Weekend Wrap-Up

It feels like summer around here! Mostly, because it was really warm out today, but also because we have been busy and/or outside allll weekend.  Which I love, but it means I get nothing done inside.

Anyhow, we had a{nother} good one! Wanna hear about it?

Thursday night we celebrated the April birthdays with Kent's parents and grandparents.  We ate at El Azteca (yum) then came back here for gifts.

Cutest little caballero ever. 

Most hilarious caballero ever.  I have NO idea why he made this face because he loves Mexican food and was having a great time that night.  

Friday I planned to be at my preschool conferences all day but Kylee woke up not feeling very well so I stayed home with her all morning.  By afternoon she had perked up a bit so I went to a few of my students' conferences then Kent met me for Kase's conferences.  It was so fun to really hear how Kase is getting along in school!

After that we took a stroll in my parents' backyard because it's mushroom season! Had some fun finding a few morels.

Later that night, the whole Patterson crew came to our house; Keith and Cindy picked up Leaning Tower for the kids and we had cake and did presents.  

We weren't home much this weekend, but when we were, you can guarantee Kase was playing with his "Super Guys".

Later that night Kent and I went out with the brothers Patterson and their significant others.  We ate at Exile and had the best time.  Big thanks to Keith and Cindy for watching the kids.  

Saturday morning we spent getting a few things done around the house, then Kylee had ninja warrior class.  Kael also got to do it this time and he did great! We were so happy that Keith, Cindy, Kevin, Kaity, Kyle and Julia came to watch.  The kids loved having an audience!

After class, Kylee went to my niece Brooklyn's birthday party and I hung out there for awhile too. Kent and the boys went to his cousin's son's birthday party and had a great time.  Kylee stayed over at Brooklyn's- their first cousin sleepover! They are so sweet together. 

Meanwhile, the boys and I went on a bike ride to test out Kase's new tagalong, then hit up Dairy Queen where Kael insisted on paying, using the gift card he had gotten for his birthday.  He's such a good kid and at such a fun age right now.  We declared it Best Dairy Queen Experience Ever because they were sooooo busy and severely understaffed. There were arguments on both sides of the counter, forgotten orders and complaints, but for some reason it was cracking us all up.  We waited patiently for our ice cream and it was so worth it!

Sunday after church, Kael had a soccer game, where Kylee spent most of the time in the shade of our chairs- it was HOT out! Fun game though- Kael had a good game and even scored a goal.

I heart this wagon so much. And the cuties in it.

Later in the afternoon we stopped by my dad and mom's house.  Kase and Huston had so much fun running around together!

We had to hit the grocery store on our way home as we didn't even have a drop of milk in the house.  Picked up a pizza, and as soon as we got done eating, the kids watched some TV and headed off to bed, then Kent and I enjoyed a little date night dinner together outside.

The April birthday fun continues but will wrap up this week with Kase's birthday being on Wednesday. Should be another fun week of celebrating!
