You know you live in Chickendale, when.....

Stopped at a stoplight, a chicken truck is next to us. Treyson is frantically waving and about to pop out of his 5 point harness as he yells, "Hi little chickens!" over and over and over! Meanwhile, Anniston says ponderingly, "Mommy, how are those chickens going to die so that we can eat them?" I've learned....don't make something up, and see what they think. So I respond, "I don't know, what do you think?" Anniston says, "Well, I bet they have a really big grill and they put them all on the grill, right Mommy?" I say, "Maybe". She says, "Or maybe they bake them in the oven."

It's fitting that their Dadoo's employer is a MAJOR chicken company worldwide! HA!

Loving this Warm Weather!!

The weather this week has been GORGEOUS! Tuesday after school/work, we raced home, packed a picnic dinner, and went back to the park. The kids had so much fun!

Anniston slid down the pole for the first time on Tuesday....she has done is 27 times since!! HA!

After we ate dinner, we went over to feed the ducks!

We forgot to bring extra bread, so the ducks enjoyed some animal crackers!

This is making us so excited for Spring...YAY!

Skating!

Kinley was in town a few weeks ago with her Mommy, so Nanny and PawPaw came up to stay with us while she was here. Kinley wanted to ice skate with all of us since she had seen our pictures from before! Here we are on our way!

PawPaw R with all of his sweeties!

Nanny and T-Man!

Mommy's little ice princess!

I didn't get any pics of Kinley skating....just videos, and I don't think she'd like me posting them. Ice skating was a rough start for Kinley, but she ended up trying a second time and did MUCH better!

Valentine's Party at school

WE LOVE SCHOOL PARTIES! The kids had their Valentine's party on Valentine's Day! Mommy was so grateful that she doesn't have to work Mondays so that we could all go!
~
Classroom parties are Yum, Yum, Yum!! Treyson was SUPER PUMPED about Cheetos being on the menu!

Valentine's Day Present!

Mommy and Dadoo got the kiddos a Valentine's Day toy. We let them open them after they had eaten their heart-shaped Krispy Kreme donuts!

Treyson is SO EXCITED!

She's realizing what's inside...

YAY! We can bake cookies!!

Treyson's getting a first peek at his present!

Play-doh kit that has a puppy dog to make fun shapes/sizes!

"Can you open this now Mommy"???

Happy Valentines Day to Mommy and Dadoo's sweethearts! We love you both so much! You two are the best Valentine's that Mommy and Dadoo could ever want!

Treyson's first movie....

We took the kids to see "Gnomeo and Juliet" on opening weekend. The movie was SO cute! It was also Treyson's first time to go to the movie theatre. Doesn't he look so cute? Despite his cuteness, he will not be going to another movie for awhile! He wasn't BAD, but he didn't do very well. He is not a TV watcher, so I'm not sure why we thought he'd sit for an hour and a half watching a movie! We thought it would be so overwhelming that it would capture his attention....WRONG!

We'll try again once he can sit down and watch a 30 minute Disney cartoon!! HA!
