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 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...

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 Have A Fantastic Week!

  Pickleball is always fun! Now that the weather has been nicer, albeit super windy, we have been trying to do our weekly pickleball match. Basically, this week whoever was playing with the wind won! We still have fun playing even when it is windy. In fact, playing in the wind probably makes us have more fun. The wind gusts sometimes pick the ball up and make it do some funny things, like getting the ball and pushing it back onto your side so you lose a point or blowing it three courts over! Luckily, we are usually the only ones there so it doesn't matter if we play across 4 courts. Afterwards, we usually go get some ice cream/ frozen yogurt and just enjoy our outing.  T went camping this weekend with his troop. They worked on orienteering, which I was super happy about since T needs to work on that something fierce, but unfortunately the boys in troop aren't much better than him at orienteering and the first guy oriented them upside down on the first one so they basically was...
