My weekly update! Saturday was a really really busy day!! My younger daughter had a field trip to one of the local police departments and it was a lot of fun for the girls. Both of the Daisy groups went so there were 11 5-6 yr old there. They got a tour of the police department and got to see the dispatch area and got to meet one of the K-9s that they have. The lady officer even had her Sergeant put the "arm" on so that they could see the dog in action. It was neat for the girls to learn all the different things that go on and they all had a ton of questions. Us mommies even learned a thing or 2. That police department has 4 K-9s, one of them is a bomb dog and the other 3 are for drugs.
After our field trip to the police department we met up with the rest of the family and got the kids hair cut, my older daughter decided that she wanted to get highlights so we did that and I got 6 inches cut off my hair. My older daughter also had softball practice so we did that and then our younger daughter had a birthday party to go to so we did that. It was a bowling party and she was oh so unhappy about the shoes and refused to bowl til her daddy put the shoes on and she finally played and ended up having a great time. Then to top it all off we ran home grabbed clothes for the kids and headed out to take pictures of the kiddos. We got about 200 great pictures of the kids. Individual pics of the kids and then group pics. All in all it made for a very long day!!!
Sunday we took the kids to my parents and they watched them so that hubby and I could take my brother out and about to do his pictures. He asked hubby to do his Senior pictures instead of paying someplace a buttload of $$ to do it. So we went to several different parks and to the Arch to get some shots. Hubby took almost 200 pictures of him out and about and most of them turned out awesome. Hubby also did about 200 indoor pics so he will have a few to choose from! That was an all day event and was a lot of fun.
Monday was our daughters first softball game and they WON!!!! It was a beautiful night for a game and she had a great time! Then after every game the girls get to have slurpees, which I think was more exciting to the girls than winning the game!! They need some work on their outfielding but they did a great job and we were proud of all the girls.
Tuesday we did some running around. Wednesday our oldest had baseball practice and they all got their uniforms!!! They are the Blue Devils! :o) It got really cold yesterday and practice was even colder! They have their first game tonight at 8:15, which is pretty late, luckily the kids do not have school tomorrow! But it is going to be a frigid night so I am not sure how long I am going to stay since all the kids are going.
Friday is going to be a busy day too, the kids are on Spring break so we will probably go to the library and who knows where else. Saturday we have softball practice and then going to my parents for dinner and a birthday party for my grandma. Sunday is Easter and we are going to my aunt's to celebrate together. That is about the extent of my existence! Kids, kids and more kids! I have been working with my dad, but we have been really busy so time seems to fly.
I hope that everyone has a great Easter! :o)
