One day during spring break it was cold and raining so decided to spend the day at an indoor water park close to my parents house. We could get a day pass and stay as long as we like! Molly had an AWESOME time! It has one of those buckets that dumped every few minutes and she was scared at first but eventually was okay!

My mom loved the hot tub. And so did the kids! That water in the regular pool was a little bit chiller than I would have liked so we made quick trips to warm back up! The lens got a bit foggy from the steam :)

Easter pictures

Easter this year was at the end of spring break. So that was nice as we were already to go to my parents house. The kids were looking forward to spending time on the farm.

Abby being silly with her sister Molly. Abby lost another tooth while at grandma's house!

Abby is SIX!!!

Abby and her friends went to Build A Bear to have a party! They got to pick out one bear and one shirt! They had a lot of fun there. After that we headed to the food court to have pink cupcakes with pink icing!

Birthday for everyone!!

We only have 1 party for all of us together with the family! It was a great time to pack the house and have fun.

Zach had 5 friends from school come bowling and have cake. They had 2 hours to bowl as much as they wanted! We got snacks and drinks and had a blast!
