 Jacob won!

After work I headed to Mom's and then we went to Vikki's house.  Melissa was there too.  We all rode with Mom to Zhenders in Frankenmuth.  Vikki and I enjoyed our free birthday dinner and desert.  We were stuffed and took enough home with us for two more meals. Mom and Melissa got the half a hot chicken sandwich meals. We opened birthday cards from Mom and Dad.  I had a Tim Horton's card in mine.  I am still enjoying my ninja coffee bar that I got for an early birthday present with Jared.  Thank you Mom and Dad!!  From there we went to Bronner's to get our birthday ornaments.  We had such a great time together.  Mom dropped us off at Vikki's and she took Melissa home.  Mom had to get to her care group.  Vikki and I stopped at Bigby for our free birthday coffee's and then headed to the mall to get a free birthday makeup gift from Sephora.  Kenzie and Travis met us there with the kids.  I gave Kenzie the rest of my coffee and my makeup gift.  We dropped the kids off at church and then Vikki took me back to my van.  When I got home the boys were working on birthday cards and Eli ran out to tell me not to look at the table.  Eli had some homework to do after he finished the card.  Jacob and I played a game of 3-13.  It was a close game!

Adam did this when he was hiding behind Daddy's chair.  Ouch! 

Had to scrap frost off the windows this morning.  It was a cool, windy day. The sun came out this afternoon and felt nice. Jacob left his instrument on the bus.  Eli made brownies and the boys had warm brownies for a snack.  Jacob and Eli helped me move some wood piles in the woods because Eli wanted to find a lizard for his school habitat project.  After dinner the boys went with Daddy to Eli’s soccer practice so they could kick the ball around.  I stayed home and worked on moving the wood that’s behind our chicken coop.  We wanted to move this wood near the fire pit   And Eli wanted me to keep looking for lizards.  The boys and Daddy helped haul wood when they got home.  We found some caterpillars which Eli is going to use for his habitat.   Jacob, Jared and I played 3-13. I won. The boys and Daddy played their glowball game until Adam got scratched bad. They stopped playing so Daddy could fix the chair.

Today was the third grade field trip to Bay City State park.  They left school shortly after 8:00 and got back around 2:30.  Daddy got to be a chaperone.

Rooker, Eli, and Kane.  

Got some chair cushions today

Heading to Adam's soccer practice.  All three boys went with Daddy so they could kick the ball around.  They had a great time.
