Fall Break

Finally getting around to blogging our fall break. If you follow me on Facebook, you know I bravely took the circus on the road :) I picked up the big kids from school on Wednesday and headed home with all 5. They did AMAZING on the way down there! I only stopped once, we all went in to use the bathrooms and then I fed Crosby and we got back on the road.

We had such a great time while we were there. Bedtimes were a little challenging, but otherwise everyone did well! Here is a quick recap in pictures of our time with my family. Our girl was with us, but I have recently learned I shouldn't be posting her picture on the web for ALL to see, bummer! So I had to be selective :(

The first afternoon, you remember Caden caught a frog, well Cole was just beside himself that brother had something and he didn't, so we found Cole a bug, a close 2nd to the frog!

Once Pops finally got home from work and showered, we had some wrestling going on!
Grammy Flo got to love on Baby Crosby! My wonderful grandmother isn't doing great healthwise and this MADE HER DAY! We kept asking her if she was tired or we needed to take him, and she would almost shout NO! She was in HEAVEN on earth!

Thursday AM we took the circus to Lawton to see my other grandparents. This is Caden and Crosby with Grandma, Carter went outside quickly, and Cole actually slept half the visit!

Then we headed to Laugh Out Loud, Lawton's version of Chuck E. Cheese. Gigi and Pops let the kids play all kinds of stuff and have fun! Gigi even went on the Frog Hopper ride with the kids!

My family loves to play dice games...I always remember playing Yahtzee with Grammy and Papa, but Gigi found a new dice game, Farkle. The boys LOVE it!

Cole really just likes to throw the dice.

Carter can actually play most of the game. He came back at the end of this one and beat everyone! He was thrilled.

Caden does great! He can already add up his points. We just have a little trouble with his attitude when he loses.

On Saturday while we were all wearing orange for game day, we tried to get some pictures. Of course they all wouldn't cooperate at the same time, so I have no good ones of the 6 of us, but got some cute ones of the boys (minus Caden - groucho) and some of the girl :)

My wonderful hubby!

We had a great time, but it almost took a week to recover! Just kidding. I am so glad they all did well, and can't wait to go home again soon! Thanks Gigi and Pops for a FABULOUS time!
