Summer Visitors

We love relaxing summer nights with our friend Ethan.

We always have fun when the Paulie's come to visit.

Introducing Our New Little Sister

Introducing the newest Riopel...

...Cecilia Rose. We are proud big brothers!

She was born May 22, 2010 at 11:06 a.m. and weighed

7 lbs. 11 oz. and was 21 1/4 inches long.
As Jude says, "I love my baby sister, Cilia."

Happy Easter 2010

We hope you had a great Easter. Here are some pics from our weekend:

Dying eggs

Hunting Eggs

Making "angel eggs"

Lots of posing for pictures

Our soon-to-be family of 5

Christmas is coming!

We have been doing lots of preparing for Christmas. Besides our Advent wreath and countdown, we have been busy with the parade...

Waiting for the parade to start
Still waiting...but we're not cold!

Visiting Santa

"I was a little unsure at first."

Jude's turn

"I wasn't scared at all! This jolly old man gave me a whole stocking filled with candy!"

We can't wait for Christmas
This year Mom and Dad let us help put up the Christmas tree, instead of waiting until we were in bed to do it.

We had fun helping decorate and we think it looks pretty good!

Fun at the Farm

Over Thanksgiving, we got to play outside at Grandma and Papa's.

Jdue talked about this for weeks.
Jude likes to go fast.

Dominic riding with Papa.

FUN!

Pizza Hut

After tumbling class, we went to Pizza Hut. Believe it or not this was our first trip there.

We had to put this pic up to embarass our Aunt Tracy.

Then Jude wouldn't stop putting his straw up his nose-typical.

YUM! We were hungry boys after all of that tumbling!
