Happy 2013!

What a way to start off a brand new year!

I was up early (5:25am) with the 2 youngest kiddos, but by 11am I had read my Bible, showered, had a tea party, eaten breakfast, made the bed, hung up clothes and swept the living room & pick up the toys in the play room! Most days it's hard enough just for me to get a new pair of clothes on before 10, let alone try to do that and be showered.

 Today it was sunny and very warm out (mid 70's F), which we discovered when we went out to play in the back yard for a bit. Since it was so nice out, we threw some things (and ourselves) into the car and drove down to the beach. We didn't check the weather down there, and half way to the beach the sun hid behind the clouds. No problem, we still know how to have a fun time sans el sol. The girls got soaked to the bones playing in the waves, even though the water was c.o.l.d. COLD.

After splashing around we went to Pier Park and played a game of laser tag, which Israella insisted she did not want to play (as in have her own vest and gun). Well, right as the game ended she wanted to have a vest and gun. Typical. Oh and she loves to drink Dr. Pepper
(that or just the fact that it was any kind of pop).

 

After laser tag Yahaira jumped on the trampoline while Israella sat and watched (because we couldn't convince her to jump too). Then it was off to look at the Nike Factory Store and a quick stop by Panera to grab some food to go. The girls ate very well (was it because they were eating in the car?), and then they zonked out.
