May 8th - A Fun Day with Kiddos!

A beautiful day today - sunny and warm!  And what made it even better was that I met the kids for lunch at Chili's, then they all came over here.  Brooks was ready for a nap, so he went right down.  Lisa took off to run a few errands that she needed to get done.  Ashby and I invited Ethan to come over to play, so when he and his mother got back home from an errand they had to do, he came over and they played in the back yard.  They had a good time.

There is a big card cardboard box in the backyard, which is a perfect boat.  So, they spent their time mostly between the playhouse and the boat.  Love their imaginations!  Isn't it fun how a cardboard box can be one of the greatest toys ever!

Lisa had to give a voice lesson at 4:30, so I told her to just come back after that.  That way, Brooks got to play a while once he woke up.  He and Ashby got the nerf swords out and had quite a battle going on.  Then he wanted the art table, so he could color.  He ended up with the Barbie corvette - he kept saying it was a "big" car!

I got a few other things done - not everything I had planned, but things were straightened, 3 loads of laundry done, and most of the rest of the "have to's."  I spent a little time on family history during the evening.

Busy day - it is always busy keeping up with energetic little ones!
