It’s A Beautiful Life….

Here’s a glimpse into the past week of our lives.
Last Tuesday, there was an Eagle Tribune reporter at the library, and she took some pics of the kids.
It got published on the April 12th edition:

Thursday morning, my little polliwog had a great swim class. He practiced his breaststroke, backstroke and tried swimming with 2 bubbles instead of 3.

Friday, we had co-op. It was my turn to host and I decided to do a Recycled Games theme. Here are a few pics.

The bowling game was a hit. So was a big empty box I brought in.

My camera died shortly after this pic. What’s new?
Saturday, we had a meetup to see “Seussical the Musical” at the Northshore Theater. We were totally unprepared for the the traffic and got there after the show started, but the kids had a great time and the show was really awesome.

Singing, “Rolling in the Deep”….
Sunday was the beginning of spring season of soccer.
Hayzel and Jayden reunited with their team, the Leopards. This season started 100% better than the last one did. We had a great time and the weather was beautiful!

Monday was another gorgeous and HOT day, so I got the brilliant beyond brilliant idea to go to the beach.
On of the first hot days of the season.
During spring vacation week.
Not mention it was Patriots Day.
I didn’t think this one through and what should only be a 35 minute ride turned into a 2 1/2 hour ride. In general the kids behaved……liked kids.
Stuck in a car.
On a hot day.
For 2 1/2 hours.

The temperature at the beach was cold! So after about 45 minutes, we left. It only took us 75 minutes to get home, so that was a big plus!
The kids all had a great time, so to me it was all worth the hassle. Must remember this post if I get the same idea for next year though.
Tuesday was another sunny day. We just hung out in the yard and played with bubbles, chalk, and a boomerang.

April 9th we celebrated the first year anniversary of C and J’s move from NY to NH. Since that day,these 3 stooges have been inseparable. I’m really grateful that their parents made the decision to come live near us. My dream of having them grow up together has been realized. Hayzel is a very lucky little boy to have such a great big brother in Jayden and sweet and pesky little sister in Caitlin.  DSCN2036
