Easter Weekend
Should we go or should we stay?
We weren't sure what to do for the Holiday weekend. The coast sounded like a good idea. Camping at the lake sounded good too. I was game for anything, so I just let my man decide.
Well, we stayed.. and decided to get to building a storage shed.
We looked into buying a pre-made one. WAY too expensive. For the size we needed, it would be around $1,500. Um, no. Long story short, we bought the materials (1/3 of premade!) and got busy. Well, he got busy, I was the gopher... and mostly there for entertainment and moral support. hahaha. Hey, at least I broke a sweat the first day. :P
Mallory came down with a fever on Saturday, which continued thru today. So glad we stayed home. It would have put a damper on our trip had we taken one. She's got a cough, upset tummy and fever. Poor baby. I stayed home from church to take care of her. The boys went though. So, needless to say, we didnt do much for Easter. Grammy and grampy came by and brought us baskets. (separately, my parents are divorced)
Grammy hooked it up! woah! Best Easter basket ever!
Grampy brought us a cute little green basket... and some peeps.
Luckily, the neighbors let my kids join in on their egg hunt. I sent them over with some eggs and their baskets. I'm glad they didnt miss out.

Spring Break....
Spring break has come and gone. Went by too fast.
It was nice while it lasted.
Its funny, I read about how other moms dread having their kids home for the break and I just dont get it! Maybe I have well behaved kids? Maybe my annoyance threashold is higher than normal? Who knows, I all know is that I enjoyed it. Cant wait for summer break. :)
We didnt go anywhere. Johnny had some dental work scheduled and that pretty much took up our fun money. Hanging out at home was fun too. We filled the sandbox so that kept them occupied for a long while. Koral and Christian stayed over.
The highlight was a trip to Austin's Park and Pizza. We left early and made a day of it.
Mr. Joe Cool
mini golf
Mallory was a drama queen most of the day.
Upset becuase her cousins sprayed him from the bumper boats... you wont melt little one.
First (and last) time playing Laser Tag. She didnt like it.
The tooth fairy also came to visit!
