I still can’t get over how well Saturday’s photos turned out!! And it’s worth another plug for Anelise from {anelise} tupinis photography who did SUCH a wonderful job (and was completely affordable).
I posted the outside shots yesterday; here are some of my favorites from the inside shots (Still very hard to choose!!).

I am *SO* happy with how Saturday’s photos turned out!! Anelise from {anelise} tupinis photography did SUCH a wonderful job (and was completely affordable).
I was going to put up all 108 photos, but I won’t do that to you…here are some of my favorites from the outside shots (SO hard to choose!!). I’ll put up some from the inside shots tomorrow.

I brought him in to show the kids (there are no pictures of the kids with the bunny because they’d just gotten out of the bath – ’nuff said).
We let him go again…might regret that in a bit when our garden is chewed on, but he’s SO CUTE!! 🙂

So, this isn’t a way-back photo (it’s from November), but it’s a way-back technique…so that counts, right?
We got silhouettes done of the kids as gifts to the grandparents this year. (This is actually a scan of the finished, framed project … I didn’t want to take it out of the frame!)
We went to our local library and each kid sat for about 5 – 10 minutes while Jean snip-snipped away at the paper. She was amazing to watch! She had an adjustable chair set up so she could position the kid to the height she needed and then a portable DVD player (with a fish DVD playing – lots of action) set up so that your child would look in the right direction. And then her hands just flew across the paper. I was quite impressed.
Cheryl over at Twinfatuation hosts this one. Go on over to see who else is playing – and join in too!

As you know, Logan turned 2 on Friday. We celebrated on Saturday with Nana, Grandpa, and Aunt Cathy.
Grandpa makes shaped cakes. (You may remember Tyrone from the twins’ birthday this year. Or Elmo and McQueen from years past…) And not only does he make them, he frosts them with the BEST icing ever. (powdered sugar frosting. YUM.) Logan’s very first shaped cake was none other than Mickey Mouse himself:
Mickey Mouse Cake
The Birthday Boy
Logan's Fire Truck
"Look! Cake!"
Mickey's Nose Tastes Pretty Good
Logan's Balloons (from the day before)

We went to the Aquarium with my cousin Dave yesterday. The kids had a blast…Maggie wouldn’t let Dave put her down LOL
The pictures are pretty dark because, well, it’s the Aquarium and apparently there’s mood lighting. Plus – mom of the year that I am – I forgot my camera, so these were all taken with my phone.
The Best Way to Travel
"Look! Fish!"
Learning About Horseshoe Crabs
"Is there anything in there?"
My Kind Of Turtle
Is that a shark?
That one's name is "Bob"
"Look at THAT one!"
Dave remembered his camera…these are from him (Thanks Dave!)
Dave and Maggie
Burke, Maggie, and "Steve the Turtle"
So Many Fish!
Hiya 🙂
After the Aquarium, we met up with Aunt Cathy and ate at Durgin Park (YUM!). Dave took this picture as we were leaving to go home.

Our town holds a Memorial Day parade. And – holy convenience – it marches right past our street! All we have to do is walk 3 houses down and we’re in the right spot.
Waiting for the Parade to Start
"I think I see something!"
"Are you sure, Burke?"
The High School Marching Band
(For you, Sue *grin* )
"Cool! We got a flag!"
"Parades are neat"
When the parade was over, we walked ALLLLL the way back home (tee hee) and hung out in the back yard.
Fun in the Sandbox

I know what you’re thinking. We’ve had playdates before. How can this be Maggie’s first? Well…it’s a first because it was a friend for just Maggie (although, Burke did get in on the fun at times). And it’s a first because it was a friend dropped off. . . Little Miss A’s mom didn’t stay!
Maggie and Little Miss A play dress up at school ALL.THE.TIME. It’s all I ever hear about when Maggie gets home from school. And it sounds like they have a lot of fun too. So I contacted Little Miss A’s mom and asked if she’d like to come over. Whoo Boy – the excitment! 🙂
I didn’t get permission to post Little Miss A’s picture, so all you’ll see here is the back of her head.
Princess Butterfly and CinderMagella

Ganging up on Burke
