Hot Springs Weekend

We had such a great weekend in Hot Springs.  Saturday morning they were down at the lake feeding the ducks and trying to skip rocks.  Dad was a little worried that Turner was going to throw the rocks and himself into the lake.  Dad got ready to go to the races while mom and I took the kids to Jump City.  We all had a great time.  Its lots of fun for everyone and great place to get your energy out!  After jumping I met dad at the races while mom stayed home and played with Maggie and Turner.  They played outside the entire time!  Saturday we took the kids to the races with us and they did GREAT!  We had a box by the window and they really enjoyed watching the horses.  We went outside for a race or too and also down to the paddock area to watch them saddle up.  It was lots of family fun!  Sunday we went home early so that Maggie and Turner could play with DK and Jorgia.  The Coffee's came over for a while and it was really good to see everyone!  What a great weekend.

Poppy's Office

We stopped at Poppy's office on the way to Hot Springs this past weekend.  Maggie wanted to try on some glasses so then Turner had to try on some too.  It so reminded me of when I was little (well I still do it) when I would try on lots of glasses and want to wear them when I didn't need them.  I thought I could fool my dad in my exam but it never worked.  Mom picked them out a pair to play with for the weekend.  They had fun wearing them around the house.  Oh the memories of Poppy's office!!!!

Monkey See Monkey Do!

We had Turner's birthday party with his friends on January 14th.  We had to postpone it because Maggie had hand foot mouth virus the week before his December party and I didn't want to risk anyone else getting that at our house.  We had a sock monkey theme party.  We just had a few friends over and because the weather was so pretty we played outside on the swing set, rode bikes in the driveway, and played in their new playhouse.  It was very laid back and fun!  We had banana shaped cookies, banana pudding, and banana nut cupcakes.  After playing for a while and eating he opened his presents.  I think he was very appreciative of everything.  He had a huge smile on his face with everything that he opened. Thanks everyone ---- Happy Birthday Turner!

**A couple of days before Turners party Maggie asked "Is Turner going to be 3?" I said "No, why?" She said "Well he already had his 2 yr party at Babe's house."

 Sidney even came out for the party.

 Shaylene made this for our bean bag toss.

 Having some snacks!

 Babe and Maggie

 That is one way to share.

 Yes he got a Ken Barbie for his birthday.  Now he has one that is his.  Plus doesn't every Barbie need a Ken?

"Hey look Babe"

Saddle Up!

Hudson had a Cowboy party last weekend.  Mom stayed at home and got everything ready for Turner's birthday party that afternoon.  We played outside in the backyard, in the playroom and anywhere they could find toys.  For lunch we had Hudson's favorite Chick-fil-a nuggets, deer chili (it was wonderful), chips and dip and some fruit.  After lunch we headed into the garage for the pinata.  I think it was made of steel!  After the kids got bags full of candy we had cake and cookies.  It was a great birthday party!  Happy Birthday Hudson!
