The Tea Party

The girls got all decked out for the big tea party...

Pia loved the hot cocoa...

And Grandma put out quite a spread!

It was hard to get the hats off the girls.

Christmas Day

Christmas morning! Too bad they weren't quite sure what was going on.

This year we hosted Christmas brunch at our house. It was nice to be able to entertain the family.

Christmas dinner with Aniela. They liked the drinkable yogurt the most.

Time for a gool laugh at Pop in his present...

Then off to bed. What a great Christmas!

As Christmas Approaches...

At 2 years, 4 months old, Little Miss Pia likes to "explore" where she's not allowed to be and then gets quite an attitude when she is caught.

Little Miss Mira explores, too. However, at a year old, she's really not interested if she's been caught or not.

Santa and his Reindeer

Pia, Mira, Tela and Eliza all got to tell Santa their wish list and pet his reindeer.


Pia loved the pot belly pig the most.

Roba's Tree Farm

It was very cold for our visit to Roba's. Everyone bundled up tight!

Feeding the goats was a big hit! Pia really liked the babies.

Thomas had to really snuggle in to keep warm.

We even got to see Santa while we were there!

The First Annual Sleep Over!

1st it was some leftovers for turkey day...

Then some movies and crafts...

... and of course some snuggling!

Thanksgiving Day Fashion Show!

Getting ready for the big show!

Everyone looked so amazing in there fashion show attire. The crowd was cheering!

Santa's Parade

Pia and Mira got to watch Santa's Parade with there friends, Nico, Natalia and Emma.

Natalia and Pia liked to try to dance out into the parade together.

They were so excited to see Santa.

MIra Belle's 1st Birthday!

We had Mira's party at the new house. 28 people fit and we were amazed. Everyone had a great time and we loved celebrating her 1st year! Mira's favorite part was the SMASH CAKE!

Halloween Party

We had a Halloween party for Pia and Mira Belle's friends on Saturday.

The kids all dressed up in their costumes...

Decorated pumpkins...

and begged for candy.

At the end of the night it was just Pia and Molly left standing.

We all had a great time.

Flashcard Fun

It's hard to believe that Pia is 2 already. And as you can see, she loves Disney movies, the water, and even learning. She is 25 pounds and 34 inches long - still a bit of a peanut.

Swimming at Aunt Mary's

Our little scarer

She loves MONSTERS, INC. if you couldn't tell!

Claws and Paws

Gram and Pop took Pia, Mira Belle, Tela, Eliza and Jenna to Claws and Paws this weekend. Everyone had such a good time!

Pia enjoyed the petting zoo...

But she particularly like the reptiles.

Time to go home!

Pia 2nd Birthday

Pia wasn't feeling well for her party, so the party dress was bypassed. We went for the "bathing bottom" look!

Pia's 2nd Birthday Party

Best Buds!

Natalia came over to play this weekend.

...and played in the water. What fun!
