The Bunch Goes to Spring Fling

The kids just finished the egg hunt.

Getting ready for the egghunt.
Isn't she cute with no sound?
  It is a tradition at T's school to close the school the Thursday before Good Friday and have a carnival. We have participated in this the past 4 years. It is a huge event. They have face painting, balloon animals, petting zoo, rock climbing wall, inflatable obstacle course, bounce houses, train rides, and the highlight which is the raffle baskets. Each raffle ticket is only $1 and some of the baskets are worth upwards of $300. This is our second year to win a basket. We won 4 tickets to the Dallas Zoo, 4 tickets to the Ft Worth zoo, 4 monthes of Taekwondo plus a uniform, disposable grill, picnic blanket, two portable folding chairs, and a nice big cooler with wheels. The girls wanted the nintendo 360 basket or the american girl basket, but instead they got the camping basket, which works for me because we have a big camping trip coming up. It was a gorgeous day. I am sure to remember how beautiful and sunny it was for the next 7-10 days while I wait for my sun burn to heal enough for me to comfortably wear clothing. I am also stuck wearing one necklace in particular because the outline of where it was is still VERY white. I have since put a bottle of sunscreen in my purse so this won't happen again. Luckily, the kids were fine. I hope everyone goes to church on Easter for what is sure to be the best sermon of the year. The girls are in the choir and having been practicing since Christmas so I cannot wait to see their performance! Blessings to everyone.

The Bunch Are Off To A Wonderful 2025 And Are Considering A Change 🤔

It's official, she has a college diploma!! Besides totally enjoying a drama free year, we have been consciously spending time doing things as a family and spending time with each child doing things they enjoy. D has been playing ball and watching movies with his larger "mini me" while A and I have been spending a lot of time in Dallas going to the theatre. A absolutely loves going to see off Broadway productions! I won't be surprised in the slightest if she ends up getting season tickets. Dallas Broadway does a lottery to each show where if they draw your name you have 3 hours to buy tickets for $39 each including all fees! That is an absolute steal! She actually won the lottery on Tuesday so we went that night to see the production of "& Juliet". The seats she won were FANTASTIC! They don't give you cheap seats in the back for the lottery. You win good seats. The seats we ended up with worked out to be only about a quarter of the regular price! We h...

The Bunch Visit Family

  We had fun playing some board games...and it wasn't even a fun jar idea! We just did it because it sounded like fun! The fun jar has been a little slow being implemented this year. T made sure to let me know! We're making up for it next week by drawing several things.  We have had a wonderfully busy week visiting family and getting things done around the house. We went over to my parents house to celebrate Father's Day and while the boys played games with Grandpa, the girls went with Grandma to show her what all the fuss about Trader Joe's is about. She enjoyed looking at all the different things and even found a few gems of her own. It was a nice day and fun to get out together for a little bit. We had a great day!🥰 We picked up Whataburger for my Dad as a treat and my mom made some tots and a side salad up to go with it.💗 We also had a nice long visit with our Aunt P. She's been under the weather and we hadn't had a visit in a couple weeks so it was nice t...

The Bunch Start Birthday Week

  Yes, my Mom had my name misspelled on the cake.😂 It was still yummy so it was all good. T, A, and I all have our birthdays within a week and a half. Which means there is a crazy amount of sugar within those 10 days. We always like to make whoever's birthday it is feel special for the day. We watch what they want,do activities they like, eat what they pick, do their chores for them, etc. It not usually too expensive, but just a fun day where it's focused on them. The kids use to use their days to rule like little kings and queens, but have become a lot calmer in their "old" age since they get to do whatever they want most of the time anyways. We are a pretty close family and do a lot of things together all the time anyways, but on birthdays we still make sure we defer to the birthday boy/girl. My birthday is first and the kids do so many nice things for me all the time, but they put forth an extra effort on my birthday. This year A even woke up early to turn the cof...
