Spring Break 2018!

Date Mar 26-30th

We played and played and played during Spring Break!
These kiddos wore me out!! lol

Swimming

So this year it was abnormally chilly for spring break.
They only way I agreed to go swimming is if it was a heated pool! lol
Community Center for the win!
I seriously think the water was warmer than the air outside!











  Backyard Fires and Night Games




Anden and Owen perfected the art of exploding water bottles over the fire.
Ya Ryan may have taught them that one!









Peeps Smores






Camping on the Trampoline

Where we made bets they wouldn't make it all night outside.
Since it was way chillier than normal!
They claim they made it until 6am.
When I checked at 7am they were up in Anden's room!
Hhmmm



Hiking

Yes I was crazy enough to take 5 kids hiking with just me.
And of those 5 kids, 2 are toddlers!!
But we made it!!
I carried Eastlie most of the way
while Laiky rotated between big siblings!


Eastlie really wanted to walk on the easier parts.
So we let her!
Ahh she looks like such a big kid!







Anden gave my arms a break for a bit!
Phew!



And we finally reached the top!
I swear the littles had fun even though one is screaming trying to get out of Taylee's arms
and the other refused to look at the camera! lol sheesh




I cracked up laughing when I saw this picture and noticed the antics behind me.
Oh Eastlie, we're so mean that we won't let you run away and fall off the mountain!






Of course there's always a rock throwing contest










And with that we loaded up and marched (more like slipped) right back down the mountain.
I may have seen my life flash before my eyes when I slipped in loose rock
while carrying Eastlie and about tumbled down the hill!!
Luckily Anden's scrawny shoulder braced my fall! lol
(which really meant I about took a 2nd child down with me!!)

Easter Egg Dying

Which I repeated my genius move last year to dye craft eggs instead of real eggs.
I just warned everyone there will be NO skateboarding while dying eggs/houses this year!
Luckily Anden was at a friend's house and not present for this activity!
And I moved the dying to the grass instead of patio.

Oh and the towels hanging on the back fence
is because earlier that day somehow Laiklyn managed to plug my bathroom toilet
and there was literally a swimming pool in there!!!
I screamed at the big kids to grab me towels to soak it up...or use as a raft! ugh
Never a dull moment.

Ok back to Easter Eggs















The finished product.
The girls loved doing this!
And I loved that you can put the dye in a ziploc bag with the egg
and then seal it before handing it to a toddler to rub the dye onto the egg!
Mess Contained!!









Alright girls, just one picture with everyone looking!
ummmm ya





Boom, that'll work.
All eyes forward and 2 of the 3 smiling! lol


Park Adventures

I believe this may be the world's lowest tree branch! lol



Easter Mani's and Pedi's

You've gotta love a mother daughter matching mani/pedi!


and then the joys of transporting big kids
and oh dirt bikes to their dad's house!
But at least I now know what the 3rd row seat is like! lol


And then I went back home and crashed!
It takes a lot to keep up with these crazy kiddos!
