Nice Little Sunday

A couple of weeks ago, we made a Sunday afternoon trip to the airport so that Gary could take a friend's little girl and wife for a ride in the helicopter.  Unfortunately, we didn't get any pictures in the helicopter since Daddy was busy and Mommy's hands were full with 2 squirmy little ones!  However, the girls LOVED the ride, and, even though they really had no clue what they saw, they were thrilled at the fact that we flew over Mamaw and Papaw's house and have talked about it ever since!

After the quick ride, we took a tour of a couple of the other planes in the hanger.
The girls were quick to take the controls and thought they were big stuff climbing in and out of the airplanes!
I'm not sure if Daddy or the girls liked the day more!
On the way home, we finished off the afternoon with a stop at the DQ!!!  The girls have definitely discovered a love for ice cream this summer!

Besides our fun airport adventures, I also wanted to post a few final pictures of the girls opening up their last round of birthday presents over the last several weeks!

They got cute pajamas and books from Aunt Sally...
 More cards and piggy money from Ma and John...
And purse pups from their friends Peyton and Paris...which they have hardly put down since they opened them!
Since it was also Mrs Ann's 40th birthday (Peyton and Paris' mommy), the girls made her a birthday card for us to take to her party!  We haven't let them play with markers much yet, just because we don't want to deal with the mess, but since we gave them markers in one of their birthday packages, we gave in!  I was sitting at the table helping them make the cards, and they were being very careful and doing great...until I walked away just for a moment!
 Luckily, they're washable...and I truly appreciate what that means!!
Now that the birthday fun has fully ceased (even though they still call people on their little play phones every day to say "Thank you for coming to my birthday party!), we've just hung out and acted silly!
 Here's a cute fall shot in our birthday sweats from Ma and John...
 Macy likes to wear Daddy's shoes...
And the final shots are from a couple of lunch and play dates with some of the girls' close friends!  Here's an after church lunch with Taylor...
And a DPK play date with the girls' best bud, Hannah!  It almost looks like we have trips, doesn't it??
