Monkey Joes

I decided to take the twins to Monkey Joe's to let them burn off some energy. This is a place that is nothing but inflatable jumpy things. The twins absolutely loved it. They bounced their little hearts out.

Shroomin' '10

We headed down to the farm a little bit earlier than usual this year to try and find some morels. We only found about 10 little ones, but we had fun visiting with grandma.

Max's world

Max had some good times this month so far.. The day we went to Peoria, he stayed with Grandma Pam and Papa George and got to race his pinewood derby car again at the Moose. He was up against some tough competition, but came out victorious!! He was so proud of himself, and to top it off Papa George gave him $100 bucks!

His boy scout troop also had their Dad & Lad cake bake off this month too.. Mommy came up with the idea of making a cool rocket ship out of cupcakes and then frosting them.. Daddy canned that idea and came up with the idea of making an aircraft carrier with less than 1 hour and 30 minutes before meeting time.. Well it turned out ok, even though we were frosting a very warm cake :)

Peoria visit

We got to celebrate some early wedding festivities with Bill's cousin Shannon and her fiance Dan. It was nice to see family we haven't seen in awhile and catch up with.

Random April Shots

I know I have been slacking on this blog.. It has been hard to dedicate some time to this and my other 100 things to do each day.. So you get some random pics... :)

Easter Egg Hunts

The kids got to do two different Easter egg hunts this year and they had a blast doing them.. Keira was only interested in the pink eggs, but she sucked it up and collected others too.

Twins B-day

The twins turned 3 and celebrated at home and at Chuck E Cheese.. Isn't it fun to be 3??

Random kid shots

Here are a few shots that were taken in March...

Megan's party

Megan just wanted a few friends from school to play miniature golf, so I booked a little party at Rink side in Gurnee Mills. They had some ice cream, played a few games, and had a 18 hole round of golf. In and out and over in less than 2 hours. woohoo :)

Megan's B-day

Megan turned 11 and requested a last minute Garfield cake. Of course, I didnt have any frosting mix to make black frosting. So the cat was orange and blue :) It turned out a lot better then I expected. She finally got her Ipod touch that she has been wanting for quite some time now.
