A spring break bust!!

First, my apologies go out to Samantha who spent her very first spring break hanging out with her mom and the babes for the entire week and we've got nothing to show for it... well, maybe not 'nothing'.

The upside is that this was her very first spring break so I haven't set the bar too high as far as her expectations go - so I've got some time to make it up to her.

The downside is that her only real memory of spring break will be our daily, and I do mean daily, trips to Sonic for half price drinks & slushies!


This is exactly how I survived the week... knowing there was a large Coke for .75 just waiting for me at 2pm!



And this is how the kids survived... Every time we pulled into the drive through Brody would say 'mama, I want my own'... I kinda sometimes have been known to make them all 3 share one... but never during 1/2 price drink happy hour!



And what spring break would be complete without one - yes ONE - trip to the park that lasted 25 minutes! I know, I know, I'm not the best mom, but it was hot outside and there were some weird kids at the park.

What we've been doing on our Friday nights...

We somehow got roped into a softball team over the summer with almost Scott's entire family as our team (minus a few who were smart to steer clear of the sign up sheet). We actually had a great time playing together and it was fun to do something different; boy were we a bunch of mis-fit toys in wonderland. We had one injury after the other which only reminds us all that we should leave the organized team sports to the next generation - we don't heal as quickly as we used to. Never the less, we did pretty good and were able to stick it out and make it through to the 2nd round of tournament games but then lost miserably and went down in a ball of flames to the tune of 24-4... YIKES! Unfortunately Scott had to work the night we took this photo at our last game... he was there in spirit! Our team captain - or the guy who *made* us do this - is Steve and he is the one kneeling with the goofy "thumbs-up smile" (and yeah, that's me next to the goof ball!) and he is ou...

Tough Mudder

Here are some videos of the  Tough Mudder challenge that Scott took part in (January 2012). So incredibly proud of these guys... I present to you... the Dirty Dads! And here is a FUNNY video I took of the final obstacle...not of the boys, but still so hilarious to watch!

Random photos...

Whenever I have a photo shoot planned at my house in my little “studio” I always beg and plead with the kiddos to sit for just a second so that I can get the lights and set up just right before the actual shoot. Well, in doing that, I always end up with the most random of photos... ENJOY! [taken December 2011]
