Earth Day 2012

After Alex's tball game last Saturday morning, we went to the library for a little bit and then headed to the park for the Earth Day Celebration. The kids love going and walking around. There are so many different vendors and people handing out free stuff. The kids each got a pansy and an herb to plant. They got cookies, frisbees, bags, lemonade and coloring books. There is also live music which is fun. We picked a spot near the stage and the kids had fun dancing and playing with their new frisbees. We went to the playground afterwards to play and dig in the sand. After that we went home and Emily left for the zoo with her friend Callie. The boys and I stayed outside and played with the hose and Crayola color bubbles....which I swore we would never play with again after last summer's mess....But- who cares- you're only a kid once!  By the end of the day I had some dirty, messy, and blue painted, but HAPPY children and that's all that matters! We came inside to take a bath and then went outside to play a little more. Nicky was passed out by 6:30pm. There was no waking him up. He slept all the way until the next morning.....and we started all over again. I can't wait til summer!!!
