Mustache Day


The day that almost wasn't!  The boys stayed home sick the day before mustache day and they were so glad they were going to be able to go to school the next day.  They didn't want to miss it!  And then I completely forgot about it the next morning and sent them off to school without mustaches.


I suddenly remembered about an hour after I had taken them to school so I rushed back.  Poor Benny had thrown a fit when he realized what day it was and didn't have his mustache.  He didn't want anyone else's mustache either!  He wanted his super special green one.  He agreed to wear a borrowed black one on his shirt "until his mom came with his green one."  So so glad I remembered.

Pirate Weekend


Pirate Weekend at Sea Life Aquarium in Grapevine.





They had these treasure chests hidden in tanks around the aquarium.  The kids went on a scavenger hunt to find all of the letters.  Then they had to unscramble them to collect the booty … a bag of gold coins!  Had lunch at Rainforest Cafe afterwards.  So. Much. Fun.

Intro to Skating


We finally got Ben on the ice!!!  He was not so thrilled.  I was concerned that his foot might hurt since it was so freshly healed from being broken last month.  He definitely fussed about the skates, but they didn't seem to be hurting his foot.


I put him in Sam's old hockey pants since I knew he'd be falling quite a bit.


Sam quickly got back into the swing of things.



They were way more excited about going to McDonald's with their friends afterwards.

Happy New Year


We were up late watching a movie any way so we decided to let the boys stay up to watch the ball drop and ring in the new year with a fizzy drink and flashing lights!
