Cole turns 3

Cole's 3rd birthday fell on a Saturday.  He got to open presents from us as soon as everyone was up.

He is totally addicted to Paw Patrol so that was of course what his party had to be.

He would have blown them out as many times as he could get someone to relight them.

We had his family party that afternoon/evening.

He thinks it is the funniest thing to look at this picture.

Mom, Maria and I met Kate & her family and Martina and her kids at the walk.  We had a great time remembering and catching up.

Spring Break 2015

The kids had Friday off and they stayed with Grandma and Grandpa.  Saturday we had a quiet day at home and my parents come over in the afternoon/evening.

On Saturday we headed to Silver Dollar City for the spring ride days.  It was a little chilly at first but turned into a beautiful day.

In the afternoon we split up so Callie and Shannon could ride roller coasters and I took the boys.  We started out at the new fireman's landing and then to grand exposition.

Cole was not a fan of getting off when it was not his turn.  He loved the doggies.  And then later on the lost mine boat ride where you shoot guns - he wanted to ride it over and over and would talk about it always.

They enjoyed the new ball area.

We spent the night at a hotel with an indoor pool so the kids swam after we got checked in.  The next morning after a Shoney's breakfast we headed to Springfield to the zoo and then bass pro.  We had some tired kids by the time we got home that evening.  But a great trip!

Tues & Wed we played at home and got out the Easter decorations.  Callie and I went to see the new Cindarella movie. Thursday Mom and I went shopping in Joplin.  Then she took Callie and Chase home with her to have a sleep over with Rylan and Dylan.  We went up Friday afternoon to spend the evening and bring them home.
Saturday we went to lakeside to feed the ducks and play.
Sunday was Church and then to John and Linda's house in the evening.
