Lucky Double 7's

6 Years,  50 Weeks.


We celebrated the twins' birthday this week!

Can't believe it's been a whole 7 years since these guys made their way into our lives, and it's been a crazy, hectic, fun, and unbelievable adventure since.

We are so very proud of them and their growth and development!  Happy Birthday Maddy and Kohl!!


What a big difference!

Starting their banner day.

Double 7's!!




Here was the rest of our week:

Two sun-bathing beauties!

I'm done, says the surfer girl.

We stayed until we were the last people on the beach!

A quick treat on our drive back, the birthday celebration continues!

Dinner and a show that evening.

Early morning bike ride with Shawn Sunday morning.

We did 36 miles on the North Lake Apopka Loop Trail on our mountain bikes, some areas right next to the water!

Meanwhile, the kids attended a birthday party for Ashton at the clubhouse.

Brae enjoyed hanging out with Leif on the monkey bars.

Randoms:


We filled their room with more balloons, just like we did with Brae's.

Added some streamers to their door!

Their Shopkins cupcake cake for school.

Unseasonably dry, we've had several brush fires around town and you could see and smell the smoke everywhere.

Signs warning us on our bike ride around Lake Apopka.

Seriously, they were everywhere!

And we saw them too!  70 alligators, 3 turtles, and a rabbit.


Have a great weekend!!

  1. I really enjoyed seeing the twins birthday celebration. I wish I could have heard the 3 kids speeches at school, the volume wouldn't go up loud enough. How was it to have another male in the house for the weekend? Miss you all! Love you!
