Happy 8th Birthday Twinsies!

This is a very BIG birthday for the twins - as well as the Hart family!  This year, the twins turned 8.  This means the end of car seats for the Hart Family!!!  Here are the 4 kids - ALL of them enjoying a small taste of freedom (Maddie & Will for the first time).  Of course, even though excited, they both said they don't like sitting on cold seats!
Both Maddie & Will decided that they wanted to celebrate their birthday at Happy Joes.  They love seeing their names on the marquee...
A fun tradition of Happy Joe's birthdays - singing Happy Birthday with the horn and siren!  We added Ashten to the song since his birthday is the same week.
Part of the family - Fran & John (with Ashten), Grammy & Barb.
 Second round of singing - this time with the cakes from Grammy & Grandad.  This year was Frozen and Despicable Me 2!
 Time to open presents!  Will got a Darth Vader Light Saber.  He had some money and he purchased the Darth Vader talking mask at Target on the way home!
 Maddie - reading the card from Grammy & Grandad (and hoarding the check!)
 Maddie was so excited to pick this present out when we were at the Mall of America in October.  It is a feeding chair for her baby dolls.
 More Star Wars Legos for Will
 Will telling Barb & Willy thank you for the Star Wars Legos
 Loving their musical birthday cards from Stephanie.
 Will's big gift was the Rancor Pit (Star Wars Legos).  He was so excited to get it and had it put together within an hour. 
I love having so much of our family so close!  What special memories my kids will have - memories of fun times, laughs, hugs, kisses and many, many hours spent together.  All special!

We stopped at Target on the way home to pick up some things.  After dinner, the girls asked if they could share a bed.  Not an easy thing to do with 3 girls in one twin bed!  We gave the okay and this is what we found a few hours later!  Take note that Alex (blue) is not even on the bed but wedged between the bed and the wall!
