Action packed

Holy Moly! We’ve been going about 200 miles an hour today!

First, as promised, we took the boys to the John Deere dealership.  I wish you could hear the squeals of delight.  These boys were so excited, like Mama in the Nordstrom shoe department.  They kept saying “Look at this tractor! Look at this one! Look at this one!!!”   It was precious.  We took pictures and climbed all over the tractors like we didn’t have a care in the world, and thankfully no one kicked us off the lot. Ha!

Later this afternoon we headed over to Uncle Davey and Aunt Grace’s house.  Big C and I often chuckle and call their house Disneyland.  They’ve got it all—acres and acres of land, a motocross track (you read that correctly), of course tons of toys to play with, an enormous basement full of gymnastics equipment, and yes, more toys. 

The boys were so adorable playing with their cousins.  David III is the oldest and he’s a champion motocross rider in his age group, so proud of him.  He hung out with us for a while and then headed outside to do some practicing…Anne is in the middle and she’s a real sweetheart.  She's got a killer smile and she's super smart.  She had my phone doing things I didn’t know it could do!  She just got glasses today and she looked so stylish.  Aunt Courtney is inspired to go update her glasses now…Faith is the youngest at 4—she’s a bundle of energy and laughter, kind of like a mini happiness tornado.  Sometimes my CJ can take a while to warm up, but not around Faith!  She can pull him right out of his shell.  He loooves hanging out in Anne and Faith’s room, and they are so sweet to share everything they have with him, David too.  Hopefully the boys will pick up some of their sharing skills.

The kids had a ball playing and were so funny on the girls’ gym equipment.  We’ve been thinking of signing them up at a My Gym and I think we’re going to have to do that soon.  They love it!

Well we’ve had a great day.  They don’t get much better than this.  Except we miss Daddy, but he’ll be back tomorrow and we can’t wait.  These boys will be soooo excited.

Tomorrow’s Friday, yippee!!!
