My Birthday- June 9th

Here is Brianna and Roberta watching Jason and I blowing out my candles.
Yes! That is my Ice Cream Cake. I always want a ice cream cake I got one this year! YUMMY!!

We had Seafood Alfredo for dinner and Ice Cream Cake. It was a good end to a bad day of sitting in the ER all day with Jason who split his head open in the morning and needed to have it glued shut.

We stayed with our friends Jeff and Kara and their two kids Lauren and Lia for a few days during our trip to Michigan. It was a BLAST! Kara and I got to have some girl time on Thursday night once the kids went to bed and the guys were gone to a bachelor party. Friday we went to Troy and had lunch with the Kostal guys. Then we went to Canton and met Jen at Java Jungle that place is so cool. We came home and had a little BBQ with Rich, Lindsey, Sean, Erica, Quinn, Jeff, Kara, Lauren, and Lia. It turns out it was not just a BBQ it was a SURPRISE BIRTHDAY PARTY FOR ME!!!!! It was AWESOME! Then Saturday went to Chad and Tracy's wedding which was the most fun I have had with out the kids in about a year! I am lame what can I say. I hope to have a few pictures to follow from that fun filled night. Sunday we got up and started the drive back to SC.

Our Trip to Michigan May 29 - June 8, 2009 The Drive There

We took Hwy 77 almost all of the way up there is was cool going through the mountains.
The kids went through their first tunnel on the way up there.
Travis and I were tired so we let Jason drive for awhile. :-)

We took Harry with us and he had to sit in the middle of the carseats in the packed car and this is what happened to him. Poor Harry.



We drove up from South Carolina to Michigan. We stayed at a Days Inn in Cambridge, OH on the way up there not really recommend. The kids did very well on the drive there and back. It was really not that bad. We stopped at rest areas and McDonalds that had play places. On the way home we were ready to get home and drove straight through from Detroit to North Augusta we stopped to play and eat but, not to sleep. We were so excited to get home and sleep in our own bed.

Our Trip to Michigan May 29, 2009- June 4, 2009 Grandma and Grandpa Zettel's House

We stayed at my mom and dad's house for about a week. It was a good visit. I do not have many pictures from that week. It was crazy there and I also miss placed my camera for a few days. Saturday was Rachel's graduation party. That was great to see everyone but, the kids did not not nap for very long again that day so it was ugly. Then Sunday was her graduation (We went and saw Travis' family in the morning before graduation for a BBQ.) We had a party of some sort every day we were there. It was great. The kids liked to play with the blocks, legos, car and kitchen stuff. I brought them toys but, did not need them. We need family to send us pictures so we can put them in our family frames.

Trip to Michigan May 30, 2009- Great Great Grandma Dowell's House

Me, Jason and his Great, Great, Grandma.
Me, Brianna, and her Great, Great, Grandma.

We went down on Saturday Morning with Great Aunt Amy to visit grandma for just a hour or so. The kids were getting in to everything, a little on the grouchy side and grandma was tried so it was a quick visit. It is so nice that they got to go see her for a little bit though.

Our Trip to Michigan June 2, 2009 - Grandma and Grandpa Lyons' House

The kids played on the stairs for a long time going up and down thru the railing.

Travis and his dad. Happy Father's Day a little early.
Brianna pouting she will put her head down like that and walk away hoping that you will feel bad for her.
Travis, Grandma Lyons, Aunt Justine, Grandpa Lyons, and Jason and Brianna.
Oh NO!!!!
Jason was so trying so hard to be mad. He was not sure if he want to cry or laugh.


We had a nice visit at Grandma and Grandpa Lyons' House. We went over there for a few hours on Tuesday morning.

Jason and Brianna are 2!!!!

Here we are before Jason and Brianna's Birthday Party. I made their cake and Brianna helped picked it out. Jason just wanted to eat CAKE!! They had a great time opening their gifts. It was a wonderful day.

Our New Yard!

Here is the before.
This is what the grading look like and then they put in the sprinklers and they graded it back out like this before they put down the sod.
Here are the pipes laid out for the sprinklers. This was cool they had a machine that looked like a chain saw on wheels. Jason loved to watch them.
YEAH!!! Our yard it done! All of the lines will go away as time goes on. I think after we mow it once. We can't wait to enjoy the summer on our new lawn.

Spring Party with my Mothers of Multiples group.

Here are a few of our friends that were at the party.
We got Jason to take off his devil hat for the party but, he had to have another hat and this is the one that he choose to wear for the day.

Jason wanted to play on this with the girls so he jumped on the the middle.
Brianna and Travis were talking into this pipe and me and Jason were on the other end talking back to them.
Travis and Jason- Jason is going to fly on the rocket ship.

Brianna and Briana (another twin she also has a twin brother)
