Sleepover fun

-
Walker has slept over 3 times at a friends' house from school this year. Each time, it drives Lucy bonkers. SHE wants a friend to sleep over, but she's really too young (don't EVER tell her that) and she doesn't have any friends ready for that. Well, my best friend and I came up with a brilliant plan (if I do say so myself). Our kids are very comfortable around each other and also around the same age. I had her twins in my class this year, and the kids all get along very well. We decided I would take the boys and she would take the girls. Lucy went to her house with her 2 girls, and her son came to me. We all had a great time and they are already asking when we can plan the next one!! I think they both really enjoyed it just being boys :)

We kept sending each other pictures and texting about how well it was going. The girls did makeup, painted nails, decorated cookies and watched Hannah Montana: The Movie. Lucy had so much fun!!
Walker was so excited that afternoon, he decided he needed to make a checklist. He totally got this from me, and I love it that he does this!!! The top right says M, W and i for Mama, Walker and Isaac (everybody that was participating).
Park was first up. It was so hot, but they really had fun and it tired them out! These boys have so much energy, you really have to work to wear them out :)We followed the checklist to a "T". For the movie they watched G-Force, and they went to bed at a pretty decent hour. They both slept through the night and woke happy and ready to sword!!

Jason was off Saturday, and I was really looking forward to a family weekend. He usually works Saturdays, but when he is off and we get 2 days in a row all together, we are so happy!! Friday night he called on his way home from work, and told the kids to get dressed in their cowboy boots, we were going somewhere. The kids got so excited, and ran to their rooms. Lucy got some new cowgirl boots for Christmas (2 pairs, actually), and has been wearing them alot!! They got all dressed up in their cowboy stuff and we waited for Daddy to get home. He took us to Trail Dust Steakhouse in Arlington, and he invited my sisters, too. It was so fun!! I hadn't been there since my 16th birthday party, and the kids had a blast; sliding down the slide, dancing on the dance floor and eating yummy steak. It was such a fun night!!! If you wear a tie, they cut it off and put it on their wall!! He wore an old tie on purpose The weekend just kept getting better!! Yesterday, Jason and I had a great date ni...

Well, you find things like this in your backyard: There are lots of fun things about living "out" here and having more than an acre of land to explore. We have roadrunners, roosters, chickens, lizards (apparently!), bonfires, and lots of fun. The kids were so intrigued. They have really developed a love for animals and outdoors A close up of our friend

Happy Spring Break to Walker and Lucy!!

This week Walker and Lucy are off from ARK School. They are actually NOT excited, they love school!! Caitlin is home this week, too, though so that is fun. We had a great weekend to end my break and kick off the kids. Saturday , we drove to a drive-in theater in Granbury. Colleen (my friend and Walker's teacher) told us about this drive-in and it was showing Horton Hears a Who!, so we decided to check it out. I am so glad there is still one around. Drive-ins are just one of those things I have great memories of and want to do with my kids. At the drive-in, with a good spot. Being comfy in our jim jammers!! Enjoying our picnic dinner. Fruit skewers, pb&j roll-ups, and cheetos!! Sunday , we had a great family lunch at mom's, then it was off to the TCU Easter Egg Hunt. The kids looked so cute, and had fun hunting eggs. However, they could not be persuaded to take pictures with the Easter Bunny or Super Frog. Oh, well. Lucy, looking around for some eggs Showing off his loot! My...
