Spray & Rub


Mid-month Boppa came to our house for a visit. She flew out to help us while Lant went to start his new job as Service Center Manager and I looked for a new place to live. Yes, finally we are moving. But the kids and I will be staying until the school year and baseball are finished. We also planned a little trip with friends to Vegas, and yup that is this week too. Thanks Boppa for all the help.

But while we were gone and Holyn was at school, Max and Boppa did some cleaning for us. Little did we know, Boppa has ignited Max's inner Mr. Clean. He loves to dust! But we don't call it dusting, he coined the phrase "spray and rub". We were somewhat afraid he would spray the pledge in his eyes, so we grabbed his goggles from his tool bench set and he was protected to clean all day. We have figured out he doesn't love cleaning floors and laundry as much as the dusting, so I guess we can't push it. Check out him in action.

Spring Break is Over... or maybe just Spring

Well back to school for both kids today, and we wake up to snow. Yes, snow! I thought we were going to have a spring this year. Nope. We did end up going to Monsters vs. Aliens on the 1st, but they got us for seeing the 3D version. An extra $3 a ticket (I bet that covered our Buddy Holly glasses) but what the heck it was cool. I ate way too much popcorn, and just kept eating like it was going to disappear if I didn't shove in another handful after I finished chewing (the bucket was larger than a barrel).

Holyn got sick on Friday of spring break with 5th Disease (which Max had as an 18 month old) and Lant and I had it too. I have to say, it was the worst two weeks of a cold ever. Thank God everyone is healthy again (where's the wood to knock on?)

Just Hangin'

This week we are on Spring Break. We have sucessfully watched every cartoon, played every computer game and its only Wednesday. I think today we will probably go to the grocery store for more snacks and maybe take in a little "Monsters vs. Aliens" in 3D. I don't know how much more togetherness we can take in the house! Where is the fabulous Spring Break weather?
