Good Friday

Disclaimer: This post will have a TON of pictures......

I am always off work on Good Friday but this year Trey was off too!! It was such an amazing, fun day!! Trey cooked us all breakfast, then we got ready and headed out the door. First stop was visiting Ningee at work because I needed to get a baking pan from her. After that we headed to the park to play and feed the ducks!!

He said "I did it" after each step he climbed! :)

You guessed it, he took a bite of every piece of bread before he gave it to the ducks. Good thing it was fresh bread!

He had no interest in feeding the ducks, but he was still having fun!

After the park we headed to Red Lobster for lunch. It was so yummy and the boys thought they were big stuff with their own drinks and food. After lunch we went to the Conservation Center.

After the Conservation Center we were all pretty tired. We headed home and Colton took a nap while the rest of us had quite time and watched TV. When Colton got up we decided it was time to dye some Easter eggs.

He was really EXCITED! He had been asking to dye egg all day long!

Sweet brother moment.

When did he get so big??

We had leftovers for dinner and relaxed the rest of the evening. What a wonderful family day we had!! Thank you Lord Jesus for dying so we can live!!

Typical Evening with the Boys

The other day the boys were cracking me up so I wanted to document the age they are right now. This is a very typical evening.

Disney Junior on and toys out

Mad because something isn't working right

Has something in his mouth

Yep that is chair on the ottoman lid

I can tell you my house would be a lot cleaner without this two monsters but that wouldn't be any fun!! Love these little guys and girl!! Wouldn't trade my life with anyone!

Messy Morning

Every year businesses around the area set up a station for kids to play and get "messy" at the Show Me Center. Thousands of people go to this (I think they said over 3000 people came this year). We went 2 years ago and Frankie seemed to have fun, we skipped last year so I was really excited to take the boys this year. We picked up Ningee and headed to messy morning around 10:30am there was a huge line, so we went to El Sol to eat lunch and waited for the crowd to die down. We had lunch and headed back, I don't think Colton was feeling the best but thought we would try it for a little bit. We got there around 11:45 and there were still tons of people there. We walked around a little but the boys had no interest in touching or playing with anything. I honestly think there were to many people there for them and they didn't want to get messy. They did enjoy dancing to the music and loved the fire truck outside. We spent more time with the fire truck than we did inside.

A little LeapPad2/iPhone time before we left

Looking at the big turtle, don't worry they refused to touch it.

Dancing....

Busting a major move!

Firetruck....

He thought he was big stuff on the back of that firetruck.

This guy loves his papi & baby so much!

The firetruck definitely saved the day! I don't think we will be going back next year, there are way to many people for me.

Last year in my 20's

Last week I turned 29! Getting older hasn't really been a big deal to me, it's just an age right? Trey and I went to St. Louis to have dinner with friends and went shopping the weekend before so that really kicked off my birthday week! :)

Wednesday: (Bummer forgot my camera)

The day before my birthday we ate at Shogun's for my birthday celebration with the Boyer's. It was so yummy!! Shogun's never disappoints. Frankie has been several times so he is well prepared for the "show" and plans ahead by sitting on someone's lap. This was Colton's first time and he wasn't crazy about it, but did better than Frankie did on his first time. Colton cried when the big flames happened and then he was just mad. Evey time he would make a clang on the grill or make fire Colton would look at him and yell NO! It was a good time and of course the boys loved watching the fish.

Thursday:

On my birthday I had to work a seminar for work. It was fine I guess because I got paid overtime and had a steak from Celebrations! Score! The evening ended a little stressful because the tornado sirens were going off when I was trying to drive home and then is stormed all night long. At least I slept through most of it. :)

Friday:

My parents and Annie & Dave joined us at Logan's. It was super yummy. Then we went back to my parents house for presents and cake and ice cream.
