So, everyday I get on the computer and eagerly check out everyone's blogs and I am always disappointed when there is nothing new. Today, I realized there might be people out there checking mine and feeling the same way. Anyway, I just haven't felt like there has been much to blog about or there is so much going on I don't have time to blog. I guess I am more of a taker than a giver.
Here's a quick run down of our spring break, followed by pictures from spring break and Easter. Monday night Kirk's dad treated us to Horton Hears a Who!. I don't know which I enjoyed more watching Caleb watch the movie or watching the movie myself. This was Caleb's first time to go to a movie. Caleb sat on the edge of his seat through most of the movie and thought it was great to have his own drink and a twizzler in each hand. The girls enjoyed the movie and snacks, too. I loved the movie and was very impressed by how clen it was. Thanks Mike for giving us such a great family night.
Wednesday my mom called to say she was bringing my sister to a hospital in Dallas and could she stay the night with us. We took the kids to Chuck E Cheese and headed home to wait for my mom to arrive.
Thursday, I had a facial and massage (a Christmas gift from Peyton). The facial was heaven and the massage was the other place. I felt like someone beat me up for thirty minutes. Then I raced home, only to realize I had forgotten to let Linda's dogs out that morning. I forgot to mention we were dog sitting for a few days while they were in NY. Anyway, the dogs were really glad to see me and they left a few surprises for me to clean up. Then I raced home to be there when my friend dropped her kids off to play while she went to the doctor. Usually, it is a great arrangement and the kids play great together. Not this time, Kylie had a major meltdown and had to take a nap while her friend was here. Caleb was awakened from his nap after only 45 minutes. So, my friend came back and took my kids home with her so mom and I could drive to Dallas to visit my sister. Mom and I got back to Saginaw about 9:30 and headed to Walmart for breakfast food. Kirk's cousin Sharon and her family were staying the night with us because their son was at Cooks and they were tired of the motel. We ended up staying up until 12:00, talking.
Friday, Kirk was off for Good Friday so we hung out with his cousin for awhile. My mom left and headed for my brothers. Kirk and Karissa went to Six Flags and a Jeremy Camp concert. It was very crowded and Karissa didn't like any of the rides. She had fun just hanging out with Dad, thoughh. Friday night, our church had a Good Friday service. I worked in the nursery but Cara and Memaw got to attend a cool Last Supper. I forgot to mention Memaw arrived Friday afternoon. I am exhausted just writing all this down, how about you?After church we came home and learned that Sharon and her family were headed home. Their son had been released from Cooks and they were ready to sleep in their own beds.
Saturday, we took the kids to the Trinity river and on a mini train ride. Saturday night, Kirk had to practice and we had to do Easter things. We also had to play catch up because Cara lost a toothe Friday night and the tooth fairy didn't make it.
Sunday, it was COLD. All our spring deresses and sandels were pretty but not practical. I worked first service in the 2-5 yr old class and went to second service. After church, all Kirk's family came over for lunch and an egg hunt. We had left overs for dinner and I couldn't wait to get in bed. I can't belive I spent most of spring break waiting for school to start so we would have a routine. This summer I am going to have to create a routine or I think we might go crazy!!! So, if anyone is still reading this is what has been going on in the Wimberley household.
Today, Kylie and Cara had their teeth cleaned. Caleb was worried he was going to have to do it. He kept saying "mommy...not me." So the hygenist said "Caleb we are just going to look at your beautiful blue eyes today, not your teeth." So what does Caleb do..he squints his eyes shut and tries to keep them closed so she can't see them. I am not looking forward to his first check-up, although I think the new toorh brush will help!!
