On Saturday we went to an event called "Tons O' Trucks." There is virtually every kind of truck imaginable there. The kids are allowed to go in all of the trucks and honk the horns, etc. We thought the twins would have been a little more excited since going down the highway they like to say "big truck" and point to all of the trucks big and small. Meredith did get into the excitement towards the end.
We may have a beautician on our hands. We always knew that Meredith liked playing with hair, but this is what Mike found when he walked into the living room this week. Megan finished up with swim classes this week. I think we will sign her up for one more session and then hopefully the weather will be warm enough for her to put what she learned to the test in the pool and lakes. On Thursday, Megan traveled to the UP with Uncle Bobby. She got spend some time with her granparents and uncles. Hopefully she didn't talk Uncle Bobby's ear off on the trip!
On Saturday, we did our annual Memorial Day Weekend planting. We got all of the flowers and vegetables planted. The twins actually helped out a lot. Now we just have to wait for everything to grow! Memorial we went to the parade. I forgot to bring the camera (I know, hard to imagine!) I took some pictures after we got home. After a picnic lunch, the girls took an early nap and then we were off to try out a new park. The park is close to my school and is BEAUTIFUL! There is a big play structure, a small garden, and a water fountain feature. The girls enjoyed it a lot, it turned out to be a beautiful day!
Megan began swimming lesson last week. She enjoys them a lot and can not wait to go each day! Maybe we have a future "Killer Whale"????? Last Thursday was Megan's last day of preschool. Here is a picture of her with her teacher, Ms. Mary. Mike and the girls gave me three days of presents! Guess I must have been a good mom this year! :) On Firday, they made me brownies and also had a fresh boquet of tulips on the table. On Saturday, they gave me a "hand towel" with their handprints on it (sounds like it was quite the process to make it - Mike is getting some craftiness in him!). Sunday, I got a pair of crocs. I am very thankful for being blessed with three wonderful girls. It is such a joy to watch them grow each day. Can't wait for the summer to spend all day, every day with them! (I am also very thnakful to have a VERY helpful husband!) Thanks for all the gifts you four - although the biggest gift is pending each day with all of you! We had corn on the cob with our dinner on Mother's Day. It was a big hit by everyone, even Annalyse ate it! Cuddly Annalyse
While Mike was in the shower, I was blow drying my hair, and Megan was upstairs in her bedroom, the twins decided to have a party. I should have known better than to leave the box of granola in the middle of the kitchen table (with Meredith not buckled into her booster)...but I guess I didn't know better. This is what I came down stairs to... So, I did the only logical thing ... LAUGH! I guess they taught me someting today! ALL GONE!
