St. Patrick's Day 2013


My little Irish girls were all ready to go to the annual O'Knutson party.

Here are all the cousins together.

It was tough to get all the little lassies and our one little lad to look in the same direction!

Traditional Shamrock Glasses Pic

 Kyle and Gwyneth

I thought this was a cute shot of Gwyneth and Tess playing in the dollhouse together.

Most of the kids ganged up on Grandpa Dale.

Here's the Little Leprechaun table.

Kyri couldn't get enough corned beef!

Grady was wearing his flat top hat...too bad the pic came out so dark!

The rainbow jello was a big hit.

Actually, all the desserts were pretty exciting!

We had the annual viewing of "The Quiet Man".

Although, I'm not sure anyone could hear it...

But, everyone had fun!!

The next day, Kyri kept talking about how cool it was to have all of her cousins together at the same time!  Grandma Nancy outdid herself with the food and accessories this year, too!

Twins' Birthdays X 2

Both sets of twins from our family celebrated their birthdays these past two weekends.  Here are some pictures of all the cuties...

Lillian and Gwyneth Turned 2!!
To celebrate, we met up with them at a fun play place in Woodfield Mall.  The place was perfect for the kids' ages, and they all had a blast playing together.

I can't believe how much the girls are growing and changing.  Gwyneth and Lillian are learning new words every day and they are going through all the fun phases of their age.

 Right now, Gwyneth seems to be my snuggle buddy, and Lillian is always exploring a new adventure!
Charlie, Kyri, and Tessa had fun helping the twins celebrate.

 Haha!  Check out their hair!



Lil and Tess needed a break after a fun day of playing!



Then...

Morgyn and Grady turned 1 !!
We celebrated their golden birthdays at their house with tons of family and friends!

Morgyn is so smart and is like a little parrot these days with her talking. So far, she has been the most easy going of all five Knutson grandchildren.   Grady is still the energizer bunny and always on the move.  Although, I've heard he is a snuggler when he is tired... I've yet to see that!

 With all the kids at the party, the basement became one giant toy pit!
  Both Grandpas kept an eye on all the kids while they were playing so nobody got hurt.

And, as always, there were lots of helpers during presents!

 Pop got all festive, too!

Cake time!!

Grady dug in right away, but Morgyn took her sweet time.

 Haha!  They both had blue beards!


Tess was pretty excited about the cupcakes, too.

Snuggle time with Uncle Kyle at the end of a fun night...



We also celebrated Laurel's birthday last weekend, too.
 Here she is with her five granddaughters.


This was the best shot we got straight on, but all of their eyes look scary!!!!

We have a lot more birthdays to celebrate in the next couple of months, so I will keep the pictures coming...
