The swingset is a busy place.....

take note in the video how Shawn claps for himself, as he makes it down the slide!!!!

Besides baking, we always try to find something fun and different to do while Kate and Shawn are napping.

These are called Do-a-Dot Art markers from Amy, along with a cool monster truck book to use them in.


I picked up these pre-school workbooks that Tyler enjoys doing, too.










Tyler and I making some chocolate oatmeal cookies.

1st we needed to borrow an ingredient from my mini-grocery, Heather. Which also comes with delivery from our wonderful helpers......the cookies didn't look that great but they tasted pretty good.





The kids love to pile up in our bed......

No, there's nothing wrong with your computer.......

The kids are really playing in the water. The weather has been beautiful and today was very warm. I started the day by taking the kids to Rylee's soccer game. Which was a lot of fun for all the little kids, who had their own soccer game going on on the sidelines. Until.........I hear someone saying "no, no you can't do that here". I turned around to see Tyler with his pants down, attempting to go pee pee! Needless to say, we pulled his pants up and went to find the bathroom. On the way I explained that it is o.k. to go at our house and Nana's house but anywhere else he has to tell us to take him. I guess that makes us a bunch of rednecks now!!!!! And I am CERTAIN that Heather and Melissa are having a secret meeting with the Bunko Babes, trying to figure out how to replace me!!! Oh well, kids will be kids........Then in the afternoon, I decided to let them play in the water. I think Shawn was the most entertained by the water.

Bath time...

Shawn "helping" by pouring water on Kate's hair. She didn't mind at all and thought it was funny.





Kate's 1st pedicure (if you wanna call it that)!!!

Sharing puppy.....

Well, here's Shawn's BFF, puppy!!! His favorite thing is finding the ear and shoving it in his mouth. He tried offering Tyler the tail....very cute.

Our vacation to Disney......

Only 10 more hours to go and Tyler is already catching flies!!



We made it!!!!!





1st stop, Animal Kingdom's safari....we made a new
friend.



























The little kids (and big kid) spending some time in the parks
playground.









































Me and the birthday girl, Alyssa.


















































Last park, 10:30 p.m. the kids are exhausted...

























This was our last day, so we decided to just relax....
Tyler is not a fan of the pool at all but as you can see after
watching his little mermaid friends, he must of thought
"this can't be that bad after all".




















































Coloring easter eggs







































What a way to end the trip....hibatchi dinner and drinks.
