1.  Last Saturday we had Tate and Avery's family birthday party.  We decided to save everyone a trip and combine their parties this year.  We had decided long ago decided to play kickball at the community center.

E admitted to me as we were driving back to have the rest of the party at our house that while he loved the idea of the kickball party, he was skeptical about how it would go when everyone from age 3 to 58 were playing the same game {including some seriously competitive twenty-somethings!}...but it was really fun!

Thank you to everyone for making the party a BALL!  {More pics coming to PDP soon!}

2.  Monday I had a workshop at school all day so E decided to take the day off to be with the kids.  T had the day off as well so after Aves was at school the boys headed to Wampach's {E's favorite grease hole...er...I mean local establishment} for breakfast.

This {bad} picture was probably about the last moment everyone in our house was healthy this week.  All three kids have had the stomach flu on separate days.  We are sick of both poop and puke over here.  TMI??  So sorry.


3.  Wednesday was E's 34th birthday.  We couldn't go out because Beckett was sick that day, so E got Buffalo Wild Wings to bring home and I went and bought a cheesecake for dessert.  Sorry, E for the boring b-day, but we sure love you!

4. I have decided this week that my kids are old enough that I will now lock the door when I go to the bathroom or take a shower.  They are mature enough to survive for a ten minute shower without killing someone themselves {or a sibling} and I could really use just a few minutes of peace.  =)

5.  The cushions in our house were scarcely on the couches this week.  Between being cooped up because of winter and cooped up because of being sick our kids turned our living room into a fort, into beds on the floor, and into an obstacle course several times each day.  I ALMOST have them trained to get them back on the couch with the zippers facing the inside of the couch.  The next step will be making sure the side of the cushion with the juice stain goes on the bottom!
