Spring breakin at su casa

It was a long….sometimes really fun…. many times stressful….with a little bit of laziness mixed with chill sort of a week. Keeping the kids off of the computer, IPAD, Wii and TV is a full time job. I’m already dreading the heat of the summer and tackling that task once school is out… but I will worry about that when the time comes. Here’s some of the many things we did this week:

HOMEMADE BUBBLES

HIKING

WE HIKED FOR 1 1/2 HOURS AND THEY LOVED IT….THE TRICK WAS I GAVE EACH ONE A BAG AND TOLD THEM DAD WAS SAD HE COULDN’T COME SO WE HAD TO FIND AWESOME THINGS TO PUT IN OUR BAG TO TAKE HOME AND SHOW HIM. WORKED LIKE A CHARM!

A moment that melted my heart: Sadie lifting her little sister so she could feel the nail prints in Jesus’ feet

These boys sure can sing…. but they always like to put their own twist on things with the REEVES STYLE! Here they are singing for their parents who are on a mission in Mexico.

Spending the day at the Children’s Museum…
