future rock star?

Now that we are on virtual house arrest after 8pm we decided to invest in some in home entertainment. Settling on an Xbox (and feeling like a 14 year old in line at Best buy) we also got the requisite Rock Band. Turns out Violet is born to rock. She will grab the guitar or set up the drums and say "mama I want to rock out". Don't know where she could have gotten all that hamminess, Ron?

Ava Sergesketter turns 2!

This Saturday we enjoyed some pizza and PB&J cupcakes at the Serge's. We witnessed a dozen or so 1-3 year olds doing laps around the their house as well as "feats of strength" by the 2-yr-olds. Pinatas are always fun for children but it took many valiant whacks from Papa Steve and some manual ripping to expose the hidden treasure inside. We all had a lot of fun. Here are a few photos of the event.

In our effort to document and share the kids daily life with our far flung friends and family the Payne's have gone high tech (hee hee) and created a blog. Hope this will be fun.
