Saturday Fun

Who needs Sunday Funday when you have Saturday Funday? These kids are crazy if they are not worn out because momma is beat!! Jim has worked a lot of hours the past two days so it's just been me and the crazies. Today was non-stop. We left the house early this morning and met up with Pam, Morgan and Kaitlyn. Morgan and Macie are BFF's (as much as pre-schoolers can be BFF's). We all jumped in Pam's Armada and went to a nearby community garage sale. Me, Pam and FOUR kids. Five females and Davis. Poor boy. He sucked his thumb, held onto his lovey for dear life and didn't make a peep the entire two hours. How can a boy get one word in when the car is filled with five other females anyway?

We scored some great stuff! I have been monitoring Craigslist lately for a power-wheels toy for Macie. All the kids on the street have them and Macie is always driving or riding in the neighbors. Today, I found a Barbie Jeep for Moo!! It was in great shape, well working battery and the price was right. Moo and I were both super excited!

Look at these two hams. How cute are they?? Arms around each other and all smiles. :)
Once the garage sale festivities were over, we headed out to a birthday for a very special friend. I can do pretty much anything with both kids, however, I was seriously outnumbered at the party. They each wanted to do opposite things AND they each wanted me. If I could split myself in two, it would have been all good. It worked out and it was fun, but, man, it was a lot of work!!

Macie got her face painted. She specifically wanted a "pink butterfly" ... and that was what she got! We also got some very neat balloons.

Happy 5th Birthday, Madison!! We had a great time at your party. Thank you for including us!!
