Spoiled little girl

Yes, spoiled little girl could be addressed to both of these girls.  However, Grandpa Ingold came down and picked up Willow to fly out to Ohio for about a week or so.  We had so much fun with Scarlett.  One of the weekends when Willow was gone we went to the Hammock Beach Resort pools and met up with some friends.  Scarlett was so excited!

She felt like big stuff being the only kid for awhile.

We actually stopped by the pools because it was Danny's birthday.  We missed Willow bean while she was gone but she had so much fun up north with her cousins and family too.

Stars on Ice

We enjoy going to watch "Smuckers Stars on Ice."  Since Grandma and Grandpa were in town, they watched Willow for us so we could enjoy the show with Scarlett. 

We were right on the ice and it was a great show.

I know this isn't the classiest of pictures but this was Scarlett giving the skaters high five.  We had other friends join us but we didn't get a group picture this year.

Grandparents Visit

Grandpa and Grandma Hartzler come to Florida every year.  It is always nice to look forward to because after the holidays are over, they come around March and April.  It seems to break up our spring and its nice to have family around.

Of course, Grandpa was barely in the door and I put my "handyman" to work under the sink.  And of course, Scarlett had to check help.

While Grandpa and Grandma were helping me around the house, I found the girls outside reading books.

Randomness

Did I ever tell you how much Scarlett LOVES, I mean LOVES getting packages or mail?

One of the best purchases that we have ever bought for our children has been the Fisher Price Playhouse.  If we let her, Scarlett would play for hours by herself with all her little people, the cars, the kitchen and all the little pieces.  The pieces and all the accessories are perfect for this age. 

This is just a close up of the little kitchen table and all the fixings.

The girls love them some babies and strollers.... They are ALL over the house ALL the time.

Babies

Our sweet friend Candy (and Darren Peterson) had little Zach on March 12, 2011.  We are so blessed to have such a wonderful group of friends, and especially if they are having precious little ones.  Our girls are such good friends with their other two boys.

At the same time that Candy had her baby should have been around the same time my sister Joy had her baby.  However, baby Flint is up in Heaven.  These two babies will forever be remembered together to me.  This is a picture of our girls flying to Ohio to attend Flint's burial service.

Just girls

My girls are so much fun.  Willow is a hoot and Scarlett just tells her what to do.

Willow is starting to talk more and more.

Scarlett seems to do more and more artwork.

And likes to wear heels more and more.

Bathroom Remodeling

We are remodeling our bathroom.  It is a hot mess.

It hasn't been the easiest thing we have done but more details are yet to come.

Monkeyin around

Sweet Candy Peterson is having her 3rd little boy in March.  We threw her a shower at April's house and had so much fun.

One of the Monkey Cakes that the girls made.
