Happy St. Patty's Day!










Happy St. Patty's Day!
We took the day to go to the Phx Children's Museum and the Arizona Science Center. I of course start the day bad and forgot to dress everyone in green. Oh well... will be sure to do it next year especially with Eliza in school. Samuel and Eliza are the perfect age for this center. Which made it so nice. We loved it and being that it was a holiday it wasn't as crowded. Thank goodness! Spring break and going out with kids anywhere is difficult. It is always so packed. Well we made St. Patty crafts, played running threw the noodles, played with dried split peas (Samuel loved), played grocery shop, and decided Brooke's older kids were pretty bored. We walked over to the Science Center and had lunch. It was great seeing the kids expressions with the cow eyeball. I bribed my niece with a granola bar if she touched it (with gloves of course). I knew if Emmy would touch it, Eliza would follow. Yup! Eliza will never forget the eyeball.
Well it has been nice with the help we are receiving and hopefully will keep on getting. Suzy-Mom, Lottie and Brittany surprised me with packing my kitchen or most of it. I was so excited... I hate packing! Tauni and kids will come on Friday and help pack. I hope to get the house packed up, it is going to be a beast! Barton-Dad and Eric has done a lot to help as well. It is a miracle with all the angels we have had in our lives! Honestly!!! I cannot express my gratitude enough.
Here is some new pictures of our kids taken a couple of weeks ago. Samuel is 2 and Eliza is 4 almost 5. As you can see Samuel loves his train and it was very hard to get him to pose without it. Eliza is a natural model! So glad they turned out!
