Bummed out.......

Unfortunately with me being laid off, we have decided we are unable to meet the Cox and Norris family's this Summer. I am very sad about this, i was so looking forward to meeting the families they had created and seeing both of my oldest friends again. We agreed that maybe we'll try again next year.

LOVE YOU GUYS!!

You will address me as......

The other day Rohan asked me for some water, as this was the 100th time i was going up the stairs for the boys, i kinda felt like his personal assistant, so when i returned i handed him his water and said

"Here you go your highness" and from Aragorn i get

"It's your Majesty MOM"

Wait.....what?

The Easter Bunny CAME!!!

Saturday we had our very 1st block Easter egg hunt. There were about 12 kids total of variing ages. I had a blast watching the boys sneak around hunting eggs and carefully putting them in their buckets.

We also attended our 1st Edge Church Easter Sunday Sermon and Easter egg hunt. My mom her friend Martin and our good friends Nicole and Berlyn joined us. I was in charge of the hunt, over 800 eggs put onto a huge field and about 80 kids that came at me!! It was crazy. But we had a good time. Unfortunatly i missed the sermon, but you can download his serman on I-Tunes. We then came home to Easter baskets left for the boys and a wonderful ham lunch. We managed to get some "Easter" pictures of the family.

Sometimes, you just gotta belt one out......

Tonight was no different that any other night lately. I tell the boys get to headed up to bed, and i get at least 10 minutes of

"WHHHHHHHHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY" from Aragron yelled as though the world is ending right in front of him. I calmly remind him, that he did not have a nap, thus he must go to bed a little earlier. This logic makes perfect sense at 12:00 nap time, but come 7:00 bedtime and all bets are off.

Anyway.........Tonight Eric started signing just to be a wise guy, and then i joined in
"I've got rhythm, I've got music, I've got my guy who could ask for anything more" The boys both join in signing at the top of their lungs, soon enough we were a family signing show tunes (we're no Von Trap family that's for sure) but it was fun, and got some energy out, cause you know we threw in some turns, and spins and some finger pointing to the sky. They both went to bed a little happier i think...........

Who knew show tunes screamed at the top of your lungs is actually good before you go to bed?

1st Zoo trip of 2010

With a high yesterday of 81, breaking the 131 year record for weather. It was HOT!! But the boys and i headed out to the zoo early so we missed any real heat. The boys had fun exploring some new animals, we usually don't see the hoofed animals, because, well, they are in the back, so it's a lot of walking. But we had nothing but time yesterday, so we took the path less walked. We got to see the hippo as she was submerged under water, and then as she poked her head up for water. Along with some strange half zebra and horse animals......Very odd.

They are expanding the zoo, and adding some elephants and other very cool animals, so they had the construction guys working, i had to laugh, here we are at the zoo, and they wanna watch the construction, oh wait, i have boys!! All in all it was a very fun day, we took a sack lunch and spent some time very good quality time, just me and my boys.
