Cows, Pirates and Water Guns...OH MY!!

Remember when I said I love to be busy? I take it back! LOL This weekend has been so busy I haven't had time to think straight. Friday was the twins 4th birthday and our trip to the dairy farm. I think between 2 cameras (mine and my sister-in-laws) almost 500 pictures were taken. Yes...you read that right! It went very well. Everyone behaved well, there was no fighting and we even had great customer service! When we were getting our wrist bands the boys told the lady it was their birthday. She told them that if they got to see a baby cow born today then they were to come and tell her. My first thought was maybe they would get to pet it or something cool like that, nothing big... man was I wrong. We DID get to see a baby be born! It was an amazing thing to experience! So, of course the boys were like we have to tell "that" lady. We walk all the way back to the front, and its a long walk, and get hit by a TON of school kids coming...3 buses full. William politely tells her that the boys have something to tell her (during a break of checking in all those kids). She then hands them a stuffed cow that has a birth certificate and all. By the way...anyone can adpot one of those cows for $15...and she just GAVE each of the twins one!! What a blessing!! They were SO surprised and thanked her over and over! It was a fun filled day! Full of a bus tour to see the cow farm, eating lunch (including their amazing ice cream), getting to see a baby cow born and playing on some of the wonderful outside things they have for kids. We also had a nice lady that helped the boys wash their hands in the bathroom while I was using it. And one of the staff helped Weston when he fell and got hurt! What a blessing! I'm having a hard time deciding what pictures of the 500 to post so I'm sure you'll see more in my other post, but here's a few!

So like I said in my last post the boys birthday was a small gathering and I must say it was nice. We had a hard time getting them to agree on the same cake and then when they agreed Weston didn't understand that they were getting ONE cake to share and threw a fit because he wanted that cake. Once we finally worked it out I would have to say that they made a great choice! I would love to be one of those moms that make the cake and go all out, but I'll leave that to you creative and more talented moms. :) It was a beautiful day so we got to spend some time out side and put those water guns to use! LOL I will let the pictures explain the rest!

YES!!! Those are more water guns!! Just to clarify, those are not the ones that we bought at the store the other day...they got more!! So along with the triple slip-n-slide and about 8 water guns total we are set! Do I hear water fight?? Thats exactly what happened today. I was standing at the back door when all of sudden Isaac starts shooting through the screen door, needless to say I was the one standing there! LOL Oh yeah, can you tell that we had a pirate theme? It was great!

I almost forgot. Masons piano recital went amazingly well!! He did fantastic! I was so proud of him! He didn't mess up and got to play it through twice. He even bowed, which he was really nervous about. I am working on getting the video up and I had my mother in law take the pictures so I will dedicate a whole post to that when I get everything worked out. Did I mention I am SO proud of him! haha

It was a very eventful weekend!! Now I leave you with some of my new favorite sleeping pictures! ENJOY!! :)
