Day at the beach.... hypothermia included free of charge!!!

We decided to hit up the beach today! It was a balmy 17 degrees and sunny and we figured it would be nice enough for us to enjoy the sand and water!! It was FREEZING!!! The water is always cold there but the wind was really strong and seemed to be right out of the north! Both girls ended up freezing so we headed home after about 1 1/2 hrs and threw them in a warm bath to warm them back up!!! Hypothermia in July!!! Woohoo!!


Building her sandcastle. This was the little girl who last summer couldn't handle having a speck of sand on her! Amazing what a year will do!!


Lily filling her bucket! She was all about the sand and water!!


These next 4 pictures were taken in succession and show Lily falling into the water. Once she noticed that there was water, she beelined it right to the edge and walked right in. She LOVES the water and would have gone all the way over her head if she could!! I love how Madi doesn't even really move at all in these photos. She is a bit more timid around water!





Even after falling in and soaking her beach cover she was all about splashing and playing, until she was so cold and shaking that David had to pick her up and carry her to me to wrap in a towel... little monkey!


Madi was a bit more unsure about getting in..... but eventually she got in!


She was like the energizer bunny.. she kept going and going and going!!!


Sweet Madi girl


See... she got in... and then quickly out and built a dam with David. She thought it was the best thing ever!!


She was so mad that she had to get out.. but she could hardly stand she was shaking so badly... little lily beanie!

Canada Day ( my bday!!)

The night before Canada Day Madi woke up sick to her stomach and we were all up really late ( except for Lily... she kept right on sleepin!! ) dealing with all that! July 1st came bright and early for us in the Mobach household. Madi was feeling somewhat better but still not 100% but was adamant that she wanted to got the parade, and since it goes right by our house we figured it would be ok!

It was really windy, cold and rainy ( check out the storm clouds in the back ) but the rains held off long enough for us to enjoy the parade. Madi wasn't totally herself but she said she had fun!


Lily looking for a rock to throw!! She has a good arm!


She found one that she liked!


And let it fly!!


My little sick princess... putting on a brave face!!!

David's bday.....

We had to celebrate David's birthday a couple of days late cause he was working on the actual day but we made up for it!! I made a yummy Mocha Torte ( Mobach family tradition) and Madi and I decorated the living room with my streamers from Holland and some balloons ( for those who care the balloons are still blown up in some way, shape or form and the girls still play with them everyday!)


David blowing out his candles ( I know there aren't 29 of them but that gets pricey!!)


Madi LOVES Mocha cake... as you can tell by her face!


While David was cutting our pieces the cake slide right off the cake plate and onto the table!!! David just swooped it right back up!! It was pretty funny!


Can someone please explain why this little girl is still so little!! Look at the way she jams her food into her mouth!! She ate that whole plate.. there was cake/icing everywhere!! It definately turned into bath night!


Cutie pie Madi with her plate of cake!
