Birthday Day
We started the morning off with a small bag of presents. Porter got a set of Matchbox construction trucks, army men a new bowl and dish set and another Matchbox VW Dune Buggy. Abigail got Princess Shoes, bracelets, a new dish a bowl set and a Matchbox VW Thing.
New car
Bracelets
Bubby's trucks
SHOES!
On they go
Reminds me of when I would play at my grandma's house
Birthday Pancakes
Chowin' down. Porter would use his fork lift as a fork. Cracked us up.
Dining Princess
On the way down to eat, I had to go through some construction which made us run over some of the cement that is raised on the side of the road (so you wake up if you're driving off the road). We hit some of that and the kids said "Car toot toot." Oh man.
Mangia Pizza
Mangia DRAGON. Rawwwwwwwwwwwwrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Apple sauce to start off with
We got free entertainment. The road crew was digging a hole right in the middle of the road.
Free ice cream brownie on your birthday!
Then we hopped over to where mom gets her hair done. The kids got to meet Katy my hair dresser.
Someone left us balloons on the front porch while we were out. Hmmmmmmmmm. The days not over yet kiddos!

Happy 3rd Birthday Porter and Abigail
Mom is up early getting this post in. Mom and Dad got your little gift bags ready last night after we put you to bed. Dad is going in to work a little late because we are having a pancake breakfast for you complete with candles in the pancakes.
Three years ago we gave birth to the sweetest little set of twins. Porter, you came out first. You were born at 12:20am and Abigail you were next at 12:22. You both came out crying and were in very good health. It was a long night. Mom and dad got a little rest. But the adrenaline got us up early.
Dad was the first to see you. I had to recover overnight and got to see you the next day. It was so awesome seeing you both for the first time. The nurses in the NICU took such good care of you. They had you all wrapped up in blankets to keep you warm and to make you feel safe. The decorated your stations with little bunny pictures as it was Easter season.
We love you so very much. You both are really growing up fast. You crack us up everyday.
Porter. You love your big green monster truck, dirt, trains, dino nuggets, "Bummy", tractors and swings. You still love to snuggle with mom and dad. You love car rides and riding your tricycle.
Abigail. You love anything pink or "Princess" as you call it. You love catching Rolly Ponies with your brother. You love bracelets, lip gloss and getting your hair dried by mom after your bath and painted fingernails and toes. You also love trains.
Here's to 3!
Love,
Mommy and Daddy

Our Redeemer Lives
We joined Grandma and Grandpa Best at their church this Easter. We had a pancake breakfast and then attended service. We woke up to rain and drove to church in the rain. But when service let out it was gorgeous. It made for a perfect afternoon.
Oh man. Melt my ever lovin' heart. Porter looks like a little boy here. His basket is bigger than he is.
