to eat. Check out the awesome view from the condo. The ocean was awesome! Except for one time when we had to clear the water because some BIG "thing" was swimming along the shore!! Seriously!


Briley loved the water. We stayed in the kiddie pool most of the time and she walked around while inside a pool ring floatie thing. It helped her keep her balance although she did go under a couple of times. No tears though, she loved it.

Fun at the wedding

The girls stopped long enough to take a few quick photos as we walked down the beach to the wedding. Of course, we couldn't be on the beach without PLAYING in the sand! Briley & Paityn are just too cute together. Love those girls!!!!

Florida wedding

We just returned from Destin to see one of mom's friends get married on the beach. It was soooooo pretty! Here's a picture of Paityn watching from afar. Isn't the bride so beautiful!?! This was the first beach wedding we have ever attended.
