As much as we are watching our children to see what they do with thier lives, they are watching us to see what we do with ours.

BG & Family Fun

We made our first trip of the season to Busch Gardens and my dad accompanied us on the trip.  It was so much fun and I think we all had a blast!  Isabella has grown a lot since last year is a tall enough to do a lot of new rides!  She even went on her first roller coaster.  Since the weather was perfect we opted for a ride on the log flume.   Sophia was not sure what to expect and I held her tight for security.  However,  when we were splashed it ended up right in Sophia's face and clothes.  She looked sad that she was splashed and did not realize it was part of the ride. My poor darling was shivering when we got off the ride.  Once we found a nice sunny spot we began to dry off. We tried lots of new rides and are excited to go back again!

As you know we adopted a sweet cat we called Luna.  However, Luna developed a few bad habits we could not change and it seemed she was not happy with our little family.  Thus, we sent her back to the cattery.  The girls were sad to see the cat go but understood that we had to do what was right for the kitty.  The girls just wanted a pet so we ended up getting a fish and a snail as our new family pets.  The girls named the Betta fish "Nemo" and the snail "Larry".
Bye Luna, we will miss you!
Last weekend was the long awaited Lebanese food festival in Richmond. Yum!  I was thrilled to enjoy the tasty treats with my family that was in town visiting.  As if we were not spoiled enough by all the delicious food, we were spoiled with a date night for Will & I!  It has been a long time that Will & I have planned a date and actually did something (other than running to target).  We went to Cinebistro and enjoyed a movie with a spread of sugary desserts.  It was an AWESOME night out! Thank you to Eddie & Mary for giving us a great night out!
Ready for our night out

Hugs before heading out the door on our adult only evening!

The girls and thrilled to have alone time with G-Mom & PopPop
