Time at the Park

We went to the Park last Saturday. The weather has been so nice that we have been spending a lot of time out doors. I love this weather. We had so much fun. We tried to fly a kite, perfect weather for kite, but not a very good kite. I'll have to get them a better kite. The kids had fun trying anyways.

Fun in the Sun

We went to the beach today. We had a blast. The water was a little cold but you could get use to it, if it wasn't for the crabs nipping at your toes. There were little crapbs everywhere and after Melissa got bit, the kids wouldn't get in the water very much. But it was a beautiful day. They played in the sands and then we fed the birds. Once we brought out the food they starting swarming us. You could hold a chip up and they would come and get it right out of our hands. After that Melissa and I decided to be brave and try to catch a crab for the kids. She managed to catch two. The kids thought they were so cool, they didn't want us to put them back in the water. It was such a perfect day.

A Day at the Zoo

We went to the zoo yesterday. We didn't get too many pictures becaused it rained on us the whole time. It kind of stunk. We didn't see too many animals as they were all looking for shelter to stay dry. We didn't see too many and animals and we started to get a little cold as the more we got soaked, but it gives us an excuse to go back another day. The highlight was seeing a white alligator, which was pretty neat.

Disney World

We went to Disney on Valentine's Day with my sister, Margaret and her family. I don't have that many pics because my batteries died right after we got there. The weather had been warm before my sister got here and the morning we woke to go it had gotten cold and we weren't really dressed for it, but we still had a good time. The lines were short and we got to do almost everything we wanted, but we did not ride Thunder Mountain but we ran out of time. The kids favorite was the Buzz Lightyear ride where you get to shoot things and the RaceTrak. I rode with Meriah who drove our car. I laughed so hard and we both got whiplash. They added Captain Jack Sparrow the Pirates of Caribbean ride and the likeness was uncanny. It was cool. We really enjoyed being able to go Margaret and her family. Caleb just loved his cousin, Grace. He followed her everywhere and wanted to go on all the rides with her. I wish we were albe to live close to each other so the kids could grow up together. Overall, even though I was a little chilly it was a really nice day.

Breana's History Fair Project

Breana was learning about conflicts and compromise in History, around World War II. So after she finally narrowed her topic down, she picked Rosie the Riveter. She did a really good job on her project and it turned out well.

Happy Birthday to Our Friends

Happy Birthday to Brennan, Connor, and Taylor!!! We had a blast at their birthday party. It was a nice day and perfect weather. Emma could not get enough of the snow cones!!! Regan was such a good big sister and kept making them for her. Thanks for the fun time!!!

My 35th Birthday

Last month I turned 35!!! I know I know. I'm getting old. But this year I decied to embrace my age, so I decided I needed a new look. Little did I know, my wonderful husband had a suprise in store for me. He got home from work in the morning of my birthday. He woke me up and told me to get in the shower and not to worry about my hair or my make-up. I had to be ready in 20 minutes, because Melissa was on her way to pick me up. They had planned a whole day for me. Melissa and I got manicures and pedicures. Then we went and got haircuts. I caught off 17 inches and it will be going to Locks of Love. By the way one of the stylists said I have style now! It's nice to be told you didn't really have any style!!! Melissa and I just laughed. Melissa had set up a make-up consulting appointment for me with Clinique. That was probably way over due since I have been doing my make-up the same way for about the last 15 years. Then I went shopping for a new outfit for my birthday dinner. Tucker had dinner reservations at Ruth's Chris steakhouse for me and some of our friends. They have the best steaks you will ever have. It was a really nice dinner. I had an absolutely wonderful birthday. Tucker did an awesome job and he really suprised me. I have to say it was one of the best birthdays ever if not the best! Thank you to my wonderful, thoughtful husband, whom I love so much.
