Mom favs

These are just random pics from the past few days that I like!  It is fun  to go by those coin rides with the boys these days because they don't ask for money to ride them anymore.  They don't go as high or as fast as they like to go so now they just ask me to take a goofy picture of them in the ride.  The boys took me to breakfast the Saturday before mine and Dax's birthday and gave up "guy" breakfast with David to celebrate me.  David and Korwyn stayed home.  I borrowed the shirt in the bottom picture of Korwyn from a friend just because it describes her perfectly.  It says, "Yes, I've always been this happy"

Dax turns 8!!!!

We had planned on taking 3 friends along with Dax to SkyZone Sunday afternoon to celebrate the BIG 8, but they were sold out so we ventured to Discover Mills instead for a little blacklit putt-putt, some slot car action, and some cookie cake.  So thankful for flexible friends: Mooneys, Chases, and Robinsons!  Dax chose Papa Johns for supper that night so he could let me choose one meal Monday :) sweet boy!  Monday we had McDonalds for breakfast, he opened his SpyNet watch and we went to Toys R Us for the fellas to spend birthday/ Christmas money, then to Target to spend gift cards and ended at GameStop for the finale.  We met Papa for lunch at Taco Bell where the boys were mesmerized by the t.v. Supper that evening was at Olive Garden and then we cut into the Pokeball cake  to find Picachu inside!

Legoland III (nighttime)

Happy New Year! (from Lego Capital and Lego Times Square)  The park rung in the new year at "Midnight K.C.T (Kid Central Time)" also known as 7 p.m. with a fireworks display.  They gave us special glasses earlier that made Lego bricks appear at the tips of each explosion of color.  The details and robotics were amazing with Lego hot dog trucks and taxis moving up and down the streets and the "Sound of Plastic" on Broadway as well as a band marching out in front of the Capital, boats in the water running below the Golden Gate Bridge and around Ellis Island just to mention a few and yes, it was all made out of Lego bricks!

Legoland II (daytime)

Wow! There were so many great things for Legoland!  The boys rode their first roller coaster, The Dragon, and rode no more after that:) Daddy and I have to wait a couple more  years but think it will happen.  We saw Las Vegas, New York, San Francisco, Legowood, Washington, Pirate's Cove, Cape Canaveral, Washington, and so much more!  They built race cars, went to driving school, drove boats, jousted, shot targets on a moving adventure ride and played in playgrounds.  They made Lego characters and pressed pennies as well as watch a 4D Clutch Powers adventure. Dax won a stuffed bull with a water gun race and chose Sensei Woo and Cole won a stuffed lizard from a fishing game and chose a Pirates of the Caribbean Fountain of Youth Lego set from the Lego store. We visited the Cypress gardens that were amazing with cypress knots and root systems.  Korwyn was an amazing baby who played with an empty water bottle for 10 straight hours because her mom left her toys with never a tear or fuss! It was an awesome day!
