St. Patrick's day fun

Today (Saturday) we decided to make some St Patrick's day goodies. The kids had fun and it is becoming a tradition for us to do this for each holiday we celebrate. Nothing beats spending some time together and making something delicious!

1st Sunday of March, 1st time at a new church

Today was a great day! All 3 of us got up and managed to get ready for church and made it!! We tried out a new church today and all of us really enjoyed the visit. We are going to try out the action night so the kids can see if they like it there, can't wait!  We spent the afternoon doing chores and just hanging out having family time.

    On a sadder note, it seemed like I spent the evening yelling at all 3 for the whining, not doing chores, climbing on the furniture, beating each other, etc

Super day today!

Today marked a first!! Deric got himself up, dressed, and ate breakfast all on his own, with time to spare before his bus came!!!  No fighting, rushing, or screaming!!! Which made for a great start to the day which was good too! Babysat this morning, Did some housework, paid some bills and hung out with my best friend for the afternoon and babysat again tonight.
    Went to the Salvation Army store and found the perfect table to make a great project from Pintrest. Can't wait to start it tomorrow.  Came home from errands to find I had won a photo contest I entered and got a gift card to my favorite restaurant!!

Watching TV together in silence!!

Gav being a ham!

     For the most part, tonight was wonderful!, the boys played well together and with their best friends with no fighting or crying from anyone! Was almost a perfect day.
