One of my favorite pictures from 2014. Eating dirt in grandpa's pickup truck. Desiree and Juliet have such a special bond. It will be interesting to see how it develops when Violet goes to kindergarten this year!

Pictures from Violet's 4th birthday party in 2014 (pirate themed).

Yes, I am posting on my blog... shocker seeing how I completely skipped over 2014. Violet is almost 5, Juliet is 3, and Desiree will be 2 this summer (with little Tommy expecting to join the family in about 4 weeks!).

We took our kids for the first time to an amusement park (Busch Gardens in Williamsburg, VA). It was a little tiring, and I got kicked off of every little kid ride because of my pregnancy. I even was told that I had to sit on the bench in the carousel (but I vetoed that one and said I needed to stand to protect my kids from falling).

Overall, life is terrific!
