Jared and Riley’s 8th Birthday

Jared and Riley turned 8 years old today. We celebrated their birthday with a family party this evening. They wanted to go ice skating for their birthday, but we won’t be able to fit it into the schedule until Saturday.

The Twins and Their DS’s

The twins got their DS’s for Christmas. They love playing on them and usually will play on them at the same time. They are absolutely obsessed with making sure their DS’s charge exactly the same amount. They coordinate plugging them in to charge and unplugging them as well. It is so funny to watch them. I’ve seen them grab their DS, look at each other, say “Ready? Unplug!” and then simultaneously unplug their DS. They go through the same routine when plugging them in. If one of them has his DS charging when the other’s isn’t charging, I’ve seen them get mad at each other about it.

Twins Square Dancing

Today the twins first grade class did square dancing. In the morning they danced with their parents and in the afternoon with their 6th grade buddy. Dan and I both attending in the morning and I went back int he afternoon to take pictures. I danced with Riley and Jared danced with Dan. Riley was adamant that we not switch partners! It was lots of fun and the kids all had a great time.
