UPDATE: SPRING BREAK & EASTER

Spring Break was a lot of fun! Me & the kids went with a friend and her family to Daytona. The kids did great on the way down and on the way back. They travel very well, especially since two of the them had to sit in car seats the entire time. Asher was constantly asking when we would get to the beach. He started in Indianapolis and didn't stop until we made it to Florida! When we got there we took him to the beach as soon as possible. Right after that we had to go to Wal-Mart and get some food, so we told the kids we'd have to go. Asher started crying and said, "But it took us too long to get here, I don't want to drive all the way back to go to Wal-Mart!" We started laughing and explained to him that there was a Wal-Mart there in Daytona. Poor kid thought that the only Wal-Mart was back here in Fort Wayne.
Every morning from our balcony we were able to the dolphins swimming, Saige really enjoyed that! He also had tons of fun body surfing. Wil had fun, but not being the water kid, he had more fun with the activities that the condo provided. Everyday they had something going on; bingo, pizza, ice cream social, pool party. He really enjoyed that. Asher tried to body surf and boogie board, it was so fun watching him try to conquer the waves. All the boys played in the sand and collected shells. I had a lot of fun just hanging out with my friend, Janice. She is so awesome! Her daughter, Bethany, and her friend, Bree, watched the kids one night so we could go out and have some 'alone' time. We dressed up and went to dinner, I really enjoyed that.
We all did miss daddy though. We talked to him everyday! He said that the first few days weren't bad but by the end of the week he was totally missing us. He said that he hated coming home to an empty house. When we got home the house was spotless, candles lit and there were homemade cookies on the table for the kids with some chocolates and a beautiful yellow Easter Lily for me. Bryan is so awesome. The kids bought him an alligator head. Doesn't seem quite as elegant but he liked it very much, it is kind of cool. I'll post some pics on Wigge pics.
Easter turned out great! The play went on without any problems and everybody did an excellent job. Everybody loved it! The message that I wanted to get out - came out! We went to my mom and dad's for Easter dinner. Bryan's mom joined us! There was food, Easter egg hunt, food, candy, food, candy......I'm sure that everybody was like that! The only thing that could of been better was the weather. It seemed more like Christmas than Easter. Today is a beautiful day though, I'm going to go out to enjoy it. Have a great week.

What a beautiful day....

Today is such a gorgeous day! I stood outside for awhile today and just soaked myself in the sun! Today I went with Saige's fourth grade class on a field trip to the History Museum and the Courthouse. We ate lunch in the Courtyard at the Courthouse, the weather was absolutely beautiful!! My group was very well behaved and we had a lot of fun. I am pretty tired though and this week is going to be so busy! Every day there is something scheduled and I have a lot of little things to get done too. Me and the kids are leaving Friday (when they get out of school) to go to Florida. Hooray! A friend of mine has a time share, and every year she takes her kids to a condo on the beach in Daytona. She only has a 16 year-old left in the house and she is taking a friend. The other family that was suppose to go could not. She called me a few weeks ago and asked it the kids and I would like to go, the condo, hotel, and rental van are already paid for, so she asked that I help out with gas and food! Oh yeah!! I am so lucky to have a friend like that! She is soooo awesome! Bryan has to work so it's just me and the kids. It'll be fun and probably a little frustrating! The kids will be watched one night by the teenage girls so the 'moms' can go out! I have so much to get done before Friday......and when we get back, within two days is Easter and the 'Easter Play'. Plus I have to take midterm on my Medical Terminology. So I will be studying that and my script on the beach!! I'll update again after Easter and Spring Break! Enjoy the weather we're having and have a great Spring Break!!!
