Tweetsie Railroad

Rebecca!

Tweetsie Railroad! So cute!

We went to celebrate Laura's 3rd birthday and we had the best time!

Tweetsie Railroad is an amusement park for small children in Boone. I had heard it wasn't worth the cost so I was expected yucky fair but it was great! It was so nice to be up in the mountains, the weather was perfect and everyone was just so excited to be there.

There were rides

Showgirls

And our favorite mining mice!

Laura and I stuck to the small rides. She tried the tilt-a-whirl with Rebecca and Matt and said it was too scary for her. Rebeca loved it! I was so surprised because she's usually so cautious. She rode several big rides with Matt and would hold her arms up and just laugh the whole time.

We had a big weekend! I went to Rhode Island to visit Mary Martha and Pickens

Matt hosted Shawn's bachelor party

And the girls got to spend the night with their Oma! Both girls, both nights, Riley was there and they got to go to two birthday parties. At one party they rode a real horse! Thank you Oma for such a big time! The girls loved it!

Happy Birthday Laura!

We celebrated on Wednesday with cupcakes and presents! She loved it!! When she was going to bed that night she asked  for her balloons. I said they were tied up in the den. She said, "Go get them! They are for my birthday and it is still my birthday!" I did.

Other exciting happenings include going to Costco!

Visiting with Oma and Granny Foda

Breakfast at McDonalds!

Getting supplies for dance

And haircuts at Snip-its!

Last weekend Matt's mom kept the girls so we could go to Fiddler's. Thank you Oma! We had so much fun!!

We also went to the pool with the Browns! The big girls mermaid names were Lunada, Merabell and Kickboard :)

And we started a total make over on the outside of our house

Circus day!
