Outdoorsy

Brian was in Dallas all this past week, so the kids and I stayed with my parents. The weather was beautiful, so we spent quite a bit of time outdoors each day. One of our favorite days was getting together with our best buddies for some playtime at the park. What's so neat about their neighborhood park is there's a little creek and some hiking trails nearby. Although Paige took one good look at the creek and proclaimed, "Disgusting." Okay, so it's not the kind of creek you drink from. Towards the end of our little hike, Paige and Joe were holding hands and discussing their favorite tv shows. It was so cute!

Valentine's Day

Paige's teacher, Miss KC, had a Valentine's party for all the kids and their siblings. I don't know who had more fun, Paige getting tons of valentine cards and candy, or Nick playing with all the classroom toys. Nick was especially in awe of the new fish tank in the room, one big tank for one teeny tiny beta. Brian and I celebrated by dropping the kids off at my parents' and heading up to the Blue Bayou restaurant in Disneyland. We also rode all the big rides that we don't get the chance to do anymore. Gotta say the big coaster at CA Adventure was a little too much for me (am I really getting that old?). But, I still love Space Mountain and the Tower of Terror. Overall a very 'love'ly day.

Blahg

I'm not sure why, but I'm having trouble blogging. I feel busier than ever with the kids. Driving to and from preschool, household chores, family activities, squeezing in time at the gym has kept me on my toes. Don't get me wrong, I love staying busy! However, it's left little time for this here blog. Part of me has been wanting to spend more time being creative with my hands instead. Yes, writing is a creative endeavor, but not one I'm completely passionate about. I guess I'm saving all my journaling for the kids' scrapbooks. So, not sure how much longer I'll be devoting to the Unit blog, but I'm certainly not ready to depart it quite yet. We shall see.
