Is it an Alien?

How can you be serious with bright green glittered hair? Hope you had an informative Earth Day!

Buy Me Some Peanuts and Cracker Jack

We went to one of the first baseball games of the year with a friend and her boys and had lots of fun. They had an Easter Egg hunt throughout the stadium and they also had an amusement park area. Bella spent the entire time of the merry-go-round and the boys were all over the place. They had a person mission to ride every animal on the merry-go-round, but they were very fond of the monkey in the blue jeans. I think we saw about 20 minutes of the game and Bella saw about 2 minutes. The park was just too much fun for them! Perhaps next time we should take the hint and go to an amusement park instead.

Happy Birthday Sweetie!

May all of your birthday wishes soar up to the sky sweetie - we love you!

Hippity Hoppity Sugar High

We had an action packed Easter this year. We dyed eggs as usual. Usual meaning way past bedtime and the customary I forgot the white vinegar trip to the grocery store.

At leas the Easter Bunny was a little more prepared and the baskets were all set shortly after our little bunnies went to bed.
Easter morning is a lot like Christmas at our house. They love the Easter goodies and primarily look forward to an East Breakfast of Champions consisting of Chocolate bunnies, jelly beans and whatever they can stuff in their mouths before brunch.

We then headed to Church so the volunteers in the rooms could enjoy our sugar induced madness. Based on the noise level I would say our kids were not the only ones eating chocolate bunnies for breakfast.

After Church came brunch and then the Easter Egg Hunt! Oh Boy - More Chocolate!

Then off to Grandmom's house for more candy! Bella enjoyed some quiet time on the porch swing with Daddy and the Boy learned that not all toys need batteries.

Then off to our cousin's house for more food and a birthday celebration. Oh and even more candy! I think the kids are just coming down from the sugar high!

Fruits and Veggies - Perhaps

Every year I say that I am going to grow a garden from seeds and this year I actually did it! Well, I haven't really done it yet since they are still little tiny plants, but we have high hopes! In my Mom Fantasy World I thought that this would be a good way to get them interested in eating veggies, but I know that won't be the case (:

Happy Friday

This is what I saw out of my office window today. It's nice to live in an area with such beautiful scenery. The doggy next door scared them so I had to take a quick shot.

Our son took a field trip to the local businesses to learn about commerce. First stop Wal-Mart where they learned the Wal-Mart cheer and they also got to go behind the curtain so to say and took a peek into the big freezer which was the highlight of the trip. They also liked the box crusher. Next stop was lunch, pizza of course. Then off to the bank where the only questions revolved around the bank robbery that happened a few weeks back. Next to the fire house and then to Safeway. The Boy has learned the art of becoming the volunteer from Church. Essentially he stands within close proximity to the person he deems will be selecting volunteers and then he stretches his hand waaaaaay up high and flashes his baby blues. In this case he got to push the button to grind the meat - yuck. It's fun to see him in his element.
