Kids Night!

Tonight we had a chiropractor appointment for Mommy and Daddy. Mikayla loves to play with the toys in the office and talk to the doctor. Everyone in the office loves to see her each month and talk with her.

After the appointment we went to Chick Fil A for dinner. Once we got there we realized it was kids night! That meant Mikayla's food was free! And she even got ice cream for free too. We enjoyed our time out together as a family and decided that we may go to Chick Fil A once a month after our chiropractor appointments. Especially since Mikayla eats for free! After she ate, we let her play on the slides for a little while. She had a blast!

Another fun family outing!

A Family Day

Today we decided to take a walk as a family. Matt usually works outside on Saturdays while I stay inside and clean, but we began this Saturday with a family walk. Mikayla loves to walk and ride in the stroller next to her sister. Calli loves being outside too!

We walked down to our new lot and Matt talked with our contractor while Mikayla played and I walked with Calli. When Matt was finished we decided that we would try to go out that evening to the park and dinner. I came home with both girls and made lunch. Mikayla cut the grass with Daddy, ate lunch and then went down for a nap. She took a great nap after being outside.

When she woke up we loaded up the van and headed for a local park. She had so much fun playing with Daddy. Mommy sat in the van with sleeping Calli. There were some other children at the park for her to play with too.

After the park we headed to the mall for sunglasses for Mikayla and then to Lowes for something for Pop Pop Krupka. After running errands, we met Mom Mom and Pop Pop at Red Lobster for dinner. It was so much fun spending the day as a family!

Airplanes take 2

Today we met our friends the Lynch's and we went to the Air Mobility Command Museum again. Mikayla loved it so much last week that we went again! Mrs. Lynch thought it was a great idea for a play date....and Nolan and Alison loved it. The kids ran from plane to plane and in the process Mikayla scraped up her leg. She didn't seem to be bothered by the scrape so I didn't look at it very closely. Later, we noticed that she was bleeding and I wiped the scrape, but it still never bothered her. She is one tough kid!

After the museum we went to Chick Fil A for lunch. The kids all ate their whole lunch and then we let them play in the play area. It was a great way for them to run off all of their energy before nap time. It worked for Mikayla because she took a terrific nap! What a fun play date.

Airplanes!

Today we took a trip to the Air Force Base Museum. The weather was beautiful and Mikayla was very excited to see airplanes. My mom and siblings came with us and Mikayla was so excited to have her aunts and uncles come too.

Later that day...

After church we all came home to Mom Mom and Pop Pop Krupka's house. We quickly ate lunch and all laid down for much needed naps. So relaxing.

When we all got up from our naps, we headed outside for an egg hunt for Mikayla. Daddy and Pop Pop hid eggs for her and she had a blast looking for them. She had no trouble figuring out exactly what she was supposed to do.

After searching for eggs and playing with them, Mikayla enjoyed just being outside at Mom Mom and Pop Pops. What a great end to Resurrection Day!

Resurrection Sunday

We began today by getting up at 4:30 to go to the Sunrise Service at church. Mommy had to get herself ready and two girls all by myself. I got myself ready and then fed Calli and dressed her. I packed her in the van and then got Mikayla up and just put her in the car in her PJ's. She loved going to church in her "jammies".

After the service we went to the huge sunrise breakfast organized by Pop Pop Krupka. It was so delicious and relaxing. It was great that Mikayla had her "jammies" on because she spilled some food on her while eating. Mommy was glad it spilled on her "jammies" and not on her new Easter dress.

After breakfast we quickly changed Mikayla and off she went to Sunday School. Church was such a blessing and Christ is Risen....Hallelujah!

Good Friday

Today we finally were able to color eggs! We bought a dozen eggs and a coloring package last week and we are finally getting around to coloring the eggs. I covered the table with news papers and put Mikayla in her high chair up to the table to keep the mess to a minimum.

She did a great job and we had very little mess to clean up. She chose each color carefully and also made special eggs for Daddy, Mommy and one for herself. It was so much fun!

Salisbury Zoo

Because I am tired of just sitting home and the weather has been beautiful, I decided to take the girls to the zoo.

My sister Kristi came with me to help...which I truly appreciated. When we finally arrived at the zoo Mikayla had a blast. She loved looking at all of the animals. The zoo was pretty crowded because it was one of the first nice days this spring.

The zoo was also pretty messy from all of the storms this past winter. There were lots of tree branches and leaves all over. Aunt Kristi and Mommy were upset, but Mikayla didn't care at all.

Here are some pictures of our adventure...
