A lot of weeks there are just not a ton of things to talk about. It's a lot of busy mornings, school, appointments, meetings, piano lessons, soccer practice, dinner, reading, bath times. But that's the good stuff even if it's not exciting.
I hate to say it out loud but I think spring may have arrived in Arkansas. It's been in the 60's the last week. There is rain and wind but it's starting to get warm and trees are starting to bud.
Will Holden and I have gone to parks and Sam's - where he talked me into eating lunch before 11 because he was so hungry.
Friday was our last day before spring break and the day before Hollis' birthday and so I picked her up at lunch time and took her to lunch. Her favorite spot is Waffle House. We both love it. She wore her birthday crown to school. She was SO PROUD to have a birthday!
The girl can put away some food. :-)
She had a few gift cards so we went to the cutest toy store and to a few other places before picking up the others from school.
Her best friend moved to Texas in August and they miss each other so much. They face timed on Friday and Saturday. Hollis just LIGHTS UP when Kampbell calls her. It's the sweetest thing (and the the saddest because they are 10 hours apart).
After school Friday we stopped by a park for a while because it was so nice outside!
We are so happy for a break! We aren't spring break trip people but we have a few fun things planned!
Saturday was Hollis' actual birthday. Will Holden woke me up saying "I don't feel so good" and then ended up throwing up. So we just knew he had a stomach bug. I took Hollis to soccer practice and Scott stayed home. We had already bought movie tickets for the afternoon so Scott was going to take the girls. But then thing about WH is he throws up often and randomly. I always get nervous he has a stomach bug but it's always just a one time fluke. So since he was fine the rest of the day we went on to a movie.
We saw Wonder Park and it was so cute!
We ate dinner at Outback. We had kept WH on saltines and applesauce all day and tried to get him to just eat a little at dinner but he was starving and eating everything in sight.
I think after a week of celebrating that this girl had a pretty great birthday!
I made sure no one could pinch any of our kids at church yesterday!
But I guess Scott missed the memo that it was St Patricks Day. He came out on our way to church dressed like the 4th of July. ha! We went to church and lunch and then to Barnes & Noble so Harper could use a gift card on spring break books to read.
It was SO gorgeous outside yesterday. 60 and not windy and the sky was so blue. We went on a 3 mile walk and had the best time.
I love family walks so much!
We tell the kids they are in Disney Training. WH tries to say he won't need a stroller at Disney but these walks show us he does! ha!
We are ready for a week to sleep in and rest up and have some fun!
