Olivia's 6th Birthday

Wow, can't believe she is 6 years old. I know it seems like it took forever for her (she has been dying to be 6 for a LONG time now...one of the cons of starting her in kindergarten early), but the time has flown by for me. I still remember the day she was born, minute by minute, hour by hour of that day, every detail, I remember it all...and it seems like yesterday.

We had one birthday celebration on Thanksgiving with cupcakes from Bestema! We then celebrated on her birthday with a small family gathering and then on Friday after her birthday Erik & I took her for her REAL birthday celebration and went into NYC with Mike, Sarah and Lindsey. We went to see the premiere of the movie Princess & the Frog since it wasn't out in theaters yet and then went to meet all of the Disney Princesses. We then spent the day in the city and visited Toys R Us, rode on the ferris wheel in Toys R Us, ate the best NY pizza ever, and saw the tree! Great Day! Happy Birthday to my sweet princess...we love you sooooo much!

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving at Aunt Laura's with the family...we celebrated Olivia's 6th birthday a little early with cupcakes gaolore from Bestema!

Scott's 3rd Birthday!

Friday November 20th we celebrated Scott's 3rd birthday. He was soooo excited for his birthday and had to tell everyone how he is now "free" not "two" anymore. Ryan and Jackson came down early in the day and they got to play all afternoon. Family and friends came over later in the evening for cake and OF COURSE presents! Even Aunt Diana (Scott's Godmother) and Ashley came up from PA to celebrate with us.

Scott got a new big wheel and he has taken off on on it. He absolutely loves it!

Lucy's 1st Birthday!

It's hard to believe that a whole year has gone by! Little precious Lulu is a year old! On Sunday we celebrated Lucy's first birthday and Andrew and Heidi hosted the best birthday celebration. Heidi's parents even joined us in the Happy Birthday song and opening of gifts via Skype which we awesome! Soooo...the two newest members of the family, Tyler and Lucy are now one! Now what?!?!? I can't believe it!!

Happy Birthday Lucy!!! We love you soooo much!

Jackson & Sammy's 3rd b-day parties

As most of you know, there four boys born all around the same time in 2006 of which we named the "06 Boys". Jackson & my nephew Sammy were the first two of the four to turn 3 in October. Scott will be in November and then Mason in December. Jackson had his annual Halloween Costume Party for his birthday and we took the kids to Ryan & Larry's for the birthday party. Scott dressed up as Scooby Doo & Olivia dressed up as Velma from Scooby Doo but when she saw people there that she didn't know, she got embarrassed and took the wig off and wouldn't wear it so you can't really tell what she is.

The next day we celebreated Sammy's birthday at Bestema & Papa's house. Happy Birthday boys! :)

Harris Hill Farm

I think we are going to make this place (Harris Hill Farm) our yearly Fall tradition for pumpkin picking. I absolutely LOVE this place. The view from way up on this mountain is breath taking and you actually pick your pumpkins from the "patch"! They have a corn maze, the hayride and the cutest farm animals that are beautiful and so well taken care of. This year my mom, Titi, Marissa and I took the kids. We had only been year one year before which was the year we took the photo for Scott & Mason's 1st birtday party invitation. So that was 2 years ago. We got a bunch of pumpkins for a great price and of course delicious corn on the cob! Enjoy...and the best season of the year has officially begun! :)

BesteMa is back!

BesteMa & Olivia

Signy got back from Norway a few weeks ago so we all went to BesteMa & Papa's house for a BBQ and the kids got to enjoy some swimming at their house on the last day of the pool being opened! The kids were all so excited to have her back...and so were we! I got some really cute pics of the 4 Spiegel kiddies.
