Spring Break 2013

On Friday I had Drew and Ethan back since our flight from PSP to DEN was about 6 hours late and we would have missed our Denver to Kas flight so they got to spend an extra night with us!  I took all 5 boys downtown for some ice cream, I don't know if you can tell but Drew had chocolate....


Saturday we we ended up trying to get to KC again.  Our plane left 3 hours late due to a snow storm in Denver (that was headed to KC, lucky us) and by the time we got to Denver and spent 3 hours in the airport, our flight was cancelled.  Ty was AWESOME with his cousins, keeping them happy, entertained, in line....I really don't know what I would have done without him.  We spent the night in Denver and due to the storm headed East ended up renting a car Sunday morning and driving 6 hours to meet Jono, my brother in law in Hays, KS and then heading the next 5 hours together to their house.  It was a very long travel to only spend 36 hours with my sis and her fam, but worth it in the end.  

Ty was enamored by the snow, shoveled at the hotel, as soon as we reached my sister's and played outside in it for hours.  So cute.




Monday we took the boys to Chuck E Cheese for Ethan's 6th birthday. 

Ty loved holding baby Wes.

But it was Sydney that stole the show.  She and her big belly laugh just loved Ty.  


Monday afternoon we went sledding at Jono's parents house, I even went down a few time, I forgot how fun and cold it can be!

My break inside to snuggle this guy!




A short 36 hours after we arrived Ty and I jetted off to Vegas.  It was so much fun hanging out with him, we did everything he wanted, shopping, pizza, playing games....it was a fun filled day!




We ended the night with a game of lasers at Excalibur.  What a fun few days with my oldest.  We drove home today and are looking forward to spending the rest of break with family and baseball.  I am one lucky girl.
Happy Easter!

Friends & Family

On Saturday Ty had two friends, Dimitri and Caibel, sleep over and some neighborhood kids came over so it was funfest at our house with all the boys. 

They went from pool to jacuzzi to basketball to boxing to video games.  Busy boys!!


Sunday morning we hit up the batting cages for some practice.

Sunday afternoon Tash, Julie and I took all the kids downtown for some St Patrick's green drinks.


Tuesday my parents brought Ethan and Drew back from Kansas City with them and they got to have a sleepover at our house.  We colored eggs, went swimming and just played.  The boys loved their cousins!!!




This was my Wednesday morning, 5 cuties snuggling on the couch waiting for breakfast.  Ty and I can't wait to take Ethan and Drew back to KC tomorrow and see Sydney and Wes.

Our week

So kind of a big deal, this little guy.  My sister Melissa and her husband Jonathan welcomed baby #4 last Monday.  A very healthy Wesley August Benjamin.  I can't wait to meet him in 3 weeks!

Baseball has officially started and this kid is starting out like a big shot.  Game #1, pitched first 2 innings striking out 6 out of 7 and then went 3 for 3 batting with an in the park home run.  Really got him excited for spring ball!

Saturday I went wine tasting with a lovely group in Temecula.  We are all great friends and I had so much fun.  Just missed my hubby, he's still not feeling too well...
