The last half of March can me summed up in the photo... gatorade, jello, soup and crackers. Our family started the vomit/diaherrea tummy virus on March 5 and it was not completely over until March 25. We are so sweet that all 4 of us shared with each other and even with GPop, so our outings and activities only include a few of us most of the time.
One afternoon when Jason and Jacob were the well ones, they went to the park to look with their binoculars at birds and reptiles. Then they went to Tookie's for a big burger. It was a super fun afternoon for them!
BOth boys were well two days of spring break, so we hit the skating rink! This was our first time and there was a major learning curve. By the end, they both could skate the loop alone!!! Jacob got a wicked blister on his big toe and Rylan got one near the top of his skate, but they both loved it and are ready to go back soon! The photo below is how we saw them part of the time... as crab soccer! Those silly boys!
I loved skating with them! This was near the beginning of our time...
One morning when we were kind of well and kind of sick, we played a new game... Presidents Sequence! I found it on Pinterest and the boys LOVE it!
The other well day of SB, GPop, Granna and I took the boys to Galveston for a pirate themed day! e went to Legends first and LOVED it!!! It was very hands-on and the guide was fantastic!!!
There was a big section on Jean LaFitte, so the boys LOVED that area! They got to learn and play, so it was a win-win place!
Then we headed to Gaido's for lunch... YUM!!! It's a pretty fancy place and the boys thought they were hot stuff! We all got fried shrimp and it was just as delicious as I remembered!!
After lunch we went to Moody Gardens for a traveling exhibit about a found pirate ship, the Wydah. It's put on by National Geographic and was really good. Seeing all the pirate stuff was the perfect motivation to come home and play pirates all night! ARRR Matey!
Mrs. Sondra gave the boys these suckers for Valentine's and Rylan thought it was the best thing ever... pure sugar!
When Jacob was sick, Rylan wanted pancakes, so we made them one morning. He wanted to learn to flip them and he did a great job! We may have the next Bobby Flay on our hands!
And that's March! I am so tired of soup and smelling Lysol. Hopefully it will be a LONG time before that nasty bug comes back!!!
