Spring Break Fun!

Ok, being the teacher that I am, I LOVE Spring Break!  Even though I am now a sahm, that hasn't changed!  I love that the weather is getting warmer, I love having my kids home (most of the time), and I love not having to be somewhere at a certain time.  I do have a little confession to make though.  You know how this year, the time change also occurred the day before spring break started?  Well, I conveniently "forgot" to change the clock in my boys' room.  I kept wondering if or when they would notice, while I was enjoying my extra hour of sleep each morning! Finally, on Thursday evening, Caleb said "hey our clock is wrong".  I just said, "oh I must have forgotten to change it", (silently laughing).  I admit I felt a little guilty, but I let them stay up later each night to make up for it.  So no harm done. 
This year, we didn't have any big trips planned or anything, but we did manage to do a few fun and special things.  On Friday, we were lucky enough to score Thunder tickets.  My boys love going to Thunder games, and it doesn't hurt when you get to sit in the primo seats.  We had a blast and the Thunder won!  We ended the night with yummy cupcakes from Pinketzel.  On Monday and Tuesday, the boys and I were perfectly happy staying in our pj's half of the day (ok all day) and just hanging out at home.  It was NICE!!!  Wednesday, Jason and I celebrated our 9 year anniversary and my parents were nice enough to let Caleb and Camden spend the night, Yay!!!  Then on Friday, Jason took the day off work and we spent the day at Orr Family Farm.  We had a great time, and it wasn't too crowed!  Jason and I even got to try out their new zip line (courtesy of the free tickets I won).  It was really fun, although not nearly as great as the zip lines we did in Costa Rica on our honeymoon.
All in all, it was a great spring break, but I am ready to get back in our routine tomorrow.

Snow Day #3--Yippee!!!

Today was day #3 of life being put on hold for this ridiculous weather.  By now, I am more than a little bit tired of being stuck in my house with my children.  Don't get me wrong, I love my children more than anything else in this world, but even I need a break from them every once in a while.
Well we finally did venture out of the house today for a quick outing.  I took the boys to eat at our new McDonald's, which is luckily only a few blocks away from our house.  Then we drove through Sonic to get Mommy a drink and finally into CVS for a couple of things we needed.  I know it sounds silly, but it was just really nice to get out of the house and go somewhere different.  We already got the call that school is out again tomorrow.  I guess I had better think of some fun things to do with my sweet boys so they don't kill each other.  I'm just kidding of course, but they are getting a little tired of each other's company and could really use some quality time away from one another.  Here's hoping that tomorrow is our last snow day for a long, long time.  Wish me luck!

Here I Go....

Ok, so one of my New Year's resolutions this year was to start my own blog about my sweet little family and our crazy lives.  I know that I am a little late, but better late than never!  So Here I Go........

Well, we have had a major snowstorm in our state and we have all been stuck at home All Day Long.  I decided that today would be a great day to start my blog.  Luckily my husband didn't have to go in to work today and the boys were out of school.  We have had a great day together playing wii, making crafts, playing in the snow and eating yummy comfort food.  It is really cold, but daddy and the boys braved the snow for a few minutes (long enough for me to get some cute pics).  We have had a great day, but I'm afraid if we are stuck at home for very many days like this we might go crazy!  And when I say "we", I mean "me".  Well hopefully I can figure out how to post the pics and I will be on my way to fulfilling one of my resolutions.
