This spring break was the first that we actually had no plans for travel or moving, or much of anything really. Of course it always consists of Carter's birthday, which he decided to celebrate at the bowling alley again this year. $100 for 2 hours for 10 kids to bowl?? Yes son, you sure may have your party there once again! The same sweet young girl was assigned to our party as last year, and she remembered us as well and was nice enough to throw in pizza and more drinks! So I will once again highly recommend the Bowlarama for all your party needs. And I have since found out the the general manager is a member of our church, which makes me even more apt to support it.
We celebrated Molly's birthday with a party at her house, a breakfast party where the kids wore their pajamas. Carter was insistent that Molly needed a light saber for her birthday, and we even bought Claire one just to even the score a bit. I'm pretty sure that Emily probably tossed them in the top of a closet shortly after that. And I don't blame her. We also had a fun play date with them later in the week. I love getting to catch up with Em and watch the kids play!
The only other thing that we did that week was an outing to the Children's Aquarium at Fair Park. The Ya-Ya's took all our kidlets and took Bebe, Lala, and GramPam with us. The kids loved it, especially the older kids, and the younger ones were well behaved. We were able to do the whole aquarium and lunch at Razoos afterwards, so I would call that a success!
