Field Trip Friday {The Linq}

By -
Last Friday, we went with our Field Trip Friday group on a field trip to The Linq. The girls were excited to ride the High Roller, and none of the kids were scared at all when we got to the top. (They may have been too distracted with all of their snacks.)





Jen found the cutest craft and brought it on the ride with us in case the kids got bored. It was perfect for them to do while we rode back down to the bottom, and it didn't even make a mess. Genius.






They turned out super cute, too!


After our ride on the High Roller, we walked through the Linq to the Flamingo. We were loving all of the big flowers they put up for spring.



We headed inside and went straight for the flamingos. All of the kids loved watching them, and they all had us laughing as they acted silly.







Perr and Acelyn had to get another baby BFF picture. They're going to have the best album of pictures when they grow up. I hope they really end up being BFFs!


Perry also had to smother Amelia with love. These two always have fun when they get together. Amelia loves Perry and always tries to take care of her, and it's the cutest! Also, Grace wanted a picture with this pretty wall of leaves. She's so my kid.


Our next stop was dinner at In N Out where the kids chowed down on cheeseburgers and shakes.


They were all adorable in their little hats, too.




We had so much fun with everyone. We don't always get to make the field trips, since I'm usually at work and Grace and Char are at school, but I love when they work out with our schedule. These mamas and their kiddos are always a good time! Thanks for setting this one up, Jen. You da best!

(Let me know if you want in, and I'll add you to our Facebook group!)

...Char was sleeping so peacefully Monday morning that I didn't want to wake her up. ...she made me a pretty picture at school with chalk. ...she continued her obsession with the easel and colored (and watched Toy Story ) while waiting for Daddy to get home from work. Hooray for panties! ...it got cold and windy again, but we played outside anyways. Isaac played catch with the neighbor boys, while JJ flew the kite and Char strutted her stuff. ...the girls danced around the living room. There is an iTunes Radio station called 'Frozen Radio' that the girls are crazy about. They play random Disney songs, and we listen to it all.the.time. (After watching this a few times, I realized that Char was trying to sing "friend in" as in "You've Got a Friend In Me".) ...Grace put Charley to bed by tickling her face. ...the girls got cake pops. Yep, for breakfast. ...we got to school a few minute

Mommy-Daughter Night

Thursday night, Isaac went to play poker with some of Sunstate's biggest customers (and soon to be customers). Since he left around 4:30 and didn't come home until well after Grace and I were asleep, we got to have a whole mommy-daughter night! I get to spend every night with her, but having quality time with just the two of us is pretty rare. This means that nights alone with mom get to be extra special treats for both of us! When Daddy left, Grace asked "ah da da?" about one hundred times. Once she got over the fact that he was gone, we had a lot of fun. We started the night out watching Wall-E and building castles out of Mega Blocks. Then, Grace helped me unload the dishwasher while our dinner finished cooking: She's the best helper ever! We had pasta, corn, garlic bread, and cut up Beddar Cheddar brats for dinner; some of Grace's favorite things: After that it was bath time.  Once she got all clean, we played with her Dora foam soap. Grace really

Junior Ranger Day

Saturday was Junior Ranger Day at the Water Safety Center at Lake Mead.   Isaac's brother, Zacarias, was working and invited us to come down and check it out.   We're always up for anything that the girls might have fun at, so we got ready and headed down to the lake. It was right next to where my parents dock their boat, so it was pretty easy to find.   When we first got there, Grace was a little shy and skeptical about everything. It took her a while to warm up.   We found Uncle Zac by the fire truck and Grace hesitantly climbed inside with him:     She was a little afraid until I took her to the front of the trucks and showed her the lights. Then she thought it was "sooo cool!"       Charley was pretty curious and kept wanting to check everything out:       Grace saw Uncle's helmet and thought that was pretty neat. Then Daddy checked it out, too:       Since Charley was so curious, Daddy gave her a b
