Spring Break!

Spring Break started with a trip to Wonderland!

What's for breakfast there you ask? Well, donuts of course! And what better way to eat them then on the back porch!

Even Emerlyn got in on the donut action!
Driving around the yard...

Emmy too!
Then time for riding the bronco!

Check out Emerlyn's face! G had just told her it was time to get down! Want to guess if she got down then?? Ha!

Addison with Josie

Addie reminds me all the time that we do have dogs, Jedi and Jose but they just live at Mimi and G's house!! My favorite kind of pets!!!
Vivian and Jedi (Notice Emmy's still riding!!)

In Wonderland - mix-match glass slippers are the best shoes to wear!



Later in the week we went bowling with our good friends, the Wantlands. We all had a great time and the kids did really good!
Addison and Gunnar

Gunnar was a rock star at bowling! He would send the ball down the first time and then use the ramp on the second try. The first time he set it up we were trying to help him because he had it crooked but he said he had it and sure enough he got a spare! After that, he helped all the other kids on their second times! We probably should have had him help the grown ups too!!

Sweet friends!
Vivian and Erica



Vivian would send the ball down the lane and then immediately turn around and walk back each time! She wasn't worried about how many she knocked down, she was just having fun!

It's hard to see the scores but I couldn't resist! I was last place the first game and managed to win the second! Talk about a come back!

(Also a funny note, if you could see it better, Gunnar beat both his parents on the second game!) Ha!

The rest of the time we stayed pretty close to the house and enjoyed some down time!

The girls played outside

These two are quite a pair! Look at those faces!

Hello blue eyes!

We watched movies
Addison got a giant, inflatable bowling set for her birthday but we hadn't opened it yet. We started with it outside but it was a little wet so we made a lane inside.

When we got tired of playing the traditional way we dressed them up like new friends!

Emerlyn got in on the dress up action too!

Vivian's friends (from left to right) Drelda, George Washington and Louisiana
Then the girls set up school and read to their class! Hours of entertainment!!

I love when we have time to just stop and enjoy the moments with these girls! Time is flying by and it's sometimes hard to remember to appreciate the little things when we get so busy.

Thank you God for the great reminder to slow down and appreciate the blessings you've given us!!!
