Aftyn, expert bubble blower!

Ainsley and Seth flying high!

Gavin loved the playground at the park too!

If you've read my Sis's blog today, you will see that I have was at her house most of last week watching over her little brood. =0) We had a smashing good time too! I love to spend time outside, which isn't all that easy in Dixie this time of year, so I was excited about the nice weather for sure. The kids loved it and we made sure to do something outside everyday! The first day we went to the park, I loaded the stroller only to have Gavin run all the way there! He loved it and Seth was perfectly happy to grab his hand as they crossed the streets for me as well. Ainsley rode her bike happily there, not so happily the way back. Oh well! =0) We came back and blew bubbles in the backyard and after Gavin got up from his nap, we ran to Wal-Mart and got t-shirts to decorate with fabric markers.
The second day we went to the sandbox in the morning for a little while, but it was fairly warm and came back to play in the backyard for a little while before lunch. While Gavin napped, Seth, Ainsley, Aftyn and I decorated our t-shirts from Wal-Mart and I made one for Gavin as well. They loved it! I've done the same thing for my kids before and at 3 bucks a shirt, it's a pretty cheap project too! After Gavin woke up from his nap we drove to Lehi and got ice cream cones and played for over an hour at McDonald's! They LOVED it!
The third day was a failry quiet one, everyone played outside in the morning for quite a while and after Gavin's nap we ran to Wal-Mart and got a little food and I bought all the kids a notebook and a package of twistable/changeable markers. We also rented The Princess and the Frog from Redbox, it was a big hit too!
The last day we cleaned the house for Mommy and made sure it was nice for her to come home to! We played outside again for a little while in the morning too! It was nice for me to get away form things for a few days as well and the kids were very well behaved, even Sethee monkey! I was very happy to go home though and hug my DrakeE and Adree and my Lee too! Look what was waiting for me when I got here!


Lee and the kids went to Vegas and picked up my new van, hooray! After almost 6 weeks of no vehicle, it has been great to have. It drives nice and is comfy too, the kids love it! I'll try harder to stop being so whiny about losing my good van! =0)
