Happy Birthday

My first borns turned six yesterday... At exactly 6:17 and 6:18 pm, six years ago, we welcomed our identical twin girls into the world, into our family and into our hearts forever.

We love them so much. They bring a lot of joy to our family... And as their Mommy and Daddy, we feel very lucky to be a part of their lives as well.

I wanted to make their day special. So for starters, I woke up earlier and started a batch of their favorite muffins... I mean what's a birthday without your favorite food, right? I made sure to include all of the fixings... Butter, honey and jam.. Along with their favorite fruits... Strawberries and blueberries. And to wash it all down... Chocolate milk! Yum! Geez... They sure are lucky if I do say so myself. :)

When school time came around, the boys and I whisked them off to school... Then unknown to the Girlies, Daddy took half the day off of work to spend the day with all of us and to surprise them at school! So when we got to school, with cupcakes in hand to share, they were beyond thrilled!

Afterwards, per their request we went shopping at Target! (oh geez... They're only six and already want to shop on their birthday! We're in trouble! But I love it, they're girls after my own heart!) we also had the treat of meeting Memaw there AND we ran into one of our favorite people, Leila! :) The Girlies sure loved that! After Target, we headed to Build-A-Bear... They wanted to use their gift certificates they received in the mail for their birthday... So we had a merry ol' time there while they built their horses... "twinkle toes" and "horse shoe" hehehe.

Our last stop on the birthday fun day was dinner at Red Robin. Need I say more? We had a blast! And again, the Girlies both told us, they had the best birthday ever! I agree. :)

And now, pictures....
