Life Happens!

It has been awhile since I have updated this page. We have done so many fun things. One day we took the kids to The Living Sea Aquarium and they got to feed stingray. That was really cool. They loved walking around watching all the fish. They even have a pond with baby sharks in them. It was a very cool outing. Friday we took a trip to the 'port' to meet up with some friends of mine. Corrie just had a baby boy, Finn, and Danielle is getting ready to get married. Corrie was in J and I's wedding! It was great to see those girls. Then we stopped in the town halfway to see our friends that live there. We were planning on spending the night but the kids were so wired that they wouldn't go to sleep. It was 3 hours past their bedtimes and there was no sleep in sight. So I packed them up and headed home. They all were out in a matter of minutes. Saturday GG had a gymnastics birthday party the second of three she has been invited too. We all went and had a blast. The kids made visors with stickers, a very cute idea. Then they got to play in the gym. Monkey was having a blast. It was the first time he had been there but GG was an old pro! Red even wore himself out crawling and walking (with assistance) all over the place. Today we had church which is always great. It was the first time our sunday school class has been together in about 5 weeks. It was nice to see everyone. This afternoon we spent outside hanging out with the neighbors. Alyssa (the 9 yr old that lives across the street) took GlamorGirl and Monkey over to her driveway to fill up water balloons. They ended up getting soaked with the hose. They were having so much fun we could hear their giggles across the street! It was the first time they have done water balloons. Next time they are going to wear their swimming suits. Craig (Alyssa's dad) took Red for a long walk while the other two were playing in water it felt like I had no kids!!! I just got to chill and talk with Jean, Marilyn and Jack. Then I packed a dinner picnic and we met J at a park for dinner. The kids were super excited about getting to have a picnic and then play :) J and I started talking about the activities we want to do with the kids this summer. We are going to have so much fun. Only 3 days of school left...
