Box car

Family and Friends: Return all presents for Molly and Ellie. They have found the best toy ever! A empty diaper box! It is a car, a seat, and is now filled to the brim with Molly's toys.

Molly pushed Ellie around in the box

Ellie hanging out in her "car"

Molly can fold herself into this box! We will pack her up and mail her to you...any takers?


Ahhhhh, scary baby! Wow she was close. I was the human jungle gym last night. Joe has been encouraging the girls to "wrestle" and Ellie loves rolling on top of you and rubbing her face into you with her mouth open (I hope she isn't trying to bite us, it has happened once).
Ellie is on face treatment #3. Dr C said it could take up to 2 weeks to see things really clear up so we will keep at it. It is a "solution" (looks like water) used to clear up acne. Will probably cause dryness and peeling, so we can use Cetaphil lotion and that is it! Hope this is working, we have lots of birthday pictures to take tomorrow and Saturday! Can't belive our baby is turning 1 tomorrow!
Note: Don't know why the pictures are so fuzzy, I will work on that!

Your girls are so precious!

How crazy to meet another "Joe and Hillary" couple! I rarely even find someone with my name, let alone one married to a Joe! :)

Colorado Family Trip Day #1

Image
Well I haven't blogged in years, but have missed it so much!  Life is crazy and I want to be able to look back at all the fun we have had.  Last week, we headed to the mountains in Cuchara, CO.  We have vacationed with Joe's family to this tiny town since Molly was our only Murphy grandkid (now there are 8!). We left early Wednesday morning and we are beyond thankful that we have such great little travelers!  We made it 4 hours with NO stops.  That's amazing for all of us! Everyone beat us out there.  So we had a warm welcome from Doug, Ben & Tracy (Parker -3 and Evie 1) and Grandma Candy and Papa Tom. The cabin has a giant deck that we spend most of our time on.  There is nothing better than a cup of coffee in the morning out in the cool mountain air. Evie is now walking everywhere and smiles all the time.  It took some warming up to us, but we all won her over (until her parents were around, then she wanted them)....

Family Fun Night

  The other night the girls planned a Family Fun night for us!  We played air hockey (I won!), sang karaoke and watched some shows.  I asked the girls what they wanted to eat at the Family Fun night.  They said Hot Wings!   Lol.  Our neighbors (Dale Family Farms) sells their beef, pork and chicken from their shop at the farm.  It's so convenient to run down the road and get some wings.  Joe seasons them up with some olive oil and seasoning salt.  Grills them and dips them a few times in a mixture of Frank's Wing Sauce and butter.   I finish them under the broiler to crisp up the skin.  The wings we get at DFF are big and meaty!   I roasted some potatoes and cut up some fruit to go with our hot wings.  I should say that they are not too spicy at all.  It's always fun to eat downstairs since I'm a stickler for only eating at the dining room table or at the bar! It is fun that the girls still enjoy our company! I know th...
