Happy Kiddos, a cabin & last week

day 61: Monday, March 2 the morning began with a 2 hour school delay. This was my kiddos reaction an hour later when I told them, "school is now closed."

days 58 - 60: We packed up & headed to the hills for a little "R & R" with 4 other couples from our small group at church. We always have fun, but a little bit of the white fluffy stuff would have been a welcomed activity!

This is the cabin we stayed in and the creek that flows behind it.

Saturday afternoon we pulled out the 4-wheelers and the kiddos had a BLAST! Nichole was very excited because this year we let her ride all by herself.

Ty just looks like he is having way to much fun. He Y's speed & that concerns me just a little :-/

Who needs a swing-set when you got hay bales! The kiddos spent hours playing tag in them.

Thanks for the memories small group!!!____________________________________________

day 58: My dad call this morning at 7:15 a.m. and our conversation went something like this:
dad: "Sissy. What are you doing?"
me: "Well I'm getting the kiddos of to school and packing to go away for the weekend. What are you doing?"
dad: "Painting."

me: "What are you painting now?"

dad: "Oh . . . the family & TV room. I thought you might want to help."

me: "I guess I could help you for a while. I'll get the kiddos on the bus and head over."

dad: "Well you don't have to bins your going away this weekend."

me: "No, you helped me with Nichole's room. I can help until noon."

dad: "Oh. Okay. I'll see you later then."

me: "Alright. I'll be over in half an hour. See ya later."

color: cowboy tan
We were finished one room in just 3 hours. If we're not careful - we might just find ourselves in a new business.

day 57: Tyler after musical practice, (Pirates), for the 6th grade play. He tried out for a lead role, but settled for a prisoner's role. He only has 2 lines and he's cool with that because of all the other activities he is involved with. The musical is a pretty big commitment, 2-3 practices a week plus band and baseball will begin this week which will keep him moving almost every day.

day 56: We don't usually eat out in the middle of the week, we save that for weekends, but that day I had to cater a funeral meal at our church under my new role of kitchen coordinator. After spending most of the day in a kitchen, the last thing I wanted to do was make supper. So we headed to our favorite restaurant!!
