{Bring it on} Donkey Kong

The girls conquered Donkey Kong at Caleb's 4th birthday party. Payten is just excited to twirl whereas Emme is always determined to do things her way!

Farmers market

These are the pictures that are meant to be seen in {30 years} when they marry...until then, we will continue the task of silly photos! They really were having a great time *wink wink*...

Late night {princesses}

Last night the girls just couldn't sleep because they wanted to play with their new favorite toys. After trying to 'sneak' out of bed, it was eleven o'clock before their eyes shut!

Princess house

Our wonderful babysitter, Shannon, gave the girls her Barbie house along with tons of toys. The girls have spent hours playing 'princesses' already! Such little girls...until Emme pulled up to the house with her hot wheels!

I'm a {mermaid}

'I'm a mermaid, mommy!' is how Payten described her artwork. My guess, a clown. Silly mommy!

Harvest {help}

The girls spent a wonderful fall day roaming the fields. While Gido was busy on the combine, the girls discussed the harvest...only a few more years and he will have himself some serious help!

The {Royal} Woldanski Family

We finally had our family portrait done!

Whack-a-MOLE!

It was all business as the girls took out some frustration on those sneaky moles.

Planes, trains & automobiles {and a horse carousel}

I wear my {sungagas}...all day!

No matter where she is & no matter what she's doing, Emme has her 'sungagas' on...she's even worn them to bed a time or two!

Born to Ride!

We had such a fabulous time today at the Clearwater Horse Club. Looks like daddy's gonna need to save up for a pony or two!

What's new {pussycats}?

Who would believe that these two could sit still for more than 2 minutes? Certainly not mommy & daddy...but they keep on surprising us!!

Puppy love

There are moments in our house that are suspended in time...like watching a cup full of milk fall to the floor, the slow motion of a little one falling to pain, and Emme kissing the dog. As we were on the way outside, she wanted to make sure Dex didn't miss her.

Fairies of the {forest}

Nature walk

Hoping to find some leaves and twigs, we embarked on a nature walk through the trails. Before forging ahead, the girls had to consult with the map. Thank goodness for little girls...already know to stop and ask for directions!
