monday afternoon

day 1 of spring break.
so far, so good.

we had a wonderful weekend with amazing weather.
we hung out with friends on friday night. . . always a treat.
saturday was our first completely free saturday in months.
it was a work day and it was awesome.
we spent all morning on the garage.
and miracle of miracles, we can both park in the garage.
it was such a great sense of accomplishment.
we filled our outdoor trash can. love that.

the boys played around in the yard and ruby was overseer in her stroller. :)

there were lots of little boy bike riding & wagon rides.
avery even rigged up the "bike ride" to his bike to pull sawyer around the yard.

he is such a good big brother.

he had a big kid job of picking all the pine cones & sticks out of the yard.

sawyer was happy to help out every once in a while. :)

i spent the afternoon cleaning the house and finally called it quits at 5pm. 

i earned my keep that day. ;) 

on sunday we had church and lunch and then i put the third coat of paint on ruby's high chair. 

i just need to poly it and add a seat belt and it should be ready to go.

there's been a whole lotta march madness going on in this house. 

and laundry folding......thankfully aj always folds clothes while he watches. 

so i am very happy to let him watch. :)

we have our little friend, jamaiya, here for a few days. 

the boys have had a blast with her so far.

painting, playing, bike riding, jumping . . . 

and in avery's standard fashion....he's doing a lot of this: 

he never tires of drawing. 

i love that kid.

and then yesterday afternoon, i downloaded this:

and oh mercy, i know why everyone is crazy about it. 

i'm on page 173.

i would probably finished already if i didn't like sleep so much...and didn't have 5 kids to take care of.  

and btdub, i love kindle cloud and swag bucks! 

i had $5 in my amazon account from swagbucks so it cost me 1 cent to download this.

and i put it on the kindle cloud so aj and i could both have it on our phones. 

so handy.

let's just say, i will not be reading blogs or looking at pinterest this week.
