The kids had fun collecting balls at a couple ORU baseball games.
A first for our family-dying Easter Eggs. All the kids had fun except Andrea who screamed most of the time as she wanted to drink the dye.
This is what Jack loves to do-hours he lays with this computer.
The house has not had a lot of quiet moments these past couple of days. Today we had a lot of fun with Amy, Dave and kids. After braving the park, which we had totally to ourselves seeing as we are the only crazy people to head out in 40 degree weather we decided on the Aquarium. We actually went to see something new this time-a shark feeding. It was a lot of fun and the kids loved watching the sharks eat the squid, shrimp and fish. Seems like although we might go quite a bit we always learn something new. Today was the spitting fish-did you know that there are fish that spit out of the water to catch their food???? Dave actually saw them in action.
The kids have been busy, even though it was very cold today they had a great baseball game outside. The boys are very funny and just love to run the bases. Brayden doesn't really care about getting out he just sees how far he can make it before getting out.
We thankfully found some new girl bikes and so Becca could join in the evening bike ride. What a bunch with 2 three year olds on training wheels, two 4year olds on big bike plus a stroller, scooter and dog.
Tonight we had a collective birthday celebration for the month of April-Brayden and Peter. We spent part of the morning baking a checkerboard cake with LOTS of helpers, who were mainly in it for the cleaning up part which always involves a lot of licking. It will be sad to see them head out tomorrow as the kids have just loved all the extra attention and other kids to play with. Although it has been busy we have had a lot of fun memories.
Yes-I do have to say that I survived this past week and weekend mainly do to the fact that Sat was girls day and night away (thanks to a wonderful husband). Yup-we headed down to Ok city for the day and I actually was able to get a good nights sleep with out being interrupted with crying, food requests or bad dreams-WONDERFULLY RELAXING.
