Blog Day # 161 in a day of my life. Happiness is family-celebrating THREE BIRTHDAYS!

     Once a year it comes around. Everyone has a birthday, however, how many birthdays are all celebrated on the same day each year in one family, by a mother and two daughters? I do not know what the chanch's of that are, but I believe it to be rather rare.



A MOTHER'S LOVE- A GENTLE KISS-TIMES TWO-SO SMALL-SO PRECIOUS.

Two years ago, Taylor and Cassidy were born. Very small- 3.8 lbs and 4.6 lbs or there about. 32 1/2 weeks. I remember the day we took Cassidy home, who was the smallest. Taylor raised up , and I swear she knew we were going and taking Cassidy. That image is forever burned into my mind. It was only for a couple days. They were extremely healthy for premature babies, but there is always caution.

  THE PROUD PARENTS. TAMMY & MARCUS

AND NOW TODAY, TWO YEARS LATER- OUR LITTLE GIFTS FROM HEAVEN!



CASSIDY AND HER HANDS ABOUT TO CLASP-TAYLOR HOLDING ONTO HER SKIRT!
SO ALIKE BUT OH SO DIFFERENT-NEVER FAR AWAY FROM ONE ANOTHER-BUT ALWAYS GOING IN DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS. TWO PEAS IN A POD-BUT ENTIRELY DIFFERENT PERSONALITIES-SHARING THE SAME BIRTH DATE.



THIS IS HOW THEIR DAY GOES-BOTH AROUND TOGETHER-BUT ENTIRELY EXPLORING AND PLAYING DIFFERENTLY- BUT NEVER FAR APART. I WONDER IF THIS WILL FOLLOW THEM THROUGH OUT LIFE? I HOPE SO-TO BE CLOSE AS SIBLINGS!



        THE BEGINNING OF THE BIRTHDAY PARTY AT GREAT AMERICAN FARMS.



I WILL SHOW DIFFEWRENT PICTURES OF OVER 40 FAMILY AND FRIENDS WHO GATHERED TO HELP CELEBRATE THE TWINS BIRTHDAY.

SO AS I WIND DOWN THE FIRST PART OF THE DAY-IT WAS A GRAND TIME!



 IF YOU WANT A PLACE FOR CHILDREN TO INTER REACT WITH THE FARM AND TH ANIMALS- THEY HAD EXOCTIC PETS AS WELL AS FARM ANIMALS-THIS IS THE PLACE TO GO. THREE HOURS WENT BY VERY FAST!

WE HAD OUR OWN SPECIAL BUILDING-AND IT WAS CLEAN-AND LOTS OF TABLES!




            WE BROUGHT OUR OWN FOOD- BUT THERE IS A RESTRAUNT THERE.

ALL IN ALL- IT WAS A GOOD MORNING AND THE KIDS LOVED IT! AS WELL DID THE ADULTS-THERE WERE SLIDES-MAZE'S-PLAY GROUNDS-ANIMALS-PONDS-BOUNCE-AND A LOT MORE.


HAPPY BIRTHDAY GIRLS-IT WAS A FAMILY-FRIEND EXPERIENCE-AT GREAT AMERICAN FARM!

AND THEN- FOR PART TWO- WE HEADED ACROSS THE ROAD AND UP THE HILL TO BLUMONT- WINERY FOR TAMMY'S PARTY. IT WAS PERFECT-NOT FAR TO DRIVE AND BREATH TAKING ONCE YOU GET TO THE TOP.


               BLUMONT WINERY-THROUGH THE MIST- TO THE TOP OF THE HILL!

YOU CAN SEE CLEAR TO TYSONS CORNER FROM HERE-AND THAT MUST BE 40 MILES AWAY! SO - I WILL FINISH NOW AND WILL CONTINUE PART TWO OF OUR BIRTHDAY TIMES THREE!
