Random Everyday Moments

So, life has been pretty crazy for us in the Kaplin household the past couple of months...but I wanted to post a few pics of some of the things we've been up to lately!  Most of these pics reflect our random everyday kind of moments, which make life fun and enjoyable :)

Of course, some of our most favorite everyday moments involve spending time with friends!



The girls have really enjoyed painting lately, especially when I give them the go-ahead to paint each other!!
Now, most of the time...their painting of each other involves painting faces and hands...



However, on one particular day...they decided to be extra creative and, after creating splatter paint art...they expanded their "canvas" to include their legs and feet!!



Megan enjoys any chance to hang out with Daddy...here she is helping Daddy make some eggs before church!



And, of course...an afternoon at the park in the Spring is always a huge hit...we've been there a lot lately and have been loving every minute of it!!


We also enjoyed an evening while Grandma & Papa were in town visiting going to the ECC's Annual Family Fun Night.  The girls always having a great time doing some of their favorite activities, games, face painting, crafts, etc.




Megan was also THRILLED to run into a girl she lovingly refers to as "Brookie", who is the older sister of one of her preschool friends, Vanessa.  She bonded with Brooke a few weeks ago at Vanessa's birthday party and she would not leave Brooke's side the whole night.  Alexia also enjoyed hanging out with Vanessa's older brother.




The funniest, most eye-opening moment, in the evening happened while we were looking at all of Megan's artwork and projects that were hung on the wall in the fellowship hall.  Each preschooler picked 3 or 4 pieces to have displayed...below is the one that will definitely be added to Megan's preschool scrapbook!


Well...at least she is clear about her top priorities...lol.


Every once in a while, it strikes me just how fast the girls are growing up...here are a few recent snapshots of them that have really shown this reality!  I am truly treasuring these years even though they are flying by!
