Valentine's....oh my

What a crazy busy last week! The kids spent time carefully writing out all their valentines. We made 6 dozen cookies and a batch of brownie bites for the big school parties on Friday. I spent time with Joan and Connie Thursday night at the casino celebrating Connie's 60th Birthday! Saturday we had planned to take the kids bowling and they were sooo excited to find the bowling alley had a tournament going on and no lanes available. Instead we headed to my least favorite place, but we needed to eat- Chuck E Cheese. The kids had a great time, Austin and I were a little stressed with kids in all directions. Sunday was Valentine's Day! Austin and I treated ourselves to Indian Food- thanks to casino winnings. The kids picked bagel bites and chicken nuggets for dinner! They had valentine's from us waiting in the morning and then Grandparents stopped by bearing more gifts. Monday Austin was back to work and I was out numbered at home. Kendall started running a fever and off to Woodcreek she went- unspecified virus. The boys have been loving the Wii. Tuesday was time to enjoy the sunshine. The kids played a ton outside and we even went for a walk at the park, I walked, kids skateboarded and scootered. Wednesday means they will be back to school and thankfully for me I have the whole week off since I only work Mondays and Tuesdays-Hallelujah!

Meet Angel

Hi everyone!
Seems like forever since I posted as so much has been happening! I want to introduce you to Angel. He is 10 years old and Deaf.

He will be staying with us for awhile...... meaning we don't know how long, but we are happy to have him. It has been an adjustment for everyone, but thankfully a good adjustment! He is very sweet and fitting right in with the Fisher 5, so I guess until further notice we will be the Fisher 6 :0)

cup stacking

Kendall's cups finally arrived and she has been stacking non-stop! For those who don't know cup stacking is a sport and one that they work on in PE class. It is good for hand eye coordination. They start with 3 cups and work their way up and everything is timed. Pretty amazing how fast they get at it!
