Look another visitor....

We had another visitor...my sister in law and kids. They were on Spring Break so they came to spend a few days with us. It rained and rained and rained plus our kids had school so we tried to make the best of it. We went to the Boonshaft Children's Museum and miniature golfing at Young's Dairy. We froze at the Dairy miniature golf but still had to get ice cream! Mostly we had lots of fun playing with each other. Now it is Patrick's families turn to come visit...hint hint!!!Summer and EastonTristan, Neighbor, and AllieYoung's Dairy-Miniature Golfing
Note Tristan can walk on both legs...last year when our cousins came to visit and we went miniature golfing, he had a full leg cast on.


Easter Fun!

We went to a Easter Egg hunt at a friends house...they probably had 50 people. Everyone brought 10 eggs per kid and a side dish to share. They have a huge backyard to hide lots of eggs. The kids came home with lots of loot. Tristan keeps asking when the next egg hunt is...
Off they go...

Playing games with hard boiled eggs...

Dyeing Easter Eggs....
Tristan kept asking if they had chocolate in them. We had to crack one and show him what a hard boiled egg looked like.

RIP

Our poor Ratter died today and the kids are kind of sad. The other one died a month ago so to all those that are grossed out by our pets...we are rodent free. I have to admit after a year of caring for them with the help of the kids I actually learned to like them but still wouldn't hold them. Rest in peace pet Rat!

Boonshaft Again..


We went to the Boonshaft Children's Museum with Aunt Wendi and the Noels. Everyone had a great time.



Our Unexpected Visitor

Ripleys Aquarium


One of our favorite stops was the Ripleys Aquarium. It had all kinds of fish displays and a shark tunnel but the kids favorites were the touch tanks. Mikayla and Dillan spent at least an hour leaning over to touch the sting rays.
