Spring Break 2012

This week I have had all three kiddos home with me. On Tuesday while Parker was at MDO, I took the older two to Chuck-e-cheese and they had a blast. It was also fun for me because I was not having to watch them the entire time. I enjoyed my time with the older two. It doesn't happen enough.

This week has been a little chaotic because we are all out of routine. I am a very routine person and need that and when daddy is away and mommy is alone, I seem to just go with the flow. Dishes in the sink, kids sleeping in every other bed except their own, and no set bedtimes. Yep that's how we roll on spring break. Just need to have fun sometimes and sometimes that means waiting until morning to do dishes and staying up late to watch that show that they have been wanting to watch. But with all those changes comes chaos!! Yep, it can make for some grouchy kids and a grouchy mama especially when mama bear is playing both rolls! We are all ready for daddy to come home! This week Baylee had her awards day and Braden started coaches pitch. I have no pictures from those. Some way in syncing my phone they are lost! I am hoping to find them soon! I mean how far can they go? I guess they got lost somewhere in the cord that connects from computer to phone! Anyway back on subject- This evening we went to the park and let the kids burn off some energy. They had a good time but Baylee was sick with a headache so we had to cut it short! Hope everyone is having a great week! Tomorrow my man returns:))

Soapbox Derby Parade

Baylee had the opportunity this past Friday to represent Braden's Den (Tiger Cubs) in the Soapbox derby parade. She had such a fun time and so did Braden. Braden and his daddy were able to ride in the fire truck in the parade since he was the only tiger cub that showed up so he was so excited about that. They had a little pageant with the few girls that represent the other dens. They throw all of the girls names in a hat and choose one. Baylee's name was not chosen but she still had a great time.

Easter 2012 Style

For Easter this year we went down to the "lot" and had a crawfish boil! I normally ask my father in law to boil crawfish for my Birthday so those chose to do it for Birthday and Easter:)
The kids love it down there because they have free reign and can run around and play outside all day. My husband tends to love it mostly bc he rode the jet ski all day! LITERALLY! All of the kids enjoyed riding the jet ski also. Fun times making memories.

Bahamas Trip

Of course I am so far behind on blogging. I just can't find the time in the day to blog even though I love to keep up with our everyday.

I figured I would start off with a post about our amazing trip to the Bahamas. Well we won this trip at Marriage Conference. Can I say AMAZING! The most dreadful part (for me) was the flight. I do not like to fly-at all! Our trip was awesome. I enjoyed spending 7 days with my man. We had time to talk and just enjoy each other. We were able to go to one of the top 5 beaches in the world-Gold Rock Beach. It was breathtaking. I really believe that heaven will have a beach like that. I can't imagine what the number 1 beach would look like!

As for our 3 kiddos, I don't think they missed us a bit! They were back at home with maw-maw and paw-paw enjoying the break from us. You know grandparents let them do some different things and of course they love it.
Thank you for being the best maw-maw and paw-paw ever and for keeping our kids for a week!
