I feel like we have been so busy lately but enjoying life. On Thursday the kids and I went to the Environmental Nature Center in Turtle Rock for a pre school field trip. It was so fun to watch the kiddos play and they were so excited to be at the park. We were only at the ENC for a short time. Mostly the kids were happy at the park. This park has a little stream and all the kids were in it with the ducks. It was so cute. I am so glad we held the kids back as if they were in kinder now they wouldn’t be having all this fun.

Alan and T were having dinner at Grandma/pa’s that night so the kiddos decided they wanted to go. I got to go to the pre school general meeting, waste of time. I am feeling so much better. The blisters are all scabs and almost all gone. On Friday night, 3/18, our neighbors gave us tickets to see Wicked. So dad and I had a date night. It was nice to be out. I always feel so guilty leaving Nicole especially at bedtime so I made a mommy pillow for her. I took one of our big king pillows and dressed it with a polo and shorts. It was so funny. I also left the kids notes on their pillows, just saying goodnight and reminding them we love them. When we got home I kissed Nikki and woke her up. Thank goodness she went back to bed easily but I will treasure that little moment. I went into Justin’s room and he woke up too. So I took him to the potty and we talked for a short bit, so nice. Wicked was pretty good but not sure I would run right out and see it again.

Today, 3/19 soccer started again. So many people from last season came back and some new friends. It was so nice to see so many people but a bit overwhelming. The kids both scored some goals and it was great to see them back on the field. They seemed to have a great time. After we went to some jamboree thing at Camp James. It was pretty neat. We had lunch then there were just a bunch of activities for the kids. Here is a picture of my little bunny:

When we got home Justin said he was tired and he is asleep right now. I hope he isn’t getting sick. Nikki is sitting here next to me watching Despicable Me. Justin took about an hour nap and seemed better. We had our friends come over-Justin was a little sluggy but after dinner was fine. The kids all played tonight and had fun together. And we had fun hanging out with some friends and having adult conversation. Kids are in bed and now I am going to relax. I felt like I ran around all day, playing, cooking, cleaning, etc.
