Party at the Park

Today we were at a birthday party at a new park. It was VERY windy, but all the boys had fun. Colin really loves swinging. Liam & Quinn ran around and climbed on the play structures. They didn't seem to mind how windy it was. Everyone had to hold onto their plates while eating cake or else it would have blown away. Quinn's cake actually did fly onto Liam's arm. Never know what to exect at a birthday party!

Remember when?????

These babies are turning 7 this year. AHHH! Sometimes I like to look at their baby photos to remind myself how cute they are. Because, you know, some days they don't act cute anymore. What's that you say?.....You don't believe me??? Let me think of any instances of this from today....hmmmm.....

Quinn threw things at me today because I took away the remote for the X-Box when it was no longer his turn......Liam was mad because I didn't have tortillas to make him a quesadilla.....and both were upset when I told them we wouldn't be going to the Dollar store on Sunday after Great Grandma had given them $1. ooooh.....I'm sooooo mean!

It was more physically demanding caring for twin babies, but now my patience is being tested to the limits. Guess I need to develop more!

Bishop's Breakfast

Today was the annual Bishop's Breakfast. This is something Liam & Quinn look forward to ALL YEAR! Every few months they ask, "When is the Bishop's Breakfast?" We go to a nearby park & the Bishop has his counselors cook the breakfast while he greets everyone. (HA HA). Every year the food is about the same: pancakes, scrambled eggs & sausage. I think L & Q love it because it is eating outside......and they love pancakes too.

The thing that was different this year is that Liam & Quinn got to ride their bikes to the breakfast. Yes, no lie. They rode from our house, uphill to the park. Thanks to Gramma & Grampa Luker for riding along with them.

After breakfast there is usually an activity for the kids. This year, for some reason, there was no activity. But my kids had fun anyway trying Bocce ball and Horseshoes. Quinn even had a few ringers!

Colin & the Old Lady

Today I was wearing an Old Navy fleece pullover when Colin asked me what the label said.

Me: It says Old Navy.

Colin: Oh, you an old lady?

Me: No (trying not to laugh) Old NAVY.

Great, he thinks I'm old already??

Also today......

Grampa: Colin, do you want some breakfast?

Colin: No thank you. I'm just fine.

How many 2 year olds answer like that????
