Horse Lovers

another bday party with pony rides. something about little girls and horses, esp at this age. does that mean we should get the girls a (miniature) horse? Eric does, he's considering it for their big 5th bday. Am I the only one who thinks that's a bit over the top?

What did you do for mom's day?



since vienna likes trucks, we figure she'd enjoy seeing BIG trucks. BIG trucks racing, jumping, diving, chomping metal! woohooo!!
the motorcycle drag race and the monster free style jumps were the thrilling highlights. vienna stated she would like a helmet, just like the winner on the red motorcycle.
Momma had a blast too!! laurel isnt as big on trucks, but she had the beach and indoor pool.
we've already booked a room for next year!

Now I know



What kind of bday cake to you want?
the tomboy: Iron Man
the girly girl: princess or ballerina

Who do you want to invite to your bday party:
the tomboy: Griffy, Sevi (Sebastian), Nathan
the girly girl: Ada, Britian, Tamsen, Ella

While in the town of Vienna, hanging out by the train park, Eric spots a karate classroom, 'let's go ck out karate, hichi punch!'.
the tomboy: I want to do karate!
What about you? the girly girl: no, ballerina

at the end of class, soccer coach asks, 'do you want a pink sticker?'
the tomboy wrinkles her nose, 'no orange'

at the school's playground pick up, the tomboy comes home w/scratches and bruises on her leg.
the girly girl is usually sitting on the teacher's lap.

each morning getting ready for school, the tomboy wears socks and sneakers.
the girly girl dons 1 pink croc and 1 purple croc (fashion statement?)

for xmas, the tomboy requests a 'rocket car' (just like poppa). she doesnt like to let anyone else drive and likes to wash and clean her car (just like poppa).
the girly girl got her prancing, ride-on horse.

at the store, they get to pick one toy with their gift cards:
the tomboy wants the spiderman snorkeling kit (she still loves to swim and dive).
the girly girl chooses (yet another) doll, one w/long hair to comb.
