Life in an Instant: Never a Dull Moment

by Stacy on August 12, 2011

The kids have been keeping me super busy lately, exploring and adventuring and making friends all over the place. It’s hard for them not to, wherever they go, they strike up conversations, make others smile and occasionally put on quite the performance.

Breakdancing at the local froyo
[insert caption here] Let's see what you come up with
What a bunch of goofballs

Check out these crazy pics — tidbits of our trip to a local frozen yogurt shop. Sweet decided it was a great place for breakdancing and brought in quite a crowd with her killer moves. Seriously, she cracks me up!

Day at the water park + slushies get a big thumbs up!!

The days are long and HOT around here, but we’re still managing to make the most of them. This requires lots of fluids. Usually of the frosty kind. And waterparks, don’t forget waterparks! We met some of our friends at a cute little ranch in Bandera and made a day of splashing and playing and lazing on rivers. We just HAD to stop at Sonic on our way home and sample some happy hour slushes. Raise your hand if Sonic Happy Hour is your favorite kind of happy hour? Me, Me!!
When it's just too hot outdoors, have a picnic under the table!
When it’s too hot to picnic outdoors, we say bring the picnic — indoors! and while you’re at it why not do it UNDER the table. Makes for an uber cool other wise boring lunch and if done in PJ’s, you get extra points.
Big Brother teaches Little Brother
We haven’t been able to water our lawns for months, thanks to serious drought restrictions in our area, but the boys are doing their best to keep things green. No, really … we are starting down that potty training path … yet again, and big brother has been quite the helper. Things get easier the more you do it I guess. Little loves to use the potty just like he loves to do whatever else his brother and sister are doing!

Girl Time

Nothing like a little girl time to make the ones you love feel special. First, cookie baking wearing our favorite aprons (psst, did you know we make them for you guys too?). Next, some Carebear hugs! Finally, a trip to the Farmer’s Market to sample some of the finest cold limeade there ever was!
It's Family Pizza Night!! Time to make the dough
Finally, there were homemade pizza nights. Lovingly kneaded and rolled by these goofy chefs.
Gorgeous Girlies!
This kid loves him some @katesfrosting pimento cheese
Days at the park with the bestest of buds and Pimento Cheese sammies & cupcakes smashed in ice cream that really just can’t be beat.

There you have it. Our life, in an instant. Never dull, although may be a bit too sweet. I guess a little more sugar than normal is alright when you’re as active as these guys are. So, how was your week? What tasty treats did you sample or meals did you make with your kids?

Doesn't get much sweeter than Kate's @katesfrosting

Looks like a fun-filled week!

I am a fan of indoor activities (baking, games, etc.) with short bursts of outside since it’s 842 degrees outside. I’m a wimp!

Yay for homemade pizza and cookies!

OK, first, it just doesn’t get any better than Happy Hour at Sonic. Really. And second, how can you possibly go wrong with a trip to the farmer’s market??? Granted ours doesn’t make limeade, but still, it’s an excursion that’s hard to top!

PS– thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving a comment! I really appreciated it and you’re right, our week’s were very similar! ~Jenn
