Spring break day four {city bus ride}

Wednesday night I asked the bus if they wanted to ride the city bus the next day.

They of course said Yes! This is something Jordan has wanted to do since he was 3.

I knew I wanted to make it happen this Spring break. I asked if they wanted to

ride in Lynden or go all the way to Bellingham. They wanted to go all the way to 

Bellingham and have lunch at Mcdonalds with the big play area! I checked out the

schedule and off we headed on an adventure. 

After lunch and playing at McDonalds we headed back over to mall where

the bus would pick us up to get us back to Lynden. We still had some time so they played in the

kid play area for a while then we went to a game place called Tilt. I had brought a bag full of 

quarters for us to play with! They played mainly skeeball until all the quarters were gone. They 

each picked out a prize with their tickets and we headed to the bus stop.

When we got back we went and picked another friend/class mate of Jordan's to play.

Michelle also had a friend over. Since both Jordan and Michelle had

baseball practice that night I took all 5 kids to Milts pizza for dinner.

I brought more quarters with us so they could play the games there as well.

It was a super fun day but I was very tired by the end of it.

Luckily I was able to get a little quiet time with the kids gone.

Spring break day three {bouncy house fun}

Yesterday Jordan had a friend come over for his first friend sleepover!

Since they are boys and have lots of energy I took them to Jump around fun zone.

They jumped, ran around, played Yahtzee off/on and drank a ton of apple juice in little cans.

After two hours we took a break to meet Josh for lunch at Billy McHales.

They really wanted to go back to play but I figured we should lunch settle a little bit

so we headed over to Cornwall Park to play for a bit. 

The sun was out but brrrr it was still cold especially with the breeze.

We ended staying another three hours at the Jump around Fun Zone.

They made some friends and just went hard almost non stop.

They did pause to play a few rounds of Yahtzee again, check out an 

I spy book and drink more apple juice.

When all the kids left they each got a dollar for the toy machines.

They bounced a bit more with the place to themselves then they were ready to head home.

We got home about 5:30 so I started some dinner while they had down time on the xbox.

They played basketball and toys inside for a but until I was ready for them to 

start settling down for bed. They watched a looney tunes and then we went for ice cream

at Edaleen Dairy. Then it was home, straight into jammies, Josh read to them

and tucked them in for the night. They were talking for about 45 minutes and then it was dead

silent. They were out for the count hard.

Today's adventure is riding the City bus to Bellingham!

Jordan has been wanting to do this since he was about three!

Movie and Menchies

Spring break is rolling along great!

I dropped Jordan off at a Spring training baseball camp

put on by the high school team. 

I then returned home to get Michelle and three of her friends to go see Divergent.

Michelle actually asked me to bring my camera and take pictures!

Best day ever!

We had plenty of candy, popcorn and drinks!

After the movie they all wanted to go to Menchies.

Lots of testing, choices, pictures and ipods.

When we got back the girls headed over to another girls house for a sleepover.

Jordan is off at baseball practice with Josh and I get a little down time!

Another successful Spring break day!
