Spring Break Cruise...

For Spring Break this year, we decided to take the kids on a cruise with our good friends The Cirwinski's, who moved from Little Rock to Ohio back in November. We wanted to get the kids together (we both have 3, ages 3-9) and we threw out many ideas and the crusie won!! Leading up to the day we left, the kids asked many questions about the boat, like "where will we sleep, where do we eat, they have a swimming pool on the boat??" etc. They had no idea what to expect and were pleasantly surprised. They loved reconnecting with their friends and having TONS of fun!! The cruise started in Tampa and we went to Grand Cayman and Cozymel. Ever since we've been home, the kids are constantly asking when we can go on another cruise.

My SWEET Boys...

Took some fun pictures of the boys with their lollipops...

Let's Party!!

This year, for the first time, we decided to have a joint birthday party for Grant and Nicholas since their birthdays are only a month (to the day) apart. I always said when they were both school age, we would combine them. It is so hard to fit a party in before Christmas and then one right after Christmas.
The party fell on Grant's actual birthday, January 8th. We had the party at War Memorial Stadium and it was a hit. We knew it would be a fun party because we had Grant's 6th brithday party there too. We had TONS of kids turn out (we actually ran out of cake-1/2 sheet cake, gone) and the adults weren't even offered any!!
The weather turned out great and the kids had a great time running around on the field playing football. As always, the dads probably had the most fun on the field.

Happy Birthday Grant and Nicholas!!
