Our Adventure Day

We had an adventure day with the kids. We figured that a day focused on them was needed since school has started and they are gone all day, and basically just come home, do homework, eat dinner, bathe and go to bed. We started the day with Ron's football game (which they won), then a birthday party for a family in the ward. These weren't part of the "adventure", but fun activities nonetheless. Our first adventure was a stop at Baskin Robins. The kids got to pick their own ice cream. Cierra and Dylan both settled on orange sherbet and Jonah on chocolate chip.

Everyone is finished except Cierra....as usual....such a lady with her legs crossed.

Our second adventure was the base park. We never go to this particular one so they thought it was pretty cool.

Our third adventure was a trip to the dollar store to pick out a toy. Always an adventure at the dollar store....especially in San Antonio.

Is that Dylan??? OOh he scared me!!

Our final adventure was a trip to the duck pond to feed the ducks.

Dead duck.

The babies were there too.

Another tree photo-op.

We had a blast. It was hot and we were ready to come home. Their only request was that next time we do an adventure day that we somehow end up at Chuckycheese!!

Awwww Mom...can't we just go to bed?

I was doing some things around the house so I put the babies in their saucers to keep them from staying under-toe. They were whining now and then, but I chose to just ignore it. Then it was quiet and I thought they had just figured out that they had to just wait until I was done......guess not.

This gem is taken at his moms wedding reception. Apparently he was too hot and decided to strip down. Crazy kid.

Way to go Josh!

Josh received a citizenship award in Kinder last year. Way to go!!

First Day of School

Well, we made it through the first week of school pretty smoothly. Dylan started first grade. His teacher is Ms. Archibald. She says that he is a great helper to her. Cierra started Kindergarten and her teacher is Mrs. Solis.

Other than getting up early, they seem to really like going to school.
