Ice Sleet Snow Go Away!


Ice, Sleet and Snow didn't stop us from going 4-wheeler riding on Tuesday at MooMoo's house. There wasn't too much snow about it, but more a whole lot of sleet with an occassional flurry. I don't know if you can see it, our coats are really wet. We called ourselves the "Bandits", Lane and I are "Bandits 3." 3 is his favorite number, probably because he is 3. Sean and Lane really wanted to go outside, I on the other hand could have stayed inside but as a parent you try not to instill into your child that they can't do something because per say the weather. So hopefully this is one parenting skill I sometimes do right and we do stuff no matter the weather. And seriously it's Indiana weather, if you listened to the weather man everyday and waited for the most perfect beautiful day, you would never plan anything. Grandma MooMoo didn't help much with my parenting, the entire time while she is getting dressed she is saying "I hate putting on all of these clothes." Yes, it helped alot trying to get my kids dressed, NOT. We had a great time and my kids and I got some fresh air that we so badly need this time of year.

Silly Safari


Silly Safari came to our preschool for a education afternoon of fun with animals. As you see, Sean got to hold the tree frog. We had a little excitment when the baby kangaroo tried to escape. The animal keeper and a couple of parents pounced up to catch him before he jumped off the stage and he had the whole fellowship hall to run around in. That would have been a sight though, watching kids and parents trying to catch a fast baby kangaroo. We might have won some money from America's Funniest Home Videos if someone was recording, which I am sure they were.

It was fun watching the kids pet some exotic animals. All of the kids got to pet a baby kangaroo at the end. Of course my battery died at the end so I didn't get a picture of Sean or Lane petting the kangaroo. He never tried to escape after the first time.
