Swimming at Five Points March 19, 2012

Mommy Monday......we went to play at Five Points today. It was raining this morning when we went in to swim and then beautiful and sunny on our way out. It was a fun morning and then I spent the entire afternoon spring cleaning. I put all my summer clothes out, put all my winter clothes away, cleaned out the kids closets/rooms and then took 6 huge garbage bags of clothes/toys to goodwill nice. It made me feel good because Tristan helped decide which toys we should "give" to some kids who need toys. Awww!! I still managed to get lunch, naps, dinner, baths and a nice evening walk in with Champ and Makenna. What a day!

Spring weather is here early and it is beautiful!!!

 Cool baby in her shades and holding her new LOVE....a "bean bag type" frog.  She also has an elephant and an alligator that she keeps with her almost always.

 Just taking a break from bouncing for a snack. Apples and water make anyones day better.

 Brought out the bounce house for the kids to play while daddy and I put the trampoline back up.

 Going on a walk and Tristan did all the work for me. It was so nice and I loved watching them.

 Just taking a break for a sip of water.

 Just a pic of our pretty tree in full bloom on sunday. LOVE IT, even though it is messy.

 Hanging out with the neighbors after our anniversary evening out. They just told us the great news that they will be getting married soon. YAY!! We love having them as our neighbors.

Makenna's crazy hair  from static on the trampoline.

As happens often I bunch a lot of posts on the same day because I have a few minutes to myself to sit at the computer. Here are some pics from the past few weeks with our beautiful weather we have been having. Hope you enjoy them.

St. Patty's Day and 11 year Anniversary Celebration....YAY!!

  Out with the Kloster's on St. Patty's Day to  celebrate our 11 year Anniversary!! I had a blast and loved to get to spend time with Patrick on our own.

 The Happy couple.

 Tony hugging our beer tower because we made him.

 The first ever St. Patty's Day parade for myself and the children. Not a huge fan, but it was fun for the short period of time that we were there.

 Makenna playing in the tree planter to waste time before the parade starts.

waiting for the parade to start.

Family Fun March 2012: Playing outside

 Hanging out in the police car.....driving sis around.

 Just giving sis a push....LOVE THIS and SO SWEET!!

 Here is Makenna swinging.....she LOVES swinging. This day was just a little cooler.

 Tristan showing Makenna around the yard because they were playing make believe something or other. I just could not pass up this pic. Probably my all time favorite right now!! LOVE!!

 Just hugging on sis!!

 My handsome Tristan.

 Makenna talking to me. So beautiful.

Tristan riding his skateboard with his new helmet. Good thing as he crashed into the truck tire. JEEZ!!

The weather has been warming up which we love and we spend as much time outside as possible. We put up the trampoline today and the weather was gorgeous (70's). We even brought out the bounce house for the kids to play in while we put together a new grill and trampoline. Fantastic weekend, even with the spring forward which I HATE!!

Fun at the Kloster's March 2012

 Such a sweetie Hudson!!

 LOVE HUDSON'S FACE in this pic. He was showing me his hands were washed.

 Doesn't Makenna look so big in this pic.

 Pretty girl playing on the phone in the house and the best is you can see her pretty painted nails. She requested this be done and then had me touch them up because they were chipped....REALLY!! I may have a girly, girly....OH NO!!

 Makenna looks so old in this pic. :-(

 Tristan trying to fit in the little boy car.....so cute!

 All the boys!

I was trying to catch a good pic of Makenna's ponytail....the beautiful curl it had today. So sweet!

We played at the Kloster's today and as always we had a blast. I just love watching the kids play. It was beautiful outside and we enjoyed every second all day.
