Love Rox and 2 weekends of birthday fun

Love does rock even in freezing temps!  Two weekends ago I ran the Love Rox 10k with friends and hands down it was the worst weather of any run, yet I still had a good time.  It was freezing with rain, sleet and snow..thank goodness we only ran a 10k!  My eyelashes we starting to stick together which made it hard to see where I was running.  Here are a few photos of a race..

Since it was Isabella's birthday the previous week she was able to bring home her class mascot, Thomas the Bear.  He came with us for Isabella's annual birthday trip to Toys R Us.  Isabella enjoyed checking out every single aisle in the store before deciding what to purchase with her birthday money.  She even picked out a sticker book for Sophia with her own birthday money.  After the birthday crown, balloon and shopping Isabella ended her trip with a ride on the bus.  Thomas the bear joined in on the fun!

Patiently waiting in the long line to check out

To continue the birthday celebration Meredith and Sean came down to Richmond to celebrate Isabella and Wills birthday.  Isabella loved doing a fairy puzzle with Aunt Meredith and Uncle Sean.  She also loved blowing out the candle the same time as Daddy!

Happy birthday Isabella and Will!

Make a wish x2

This past weekend was Will's actual birthday.  We enjoyed a relaxing day at home.  The girls helped make Wills favorite cake which is vanilla cake with chocolate butter cream icing.  I believe their favorite part of making the cake was licking the bowl clean!  

Ready to sing
