Rainbow

We had a spring storm come through last night!
Lundon freaked out about the thunder and clung to me. 
Breck refused to eat dinner because he was to interested in the storm. Asking tons if questions about why it's loud, why the lightning, why the rain????

So I tell him. 
What I was told when I was little and scared of storms. 

The thunder is God bowling with our grandmas, grandpas and loved ones. 

The lighting is a strike. 

And the rain is tears of laughter form having so much fun. 

Why not. Sounds amazing to me. 

And because he didn't eat supper we decided to go to Dq? Okay that doesn't make much sense now that I write it. But this mom wanted a treat.

We got stuck in the storm eating our treats and on our way home we saw a beautiful rainbow. So we jumped out and took a picture!
He is my sunshine! 


Adventure four: movie time!

Did I tell you already how much I have enjoyed spring break!
I LOVE hanging out with my loves... 
Although today was a bit challenging. He bugs her.  She bugs him. She gets into everything because she is one. He gets into everything because... He is a boy! Same old story. New day. But wouldn't change it for the world. 

Today I had a date with my Brecker! Lundon stayed home with grandma for a much needed nap while we visited the Hutchinson State Theater. 
We love the cheap theater. 
Tickets are $2.50
Movies are new ish.. To us because we don't ever see movies or rent them! So today we saw Paddington Bear. 

Super cute movie. Lots of action so the kids loved it. Funny so the kids loved it. Plus wasn't so cheesy that even I loved it. 

All week we have been able to hang out with some pretty amazing friends too. The kids are having a blast and us moms are enjoying some adult interaction time. I think the only problem is...I've gained ten pounds because if all these fun play dates. 
Totally worth it!!

Kids had a Dance party at the end.  Yup we were those people at the theater! Ha!

Breakfast on the go!

Im always looking for easy breakfast foods and I think I've hit another successful one!
Kids loves them. I love them.
Recipe:
8 crescent rolls
4 eggs
4 slices of cheese
4 sausage links

Preheat oven to 350
Roll out crescent rolls 
Scramble eggs. Cut cheese and sausage in half. Fill creacent rolls with eggs cheese and sausage. 
Wrap them up! (Most of them I was able to pinch sides to cover the stuff inside and make a little ball)
Bake 15 minutes. 

I doubled my recipe and threw them in a freezer bag so we could heat and eat on busy mornings.  

So good! Enjoy.

Adventure three: Kids World

Why haven't I heard of this before...
Man, we have been missing out on some good fun. 

A church in Willmar offers free indoor play  on Wednesday mornings from 9:30-11:30 

It's. Amazing. 

It's a big open space. With a huge indoor jungle gym for big kids.  Small jungle gym for little kids. A tree house with games. A tree trunk hid out. Big blocks. Dance mat and music games. Big squishy bean bags. An open gym area for riding toys and balls, hula hoops, and jump ropes.
Did I mention... It's FREE!
So worth the drive every wednesday aid you can. We will be seeing a lot more if this place this summer when I'm off.  
Had lunch with peeps then home for naps!
Winner winner. 

On the downside: 
I caught a nasty cold and feel crummy. But it won't stop me from having fun with my favorite people. 

Oh and another downside.  I love love my job, but I could so stay home and play/teach these fun little sponges all day.  
I've been hinting this to Jerod lately...he either isn't getting the hint or is ignoring it!!!

Adventure two: Learn and Play Cafe



Our spring break adventure brought us to Hopkins to the Play and Learn Cafe! It's a new indoor playground and cafe ALL KID FRIENDLY. Super cute.  Super fun. 
We joined a couple other litchfield friends here. The older kids took a class where they made cities and tested them out on a tray of marbles to represend an earthquake. 
They had a blast! 
And the price was right! Breck was $11.00 for class and playtime and $5.00 for Lundon to play. Worth it for some afternoon fun. 
There was an indoor climbing set, slides, trikes and scooters, baby area with ball pit, kitchen set and more! 

This was just so neat.  I have always talked about having a fun place like this in Litchfield. A place where kids can play during the long winters and got summer days. And moms can come watch their kids and sip on coffee and delicious cupcakes and meet up
With friends.  What do You think?! 

After we left it hasn't kept swirling my mind. I may contact this mom and pop shop and she what and how they did this. ( we saw the owner was a young lady and her husband was there cleaning up toys at one point) (think Jerod would do that for me?! Heehee) 

Either way. Another fun. Successful. Day.

TBP Lundon's Mohawk

That's it!
Just need to remember this stage.  Nope, I didn't spike it.  It's all natural. 

Although It could be because her big brother gave her a hair cut at one month old whole dad was watching them and mom was at a meeting. 

I'm not blaming dad.  Not really. 

TBP

Here I am again. Playing catch up. So it's obviously easier to post recent events but  what about the big things that happened this past year! I realized after talking to a friend that I am ill. She wanted to start a a blog and I encouraged her saying how fun it is.  She reminded me that she checks mine often to see if I have blogged and unfortunately doesn't find much as I haven't blogged in a long time. I told her how I get anxiety over this.  I lay in bed and think of how much I love blogging, but am afraid to do it again because I missed so much in the past year and feel so bad.  I blogged Breck first four years and poor Lundon, I think I made it to maybe six months. Ugh. But again.  I love going back and reading posts about my boy, life, family! AND I absolutely love reading my friends blogs! So...


After much thought. I decided just do it. Blog. Blog when you can. The only one beating you up is yourself. And it's better late then never. So. Let's. Try. This. Again. 

So blog posts that are from the past year will be TBP Throw Back Posts! 

This is kind if where I left off.  Oh sweet babies!!!!
