Birthday roadtrip.

We decided to keep the 2nd birthday festivities going this past weekend by making a trip to visit Aunt Juel and her family in Salem, OR. The weather was gorgeous and the twins had a blast playing outside with Juel's grandchildren. Here the girls - Rose, Samantha, Ashleigh and Breaunah - ham it up for the camera. They had me take lots more pics of them in various poses but there's only room for this one.

That's Rob in the background with Rose, August, and Samantha. Dale Jr., D.J. and Hunter are in the foreground.

A great time was had by all - except maybe Frisky the cat who got chased around by the twins all weekend and one of Juel's houseplants which got ripped out of it's pot by the twins...

Birthday No. 2!!

Today is the twins' second birthday! We opened a lot of presents over the last two days already, but saved a couple of big boxes for this morning. They really know how to open gifts now!

Here's a couple pictures of them this morning, and then some fresh videos of the activities, as well. In particular, they were ecstatic over the cool, new, collapsible tricycles they got from Aunt Nellie and Grandma Gloria.
