Birthday with the Grandparents

It was Grandparents Day on April 20th at Paige's School, so both sets of their grandparents came for the weekend.  (Though once again I have no pictures of any of them.  Grandma's - if you have pics with Paige will you get me a copy?)

So because they were all going to be here and it was exactly between the girls' birthday's we decided to celebrate that weekend.  Paige to a new "2 wheel scooter" from Nana and Papa.  She has been wanting one since last fall and they've been hanging on to it for a long time for her.

They gave Lainey a Strawberry Shortcake Polly set.

Uncle Mat, Aunt Myra, Skylar, and Ariana gave the girls new S.S. dolls and Walkie Talkies.  They LOVE their "Talkie Talkie's".

Both sets of Grandparents went together and got the girls each a set of Barbie Furniture.

They were so excited to open each new piece of furniture.

This isn't your normal furniture.  The lights all turn on, the water actually works from the faucets, washing machine and bathtub, and the bed plays a lullaby.  I would have totally loved this a kid.



Now is when they got their big present from Mommy and Daddy.





Daddy made them each a dollhouse!!!!  He did an awesome job!  As you can see they are very big and come with working lights and working elevator.  Yes, a real working elevator.  Can you even begin to imagine having this as a child?! 




As you can see they were pretty excited and loved setting up all their new furniture.

You may even catch Daddy playing at night after the girls go to bed!;)

All set up in their new home.

The two have slide together to look like a big house and Mark painted it the color of our house, complete with a red front door!
