Nana and Breigh Breigh Visit

We had so much fun with Nana and Breigh! Even though it rained a few days we still spent some time at the beach and the pool! We also did some shopping. The boys all fell in love eith Breigh and fought for her attention. She was so much help and such a sweetie. Here are some pictures from their trip.

Pappy Visits!

Pappy came to visit us and we are all so happy! I didn't let the boys know he was coming so we pulled up to the airport and saw Pappy walking down the street. The boys were "shy" but so very excited! They haven't left his side and Tytan won't take his eyes off of him. Everywhere he goes someone is following him and "helping" him. Pappy has helped me so much, fixed some light switches that had shorted, cleaned my car, cleaned the garage, cleaned my back porch...most importantly he got the big window running and has taken the boys on several rides! We have been swimming, down to the beach, and eaten a lot of Pappy chips and Oreos. Pappy also taught Athen how to start and stop on his big boy bike. He has been able to ride his bike for several months, but could only go if one of us got him started, but now he can go all over the place. Here are some pictures of Pappy and the boys beachin' it and swimming at the pool!
We also spent some time playing "ball" outside!
We have one more day with Pappy and we are all so excited to hang with him!

Last Day of School and Auntie Kim Visits

My sweet Athen finished his last day of preschool for this year. The way his birthday falls he will get to go to preschool again next year! He will have the same wonderful teacher and a few of his same friends will be in his class again. In Florida they do a program called VPK, which is paid for by the state! So next year we will have no tuition for Athen, but little Maxi will be starting two days a week so he is picking up some of the slack :) On his last day they sang a few songs and had an ice cream party! Here is my little guy singing away!
After school I packed up all the boys and we went to the airport and picked up Auntie Kim! The boys were so excited to have her visit. We went to the beach, the pool, and even got a sitter one night and went out for sushi! One night we all went to Five Guys and here are some pictures of the boys playing by the fountain!
We sure had a great time with Kim and we miss her already! We are looking forward to seeing her when we visit Ohio this summer.

Mother's Day Tea Party Fun

Athen's preschool had a Mother's Day Tea Party. I got a sitter for the two wee ones, so I could go to the tea party with just Athen. He told me that he needed to wear a "handsome" shirt and I needed to wear a dress. So, we found a handsome shirt and I made him a handsome bowtie and we bought him a cutie hat. That morning he was so excited and even asked me if I was going to wear my hair in a pony tail, so I decided to do my hair. We left the house looking like this.
I showed up to school and he looked like this: sweaty, a crooked neck tie, and no hat.
They sang a few songs, but this was I'm a little teapot short and stout.
This is us just being silly!
This is Athen's sweet and wonderful teacher, Ms. Lynne
And these three amigos are besties!
I loved spending time with my sweet boy! He woke up Mother's Day morning and the first words out of his mouth were, "Happy Mother's Day!" We sure missed Matt, but my bestie here invited me over for dinner and her hubby cooked us dinner! It was so very nice and I am so thankful that she would share her Mother's Day with me.

Preschool Picnic

Last week Athen had a picnic at school and we all got to go! It was so much fun and they had so many fun things to do. Tytan absolutely loved the water table they had. He played and played in it and got completely soaked. I had to change his entire outfit, even his shoes.
Maximo and Athen loved all the animals. They were both so brave and rode the ponies that were there. Maximo had his game face on the entire time. It is so funny to me because he made a face like he was riding this pony at full speed. It was so cute!
And sweet Ty just wanted a turn...
Athen and Maximo got tatoos and ate popsicles...
The weather was perfect and we all had so much fun!

The Zoo with Nana

While Nana visited we made a special trip to the zoo! The boys were so excited. We even let Athen miss school that morning to go with us! It was even more exciting because all of the giraffes were out and Nana and Athen got to feed them. Here are some super cool pictures of that!
Then we went to the petting part of the zoo and this little guy loved Nana!
We loved spending the morning with Nana at the zoo! Here she is with two of the three amigos!
We sure do miss her and loved having her here! The boys love having visitors so if you're looking for some warmer/hot weather we would love to have you!!!
