We miss you Nick, Joy & Kenzie!

I have been meaning to post this for awhile and am just now getting around to it. Nick, Joy and Kenzie moved to Charlotte at the end of June and we were so sad to see them go. The years that they were here went by so quickly and we might not ever live in the same town again...sad! It was so much fun living close by and watching Kenzie and Halle grow together. I hope that they will remember being so close and that they remain that way forever! Before they left, Erica and Chris hosted a party for them and we also got to have them stay with us for a few days before they moved. Here are some pictures:

I will miss putting them in matching outfits!
They are so cute together and so many people think they look like twins!
Brandon fell asleep on the ground so we put puffs on his stomach to see if any of the kids would go for them - Halle was the only one and Brandon woke up!Halle loves her Uncle Nick!
Kenzie being cute as always at Erica and Chris'

We took a picture of all of us when we were pregnant with all of these little ones and now look!

Dads with their kiddos - David/Caleb, Brandon/Halle, Nick/Kenzie, Chris/Annabelle, Kent/Rowen

Joy surprised Nick with tickets to a Twins game with Brandon and Kent so we all went up there to celebrate. The boys had a great time at the game - they seats were awesome thanks to Joy, and the girls/kids had a good time shopping and then going to the zoo. We all met up for dinner and ate at Red Robin where Halle realized she loved balloons (see the video below!)

Singing to Nick!

Rowen and Kenzie at the zoo - this tiger is just a little bit bigger than both of them!
Joy with Kenzie, Hilary with Rowen and me with Halle who preferred to push her stroller rather than sit inside (she continues to like this...)

All three were super tired with no afternoon naps but could not fall asleep!
Looking at the dolphin in the aquarium - this was Halle's favorite part of the zoo!

Halle is quite the balloon bopper.
