Happy Birthday to Jennifer and Leah

On Thursday, October 15, Jennifer and Leah will turn 12. First of all, I can't believe they are that old. It seems like they were just born! They were the best babies; slept when you needed them to sleep, ate whatever you put in front of them and entertained us nonstop. I guess things haven't changed too much. They still go to bed without a whimper or whine and get up in the morning at the very first nudge. They still eat anything and have tried beef tongue, four cheese polenta and grilled "mystery" meat just in the past year. And finally, they still entertain us nonstop. Fueled with the energy and the competitiveness only twins can possess, they excel at volleyball, joke telling and their string instruments.
The girls hosted a birthday sleepover on Saturday night. It happened to be Bob's birthday too so the seven 6th graders sang to Bob too. Maria volunteered to be the party planner and really took the job seriously. She researched games and crafts that only preteens would enjoy. Personally, I think the party was a huge success. As you can see from the picture below, everyone had fun!
