The Bunch Deals with Oral Surgery and a Trip to the Great Wolf lodge

D after we got home from oral surgery.
          It is not often that two members of your family have to have oral surgery at them same time, but AJ and her dad did. AJ needed to have a frenectomy before the orthodontist could take off her braces and D was having a tooth pulled because he is "never having another crown again". While not comfortable, both were fairly easy procedures where gas was used instead of sedation. I had to bring AJ's youngest brother and sister with me because hello I home school where else could they be if dad was here too. Lucky for me Dr. Steele has an awesome surgery room with a huge built in bench that we could all sit on and watch AJ have her surgery done. Lucky for the kids that they behaved and didn't once get off that bench! She was really funny on the gas! Dr. Steele took time going between our room and her dad's and in about an hour we were all ready to leave. AJ had no issues with her stitches and was pretty much back to normal almost immediately. Daddy however had considerably more pain. I think he was milking it so he could play angry birds on the tv all day!

       After recovering for about 5 days we headed to the Great Wolf Lodge to play before the tickets I won expired. It was a lot busier than I anticipated for a Monday at 1:00pm. Don't people have to work and go to school? We had a great time, but after a couple of hours we were very tired and hungry so we left. Last time we went was in January and while the water is warm then it was really cold leaving. This time it was almost 90 out so it just felt refreshing on the way to the car.

The youngest has only 2 more times left to go to preschool next week and then he will start being home schooled for kindergarten. I have to admit I am a little scared. The girls and I have our school routine down to an art and T tends to be a little high strung. I already know it will be a battle of wills......I hope I win. :) We start summer trips next week so check back in a couple of weeks to hear all about the first one.
It was so pretty out that we went to the park to play instead of church.

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 Celebrate Christmas

  It's become tradition for T to wear a Santa hat on Christmas. Our Christmas was pretty low key. D was able to go in late so he was able to have Christmas with us before he went to work which was really nice. The kids and I packed up and moved Christmas brunch to C&H's house since he needs to stay close to home and we worried about the lack of emergency care both on the way to our house and while here. I made up a potato casserole ahead of time, brought stuff for garden scrambled eggs, and banana bread while H made a really good cranberry punch and some pigs in a blanket. I have to say for only 5 people we had a ton of food! In fact, T ate so much for brunch I don't think he really ate anything for the rest of the day. He also finished his very last hour of driving on his way back home! Driver's license here we come....next week! After the mess Axl made last time we left him in his crate, we reenforced the doors with zip ties. We also made sure to take him on a wal...

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...
