Spring Break Trip!!












We had such a fun Spring Break! Izze was out of school, whoo hoo!! We headed to Dallas, one of our favorite little get aways. We headed to our favorite places to shop and eat, that is one of the best parts of the trip for me. The kids got to ride the carousel, our tradition so far, this time we also took them to the Dallas World Aquarium. This was a lot of fun for them and us. They got to see all kinds of animals that we haven't seen close up before. They even got to feed blueberries to birds. This was a highlight! The last day we meet with some friends at one of our "newest" favorite places to eat, Texas de Brazil, it was a great way to end our little trip. All in all I just love being with my husband and kids, doing fun things, and experiencing new things together. Oh how I love these people God has given me!!


A couple of side note of the pics.
(the pic of Ian and I where he looks scared, is because he was. He didn't like being in the hall where it is all glass with water all around and every kind of fish is swimming on top of you. He was afraid of the sharks and the fish with the sword noses. Izze and Brian were standing in the hall glass, which she thought was cool)
(Ian is sitting next to a manatee separated by glass of course, but he liked that one)
(The bird with the blueberry in it's mouth is the one Ian just feed, it was pretty amazing they were so close)

Zoo, weekend, Spring Break..........

We had a fun weekend, which included a date night with my man!! Whoo Hoo! We tried out a new place, well for us, we had never been. Iguana Grill, tex mex food, so good. The queso was amazing, and the salsa fresh. We then headed to Sera Sera's for a cup cake. I tried the strawberry this time, it was really good... Then headed to see, "The Blind Side." One of the best movies I have seen in a long time. Worth Seeing. It was a great night with my husband, even got in a little Target... lol

We had a family breakfast together this weekend. This is one of my favorite things to do. We get up early, usually because the kids get us up before 7:00, then we head out. The kids love it too, they always get excited to go. I love, love my family. I am so blessed and grateful for them. Truly!!!

Today, Izze started Spring Break! It sounds so strange to say that, I just never imagined her in school. She is my baby, and always will be. She is excited to be out of school and so am I. This school thing has been a transition for all of us.

Today, our mom's group headed to the Zoo. The new Children's Zoo is open, and the kids had a blast. A little cool, but well worth it to get out and do something we haven't been able to do in a while. Thanks to all the ladies that came out, we had fun!

This Spring Break week is full of fun stuff for us! We are looking forward to it. We have a little trip planned some of the time, getting together with family in the weekend, meeting with friends tonight for dinner. Fun week ahead!!

Should have pics and update next time.

Have a great Spring Break to all!

Weekend happenings/random thoughts!

We have had such a great morning this morning with friends, even though the weather is rainy, and a little cold, we were filled with the warmth of friendship. Our mom's group was fun this morning at bouncin craze. The kids love this place, and they have added new stuff for the kids to play on. Izze had rosy cheeks the whole time, she just goes and goes in that place. Thanks ladies for the great conversation, it's nice to be able to talk with friends, and get some advice too.

This weekend was fun as well. Friday morning was the start of a consignment sale that a friend of mine and I go to every year. We wait in line to get in at 8:00AM, then rush to the racks of choice to hunt for our treasures. I ended up with some great buys, I love it. Even though I don't see my friend most of the time we are at the consignment we usually meet up with our piles of clothes to go through together, and we talk each other out, or into buying certain pieces. LOL

My mom stayed with us one night this weekend. Her husband was having heart surgery. Izze was very excited all day to see Nanny Faith. Izze gave up her bed to Nanny, so she could have a nice place to sleep, and Izze was excited to sleep with brother in his room in a sleeping bag.

We tried to grill hamburgers this weekend since the weather was great, and found out our propane was gone. Inside we came to cook them, we'll be getting a new bottle for the grilling season ahead.

Izze got to tour one of the Edmond fire stations on Friday, she was super excited about it, and still has the fire station tattoo on her hand to show off.

Sunday afternoon we cuddled on the couch with the kids, and watched a Disney movie of Ian's choice, it was great!!

I have a girls night coming...... I love getting together with my friends, I am better because they are in my life.

Have some exciting things coming up soon!!!!!

Have a good week all!

Wow, what a great day today is! Yesterday we left the back door open because it was so nice out, while the kids played. I love this weather!!! This week has gone fast lots of things to do, and get done. I have accomplished most of them too. Good feeling!! My mom is suppose to be staying with us tonight. Izze is really excited about this and that she will sleep in her bed, and Izze will get to sleep with brother.

Until next time, have a great weekend!!
