{pretty, happy, funny, real}

I always seem to be a day late on this, but I suppose it's better than not posting at all, right?

{Pretty}

I couldn't resist taking a picture of the very colorful Ellie sporting her new hair cut while Madeline was having her hair done.  It's not everyday you see a kid wearing a yellow dress with a purple eye patch and a blue balloon.

{Happy}

On Wednesday night after eating at our favorite pizza place, I mentioned to Bryan that I could really go for a funnel cake and cotton candy.  Our parish is currently hosting their annual carnival that we NEVER take the kids to despite their asking us repeatedly.  When we headed to the carnival we cautioned them that we were only going to walk around and get some snack foods.  We ended up buying a sheet of tickets and making two little girls very happy and getting some junk food.  I think it's safe to say that we'll be heading back there next year.

{Funny}

Watching Madeline go down the "Fun Slide" at the carnival was rather amusing.  The look on her face was well worth the two tickets for the ride.

My mom and dad came up for lunch and a swim on Saturday which totally thrilled the girls.  Here we are playing and relaxing in the pool.  You can see my round 25 week belly in this picture.
