I still can't believe my babies were born on the same day.... It is so special they get to share birthdays and it sure makes for some fun and creative parties to come.
Ally turned 1 and Seany turned 3!!! We celebrated on Labor Day, (which was the day Ally was born last year). We had lots of friends and family over and enjoyed a yummy BBQ and lots of sweet treats!
Here's a few pics of our Birthday girl Allison Nicole:
Here's a few pics of our big boy Sean:

Some of our friends & family that shared in Ally and Sean's special day:
My babies are growing so fast! Andy will be 7 in just a short couple of months, Sean is totally potty-trained, and my Ally will be walking before I know it.... I'm loving every second of every day I get to spend with my 3 monkeys they really are so special to me!
I surprised my hubby with tickets to the John Mayer Concert for our Anniversary.... We had amazing seats- 5th row and smack in the center. It was the best gift ever. Tom loves John Mayer, he is an extremely talented guitarist and musician overall. He rocked!!!
Tom told me that- The only thing better than seeing JM in concert would be playing on stage with him----- ummmm that's a hard one, don't know how I'll pull that off. Any ideas??
We spent 5 wonderful days in Colorado last week and had an incredible time playing. The boys loved hanging out with their cousins and grandma and grandpa Savage.
Jan, Hailey, Ally and I had 2 days out on the town-- girls only. Jan always makes sure to spoil us girls.... We ate at delicious restaurants with amazing atmosphere and food that is out of this world good, toured the Molly Brown Mansion, and saw "The South Pacific" Musical--- I loved, loved, loved it!
Here's some of the yummy food:
While the men went to the drag races, we took the little kids to Water World. That was a total blast... it's like Seven Peaks on steroids & about 10 times bigger, with thrilling rides that Andy & Sean could not get enough of. I was so amazed at how brave Sean was-- he was not scared of anything and kept saying "again" as he ran to get on the rides.
We played games, told stories around the fire, laughed, joked, and spent some quality family time.
Our trip was well overdue and I'm so glad we got a chance to visit and loved every minute of our stay! Andy & Sean keep asking when we get to go back to see grandma and grandpa---- hopefully soon, till then we'll have some great memories and pictures to remember all the good times!
What kid doesn't love going to the park??? and my kids are no exception! They have sooooo much fun playing, climbing, jumping, sliding, swinging, and running around!
My kids love playing in the sprinklers- just look at Sean's face and you will see one little boy who is having a blast!
This is definately one of the many things we enjoy about the summer months- lots of water and fun!
Time has flown by.... my baby girl is almost 1 year old!
This is what Ally was upto last month-at 9 months old. - Posing for a million picture in all her cute outfits - playing with big brother Andy who absolutely adores her- he makes her laugh so much - Going to the park- Ally is all girl, she is scared of the slide and anything that seems a little dangerous. It's definately something new for us since our boys have always been so wild and daring. - Sticking her tongue out and figuring out her new teeth (2 bottom and 2 top). - Spending lots of time with mom- she's my little companion- with me everywhere I go! - Playing with her baby cousin Broderick- those 2 love eachother already- they smile and smile at eachother and have little baby conversations - Standing up all by herself and crawling all over the house, even up the stairs- scary! - Trying out new foods like mangoes, black beans and rice, mashed potatoes, arepitas.....
Ally is by far my sweetest baby she loves to snuggle her mommy and daddy and is always happy- smiling from ear to ear. So far I've been blessed with 3 super happy babies! and I feel like the luckiest mom in the world!
